I meant to say variable sample rate here, I didn't notice
the brain fart...

I dunno, I just vaguely remember them advertising that 
the Emax could transpose over 8 octaves without aliasing, 
or something like that, and I've lately been somewhat 
obsessed with the "best of both worlds" combination of 
zero order hold harmonic images on the low end and no
aliasing on the high end.
