New user with - guess what - some questions!

2000-11-20 by Steve Adam

Hi everyone

I can't believe I've gone so long without realising this list was here! I've
been a dedicated Emax user since I got one the last new keyboards back in
1993 - still my only sampler and I've no intention of giving up on it yet.
Nice to see there's still some other people who share my devotion.

Can I kick off with a few questions? Firstly, I've started using it to play
live and I've been looking for a decent carrying bag for it but since the
Emax isn't really standard size I'm having some trouble! Can anyone
recommend somewhere? It would need to be somewhere that would mail order to
the UK.

Secondly, I've just discovered that I can transfer .WAVs into it via MIDI at
44 KHz using Sound Forge. Again, something I've been living in blissful
ignorance of for some time! Anyway, I just wanted to check that they get
played back at 44KHz too (I know the max sample rate is 39 but I'm sure I
read somewhere that this is only a limitation on the way in via the on board
sampling). I don't plan to go overboard with this as it takes a bit longer
than I'm used to - but it seems like a good idea for things like high hats
and so on, unless anyone can give a good reason why not!

Steve
