Floppy Disc replacement with an SD Card
I have an electric Organ made by the Italian Company ORLA - the model is GT9000. It has a 3.5" floppy disc for storage and replay of MIDI files and I would like to replace that with an SD Card. I have made extensive moidifications to the organ, including the addition of a third keyboard, a Nextion 7" touch panel and a V3Sound Grand Piano XXL Synthesizer. These are all linked by a cluster of MEGA 2560 boards for which I wrote all the software. I am aware of modules which carry out this function ( Gotek, Lothartec, etc ), but they are all unreliable, or simply too expensive. Does anyone have experience of these units, or any knowledge of using an Arduino to do the same thing?
