GOTEK A500 SOUND MOD LOOK AT ME IM A REAL BOY ! er... FLOPPY
I was trying the gotek "sound mod" the other night, and... I thought that it wasnt quite like an genuine A500 floppydrive... And I think many will agree.
So by solder four wires from the original floppydrive. FDD pin: 10 Drive select 0 16 Motor ON 18 Direction select 20 Step To the equal pin on the Gotek emulator. And power connector... It now sound like this |

Now make samples of the different sounds each pin makes on the drive, then use that to trigger a sound board and you can ditch the floppy drive

I would think there's some risks to doing this, and also, well, you still need a stupid floppy drive. |

Very excellent. It would be great to archieve this without the original floppy.

Yes I'm my opinion there is no replacement for a genuine rattling electro mechanical device like a A 500 floppy drive.
But I really think that the piezo speaker is a great complement if you don't have a working floppy. It was really weird running the Gotek without any sound at all.
