E-mu Emax SE: Formatting Disks (Basic)


YouTube via TheSynthFreq | January 05, 2011 |

"Hi!! :) Here is my attempt at explaining how to format floppy disks for the E-mu Emax SE sampling synthesizer. Formatting floppies for the Emax SE is a two part process that can be a little confusing.
Note: the odd sound quality of my speech is due to a cold and a hearing impairment, not the mic.
If there any part you don't understand, please comment and i will do my best to clarify it! :)

Please enjoy!

E-mu Emax SE: "Shall we play a game?" (War Games, computer) & Other Samples


YouTube via TheSynthFreq | January 05, 2011 |

"LOL!! I just couldn't resist! I had to sample the famous "Shall we play a game?" sample from the awesome 80s classic movie, "War Games". Its the voice of the computer "Joshua", a talking computer/speech synthesizer."

emax se: Chorus Synth strings

"emax se: Chorus Synth strings patch. (Its a little distorted!)
I sampled a generic string patch from Motif-6, and added the E-mu's chorus to it and modified the ADSR (amp) to give it a slower attack time, as well as a release time that is appropriate"

Trojan Viruses in VSTi's?

See the comments in this post. Anyone experience one in a VSTi? I've been on the fence posting lesser known software based synths. On the one hand I want to promote people new and experimenting, on the other, bad seeds are always a risk. Feel free to comment.

Update via X-Dark in the comments: "Please read this as well : http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=286095&start=0"

Update via Mr. Soza in the comments: "ZoneAlarm False Positive.

The main DLL file actually appears to be clean.
I checked it out myself.
(FYI - I used to write AV signatures & am a malware/security engineer by day).

Infected VSTi's are not new, this primarily affects "cracked" software and stuff you grab from P2P networks.
Though its always possible even for legit sites / apps to be compromised by bad guys so you do have to be somewhat cautious on the internet in general.

My advice to all is be suspicious of anything you download.
Especially when it comes from P2P, blogs or file share sites like RapidShare, MegaUpload, etc...

When in doubt, submit the file(s) to Virustotal for a scan against all the major AV vendors.
Go to www.virustotal.com and upload the files (unzip them first).

To see the results for this VSTi in question, go here

As you can see 0/43 AV products marked this VSTi as an infected file.
So either it's clean or these guys are among the best virus writers on the planet to evade AV detection like that.

Hope that helps my fellow music heads & props to Matrix Synth !!!"
