Re: [emax] Re: emax to .aif or wav conversion

2004-12-22 by John Silveria

Chris your program is one of the ones I've tried and not that I don't completely appreciate 
the effort but what I'm left with, even with banks that I've created the samples for, doesn't 
sound like the originals. I assume this is due to not knowing the original sample rate? 
Isn't there also the issue that it's creating 16 bit samples out of em1 files which are 
actually 12 bit samples? I believe the unwritten rule is that em1 files are from Emax 1 
banks and em2 files are from Emax II banks. For me it was just something I 
experimented with. I imagine with some effort in Sound Forge I could edit the results 
back into something that sounds like the original samples.
