Re: EMAX I / II

2004-09-07 by angeyoda

Well, thanks very much for your precisions...
Do you think the sound will be as much as granular in the Emax than 
in a fairlight ? or close to it ?
What fairlight do you think  it is ? The fairlight CMI II ?  

what about the EMU II, it seems having some same sort of sounds ...

Many thanks again.
Patrice.
