Hello Chip,

I think Robert Smith had an Emulator 2 so it could also have been
that.

Good to see someone still using their Emax live :) I used to use an
Emax 2 live back in the early 90s and it always felt good to play on
stage (weighty and solid). The Emax 2 also had a great sound for live
use, a bite and grain that would really cut through on the PA.
Eventually I replaced it with a K2000 but that just didn't have the
same feel or tone as the Emax 2 :P

I bought a couple of Emax 2 racks recently but am still trying to get
them working. I should never have sold my keyboard back in the day!
