Mine arrived set as S1, so I just moved the jumper to S0. The instructions also mention setting jumper S0 which a quick Google revealed means ‘Disk 0’. I then updated it with the relevant parameters for Akai samplers which in my case were… Using a USB drive formatted as FAT32, I created a file in the root directory called ‘FF.CFG’ The Gotek I ordered already had FlashFloppy pre-installed, so I went to their Github page to see what configuration settings were needed. All being well, it should then look something like this… Once separated, you can then mount the Gotek onto the metal chassis, connect the power and IDE cables to it and finally reattach the chassis to the S2000 itself via the 4 screws on the underside. This gives you access to a further 4 screws which secure the floppy drive to the metal chassis. Removing the old floppy drive is just a case of removing 4 screws from the underside of the S2000 as well as the power and IDE cables.
Swapping the Floppy Drive for the Gotek emulator Have started work on upgrading my Akai S2000, so thought I’d capture some notes for posterity on how to get the Gotek floppy emulator working.
