Hi Steven,
go to users.skynet.be/EMXP and download EMXP software with Omniflop
software. You can now with a PC download, convert and exchange all
sounds created for Emax 1 and 2. You can find sounds here ( files )
and download many factory soundbanks from hermannseib.com. John
Silveria has recently added on his website a full soundbank for Emax
2. You can convert many of them to Emax with EMXP. Good luck. We have
a sunny Christmas in Paris. Happy holidays to you.
