how did you make it do the warm up sequence?,

@SuperSmashDolls oops

@everett1911 I just said that 2 comments ago.

@SuperSmashDolls actually, it's also because bubble memory was pretty fragile - it was very sensitive to electromagnetic interference.

ほんとに好きです。 (^-^)

@poopskinTheLiar The Bubble System board failed for that reason - Bubble Memory in general failed simply because hard drives got cheaper and faster.
(Which incidentally is why flash is starting to replace hard drives in portable devices.)

@SuperSmashDolls ah.Well, bubble memory never caught on for a reason, i guess. I do have a old portable computer (the Seequa Chameleon) that operates off Bubble Memory, but it doesn't show a countdown while warming up - The screen's just blank until it's ready to start the RAM tests and boot to DOS.

@poopskinTheLiar AFAIK the Bubble System board was discontinued before Gradius even hit the US; the unshielded speaker and degaussing coils in your average arcade cabinet had a tendency to erase the magnetic storage the game was on. Existing Bubble System games were redesigned for regular ROM storage; sometimes reissued under different names (Gradius became Nemesis).
So no, you would have never heard this anyway.

You should have got a MU100R instead and upgraded it with PLG boards, although I have three MU100Rs with six different PLG boards. Monster setup!

also... i ordered this box :-) so i can make some COOL music
I have the MU100. It sucks!!! I'm going to sell it to buy something Roland or Korg.

@demofactory
Software Synthesizer now mainstream.
MU2000 and MU100 are outdated.

Today I found all these MU2000 videos here on YouTube. I never knew about that little box. What are the differences to a MU128? Looks pretty much the same...

MU2000 and MU128 differences are as follows:
USB support.
Increase in sound bank expansion.
Additional types of Insertion Effect.
Roland's GS standard official response.
Additional optical digital audio output.
Stereo User Sampling memory 4MB.
3.3V Smartmedia Flash memory Support.
Change front panel color.(Silver -> Gold)
