Emax

Hi all

This is just a small message to let you know that I (pre)released the 
newest version 2.05 of EMXP.

Besides some small bug fixes and enhancements, the major new feature 
is the extended support for Emulator III and Emulator IIIX samplers.
Version 2.05 should be able now to convert soundbanks between Emax, 
Emax-II, Emulator-II, Emulator-III and Emulator-IIIX.

I tested this version during more than one month in my own studio. I 
hope I removed all bugs :-) but I can't guarantee since the software 
is becoming more and more complex.

Please note that translated soundbanks don't always sound like the 
original ones on the original sampler...
...just to say that during the tests and finetuning of the v2.05 
translation engine I was impressed again by the unique character of 
each of these vintage Emu samplers. It's really almost impossible to 
let a voice sound exactly the same on each of these machines.

The EMXP software is freeware and can be found in the files section 
of the Emax Yahoo Group or on the EMXP website 
(http://users.skynet.be/emxp)
 
Have fun

Hi Kris,

Very cool... Thanks for all the hard work!

As an aside - down you know where I can find disk images of the original EII
and EIII factory disks?

Cheers,

Mike.

Hi Mike, 

The factory disk images of both EII and EIII are only commercially 
available.
The EII images are sold by www.emulatorarchive.com. It's one CD with 
a huge collection of soundbanks.
The EIII images can often be found on ebay and other online 
auctions/shops; it's an 8 volume CD-ROM package.
