Sinclair QL Archive

Since 2016, OutSoft and MaxRaf (Spectrum Box) have jointly carried out the Sinclair QL preservation project. OutSoft created the dumps from original media; MaxRaf handled archiving, cataloguing and the lists of preserved material. µDump 2 was developed by Daniele Terdina, author of Q-emuLator, from an idea by OutSoft and MaxRaf, improving the quality and success rate of Microdrive acquisitions. This phase builds on Outsoft’s early software transfers to PC emulators in the 1990s.
