alchemy is in the files section of this group. Use alchemy if you get
a mac, it has rs-422 support which is faster than midi-sds. On a pc
use Soundforge for midi-sds, it's well established as being
compatible with an emax and you can set your loop points within
soundforge which makes the process a bit faster. If you can't afford
sony soundforge right now then download the .torrent (it's out there
somewhere) and buy it later if you like.
