I owned an EIII until about five years ago. It had a beautiful sound because of the analog filters and vcas. I admit that I sold it in a moment of pure stupidity.
ReplyDeleteI now run the somewhat snazzy EmulatorX software (which will load my old libraries), but it's not the same. By the way, EmulatorX2 and ProteusX2 will be announced at NAMM in a couple of days - over 30 new features and a paid upgrade path from the original X series.
By the way, the new Emulator X2 software will include the Transform Multiply functionality that was included in several classic E-mu samplers (The Emax and Emax II for sure). It's a DSP convolution tool that is well known for the bizarre textures it creates. They're also automating multisampling of your fave synth patches with a tool called SynthSwipe.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Think these might deserve their own post. As for the EII, there's been some talk on AH about it being the warmest. People swear by it.
