As I understand it, transferring data as audio goes back quite ways, right?
I had a Commodore 64 that could use phillips tape. I'm drawing. blank, but IIRC there were musical instruments (maybe the roland juno 60?) in the 80s that were storing their data as audio, too.
Yus, apparently some software was broadcast on the radio, people could record it on tape and use it on their Commodore and such.
Yeah, Juno-106 as well.

Yep, that's correct about the Juno 60. There are people still sharing WAV files of the original factory patches which is cool to be able to re-load now and again.
