Emax

I've found the best way to chop is using an old-school Mac
and Alchemy 3.0 with a custom made serial cable. Details
can be found here:

I use a Mac IIci with a Digidesign Audiomedia II sound
card. The sound card isn't needed but if you dont have one
you will have to audition your edits using the Macs
built-in 8-bit audio which works ok but doesnt integrate
well with the rest of the gear in my studio.

The coolest thing about Alchemy is that it supports a whole
slew of older samplers. You can sample on the EMAX , send
the sample over the serial cable to the mac , edit , save,
whatever then send it to another sampler, say an Akai S1100
- over SCSI or midi. It will also let you work the other
way around and translate / send samples to the EMAX from
another sampler.
