Emax

Hi,
SD II sampler suppport was dropped after V2.5, mainly because they would
have to rework the code for more recent Macs and Mac MIDI interfaces..

SD II uses a Digidesign Audiomedia card as the copy protection key. So if
you buy a cheap Audiomedia II Nubus card from ebay, you can run SD II. I can
get you a copy of SD II for a nominal cost (email me off list). You can also
sample into SD II from analog and digital sources, which is way better than
sampling into the Emax. E-mu Systems created some of their sample libraries
in the enginering UNIX computers rather than the EI, EII and Emax, with the
EIII they built a special version which is still at the Scotts Valley HQ.

Soft Synth and Turbo Synth are software copy protected, so you'd need to
find a secondhand copy...Both are well worth seeking out and have sampler
support for E-mu legacy samplers.

Regards
Rob
    Kevin, The 8100 should work fine with SDII and the Emax.. it was like
2.3
  or 2.5 that dropped sampler support I believe, anyone know which version
it
  was? I'm trying to find SDII for my 7100/75 I have laying around for my
Emax se
  and E3 for the same general purpose.
  As for the Banks on CD... I don't know of hearing about them for the emax
  but you could use a pc with dos to send the factory banks from Rob's
wonderful
  Emulator archives site, use EMX to load them into your emax, then pull
them out
  of the emax into the mac equiped with SDII and save them to the mac in
SDII
  format. It''ll take a little more time but it is the same result and it
won't
  cost you anything.
  let me know how it works out for you. anyone have a copy of SDII and or
  Turbo synth I could get? Thanks and goodluck, Nicholas Faith
