General Sampling question

2012-11-12 by freddy1771994

Hi,

I have to admit that I simply don't fully understand the sampling and the looping process on the Emax. I don't understand at all how the EMU engineers managed to create 'The Bliss Disk' bank for the Emax I for instance. I mean they saved incredibly much information in that small memory.

How can I work that efficient as they did?
I just sampled a bit again. Recorded the Arturia ARP2600 in audacity, saved that as a wav and loaded that via the EMuSer into the Emax. The result is amazing since there is no data lost, but I had to waste almost the half of the memory.

Everytime when I try to loop something, let's say I loaded a single waveform into the Emax, I get a horrible detuned dental drill and I can do what I want, it doesn't get better.

Does anyone knows the 'trick' how to choose the loop points so that I can work memory efficient, maybe you have also other hints.

Thank you very much,
Freddy
