Re: [emax] Not being able to monitor samples while sampling on the EMAX 1

2008-03-20 by Tristan Upton

A lot of the prized grit and punch of the SP12 comes from the more crude 
sample playback transposition method. I believe the SP12 is actually true 12 
bit all the way through too, whereas the Emax 1 uses 12 bit A/D and D/A 
conversters but 8 bit compressed storage. So the type of distortion will be 
different between the two. For added "punch" you can of course clip the 
signal going into the Emax A/D when you sample. 

Regards,
