Back up / Second copy

[simploerob]

is it worth keeping 2 floppies of the same show ? with all the talk or broken floppies and drives don't want to loss it all just befroe a performance!!!!

 

can you save a set up to a pen drive even thought you can not run it from there?

 

and would you have to have phantom frog running on the computer to tracesfer the set up to floppy?

You can transfer any Frog show file onto your PC for safe storage using a standard windows PC. Of course, as you pointed out, you won't be able to load the show into the desk without using a floppy disk, but any sort of storage media should accept the show file.

 

As for whether a second floppy disk is worthwhile, I would say yes. Floppy Disks use magnetics to store the data, and are susceptable to problems with reliability.

 

 

Hope this helps

no reason i can't save a copy or phantom on to the pen drive as well?

 

just in case i need to use it on a completely different computer?

Yeah no reason why you couldn't copy the show file across onto a flashdrive.

copied the phantom frog folder over to the pen drive so don't even have to install it on a computer to have access to it!!!!

 

thanks for help
