Re: [emax] The Voynich Swan Song* for Emax track

2005-11-11 by s*

Well, I started off with my emax and made many songs with it alone.  It is totally possible to make a great song with one machine, it just takes work.  Now I have a pretty decent studio with lots of gear which can create a much more full dynamic range of sounds.  That being said, depending on a songs intention, sometimes simplifying the song to one machine can be what makes it cool.  I have heard a few amazing albums composed almost entirely on an Emulator II alone. In some cases a full album of songs made on 1 sampler could definitely lack some luster though.  I just don't know if I agree with making a generalized statement that a good song cannot be made with 1 sampler because music is totally subjective.

  Hi,

  You might personally find it interesting - a track made using just my
  Emax SE.  A song made from one synth yes is very interesting - but a
  song using a sampler? well....it's a bit like saying I made a track
  just using my PC....it doesn't really hack it - what do you think? :D

  My Emax is going to make room for the Juno 106 I picked up recently. 
  Here's a tribute to my Emax.  Sad I know but inspiration can come from
  bizarre sources!

  Don't worry I'm not leaving the Emax camp completely.
