Special Turbo 2000 Copiers and Tools

ChainCopy

A Cassette > RAM > cassette copier for the Czechoslovak Turbo 2000.

ChainCopy converts segmented binary load files stored in the “Binary Turbo” format (file type 04) to the “Turbo 2000 – ChainLoading” format. The copier also copies other Turbo 2000 file types – these are copied unchanged. The copier offers buffer size of 52 KB.

BACKUP T/D

BACKUP T/D is a Turbo 2000 tape preservation toolkit for 8-bit Atari computers. The toolkit consists of 3 components: 1. Utility disk (to backup and restore your tapes), 2. Extractor (extracts data from the utility disk), 3. UDMan (Program for PC to manipulate utility disks).

For tape preservation, the toolkit allows you to use the most efficient means:

  1. Your data recorder with a Turbo 2000 upgrade to read and record tapes.
  2. Extended memory of your Atari computer to allow 64 KB buffer for data
  3. Floppy disk drive replacement/emulator to store the preserved data
  4. Computer emulator to extract the preserved data for further processing
