Well, actually you do get the equivalent of 1MB of 16 bit samples in the Emax I. A 1MB (16 bit) Emax II bank can be saved on a single floppy as a 512kB (8 bit)

wrong it records its samples in 12bit and still puts it in 12bit data in 8bits memory be it compressed but you dont get 1mb equivalant 16bit samples the memory

But that said, seeing that the emax stores its 12 bit PCM samples in a single 8 bit byte, it can record as many samples as a 16 bit sampler with 1MB of RAM.

it s not supposed to (ie designed to as a matter of course) distort the input signal, but if you have the gain cranked way up, and then put in a high level
2009-07-22 by el macaco
Why don t you try lowering the gain and see if it distorts then? + 20 dB is a lot of gain. To: emax@yahoogroups.com From: apostulate@yahoo.com Date: Tue, 21

Also, it s 1 MB, not MG. MG is for milligrams.

I was trying out my Emax I the other day and set the input level to like 20db s and on playback I got a really distorted, crunchy sound throughout the sample.
