The RS422 port on the Emax requires external clocking (by the computer) at 500Khz, and I don t think the geoport-enabled Macs support clocking external

The Emax II manual is still available from emu s website into the legacy hardware support, for free off course as a pdf document fyi ! cheers laurent

... Stupid question, does the Emax II have a similar Sysex implementation as the Emax? On the link above, I find a sysex manual for Emax I, but not for Emax

I don t know if this will help any (I haven t dealt with SysEx a lot), but The Emulator Archive has a manual library for the Emax here:

I use the mod wheel to control filter cutoff. It works pretty well with the mpc60 sequencer. 6 controllable real time parameters isn t that bad, especially

According to the MIDI implementation chart on page 135, the Emax only sends real-time controller information for mod wheel, pitch bend and sustain pedal.

Okay Emax hackers, ever need to reboot your Emax I SE/HD running Plus OS 1.0? Simply do the following, which will trigger a bug which will reboot your Emax: 1)

It might work, make sure you are running Mac OS 7.6.1 or 7.5, it doesn t seem to transfer correctly if you running anything higher. I highly suggest making the

hi the best way to chop samples is using sound forge or recycle, and dump the samples via midi. works great, and you can use 44.1khz samples!!! cheers chip

I ve found the best way to chop is using an old-school Mac and Alchemy 3.0 with a custom made serial cable. Details can be found here:

2007-11-06 by Dave Sotnick
No, you can copy the voice before you truncate it. If you copy the preset to another preset before you make the truncation, the Emax will say Used Elsewhere.

Very true!!! i find the emax puts a real oomph on complete beats. it works best for me sampling complete beats and then put them back into the drummachine.

If you want extra noise just make sure you don t sample at the optimum level. That way you don t make use of the best signal/noise ratio, i.e. you sample with
