Emax

Hey guys,

I am trying to set up my Emax so that when I press a pad on my Alesis
HR-16, I hear a drum tone from the Emax. Currently, I am hearing just
a very short portion of the drum sample. I had the sum trouble with my
Ensoniq EPS, and was able to remedy this using a special 'percussion'
envelope setting.

I assume that a similar solution is available on the Emax 1, but I am
not too familiar with the unit. Could someone please describe the
process which I would have to go through to make this happen?

Thanks!

Drum - to - MIDI triggers are working in that way, that you don´t have a MIDI Note-off, this means, that you have to make longer the release of your samples VCA inside the Emax to hear the full sound.
As I am user of the Emax2 with plenty experience of Drum triggers, I think, it´s just like this.

Try this VCA settings:

A        0
H        0
D        32
S        0
R        22

or if necessary, the release longer.

Hope that helps. Let me know how it works.
