Emax

why are you sampling this way totally useless and a waste of memmory the reason you sample stereo is to catch the stereo feild of a recording sounds that are on the left and not the right and vice versa

from a mono source just sample it mono as it has no stereo field if you want it stereo then put it through an effects machine and sample the stereo output

ore sample it mono then use the lfo to pan the sample in the stereo field that way you save memory and its stereo on the way out of the machine

    Hello Daniel,

  I would say the output of your soundcard is balanced TRS, where the
  tip and ring carry the same mono signal but with inverted polarity.
  However, the Emax II sampling input uses the tip and ring of the TRS
  plug as unbalanced left and right signals. So when you sampled in
  stereo you were not getting stereo, just normal and inverted mono
  signals. If you want to sample in stereo with your present cable then
  try plugging into a stereo TRS output like a headphone socket.
  Otherwise you will need a Y adapter plugged into the Emax II sampling
  input so you can connect it to separate left and right unbalanced mono
  signals.

  Regards,

  Tristan
