Floppy no more...
We live in times when technology of a few years ago is replaced with newer, smaller and faster technology and this has been the case with the very popular Rodgers PR-300 MIDI module, later upgraded to the R-300S.
This module as actuality two modules in one - a voice module with MIDI instruments and a sequencer that records and plays back anything played on organ stops and also on the MIDI instruments in the module itself.
Four years ago we began searching for a USB drive replacement unit and were told that they were available - but none of them worked. We finally came across an engineer in Italy who told us why and, encouraged by his comments, we continued to search out and finally found a unit.
6 weeks of testing and the unit works very nicely.
The PR-300/s floppy drive was limited to storing only 99 MIDI song files. The USB drive unit has 999 banks for storing information from floppy drives.

I'm just reading this post as I search for a replacement for our PR-300S. Do you have a suggestion? We have a Rodgers Trillium T837 organ.
