          @techdisk42 Oh! also check this out... trying out new ways to drive floppies! there is less visible movement, but in exchange you get more sound, and clearer tone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxbZN7IJM2E

            @nlghtmaremoon Hm. your vibrating the head back and forth, arent you? try wiring the drive select with the step pins, then point the camera at the front LED. awesome will ensue.

              @techdisk42 I am, it allows me to do 1 wire control... But doesn't look as cool. I will give that a shot, I was going to look in to how to flash the light next...

                @nlghtmaremoon The drive b select pin (pin 12) is what you need. Thats the one that turns on the light. wiring that [i]with[/i] the input to the step pin (whenever you send a pulse to step, you also send one to drive select b) will flash the light at the same frequency as the pulse.
