| PCMCIA Memory Cards for
Alesis Keyboards / Synthesizers
|
We have sold lots of PCMCIA cards to customers for their Alesis synthesizers since 1997.
Our PCMCIA static RAM (SRAM) cards are proven to work with the Alesis
Andromeda A6, QuadraSynth
Plus, S4, S4 Plus and QS Series synthesizers.
Alesis synthesizer uses type I PCMCIA* expansion card (or QCard) up
to 8MB memory capacity for both sample and program data storage. The Alesis
Sound Bridge sample transfer utility allows the user to transfer custom
samples to Flash RAM or SRAM cards from a PC or MAC computer.
(Cards larger than 8MB
may be used, but only the first 8 MB of data can be utilized by Alesis
synthesizer.)
* Personal Computer Memory Card
International Association (PCMCIA):
There are three types of PCMCIA cards: Type I card is 3.3 mm thick and is
used for fast access memory storage such as SRAM or Flash memory. Type II
card is 5.0 mm thick and is used for I/O applications such as modem or
ethernet card. Type III card is 10.5 mm thick and is used for mass data
storage such as ATA hard drives card. Alesis synthesizers use Type I cards
only.
Alesis synthesizer's type I PCMCIA slot is compatible with QCards, SRAM, and
flash cards (up to 8MB) with 200ns access time or faster.

Special sales
to reduce the overstocking of SRAM cards for a GE
contract.
*Attribute
memory
is used for Card Information Structure (CIS)
storage. The CIS describes the characteristics and capabilities of the SRAM
PCMCIA card so the host system can automatically configure it. Some devices
need this optional attribute memory for CIS. Please check your device's documentation or contact the device manufacturer
to determine if the optional attribute memory is required or not. If your
device requires no attribute memory, you do not need to purchase SRAM cards
with attribute memory. [There is no performance difference
between the 8KB and
2KB attribute memory. Devices accept SRAM cards with 2KB attribute
memory can also accept SRAM cards with 8KB attribute memory.]
If you are not sure whether the attribute
memory is required by your devices or not, it is recommended to choose the
SRAM memory cards with attribute memory because:
(1) SRAM cards with attribute memory are more compatible with most
devices. Most of the devices accepting the SRAM card without attribute
memory can also accept the SRAM card with attribute memory. [Exception: Some precision agriculture data loggers like the AG yield
monitors can only use the SRAM cards without attribute memory.]
(2) Windows 2000, XP, and Vista only
support SRAM cards with attribute memory.
To read/write SRAM cards without the attribute memory, in systems running
Windows 2000 and XP, you need
Third Party Software Packages for SRAM PC Card
or special SRAM
card reader such as OMNIDriveUSB Pro, etc. ** The Pretec SRAM card contains a replaceable but
non-rechargeable 3V lithium battery and an on-board rechargeable but
non-replaceable battery for data retention. The replaceable lithium
battery normally last 1 ~ 2 years
Warranty & Support:
- 3 year
for Pretec SRAM memory cards.
- Free technical support from Amtron
Technology and the respective manufacturers.
