Re: [xl7] Re: which E-mu sampler?

2003-01-27 by Silverman

The Emu hard drive mounting kit is a complete rip off,its basically
4 screws,ide cable(or scsi) and a power cable (non standard).
All these components can be bought from a computer store for
a fraction of the price.However I believe a standard computer
IDE drive power cable may need to have 2 of its pins/wires
swapped around.

I lurve my E6400 it kicks ass!!
craps over soft samplers for sound quality, filters, transposition
etc:))
