Yes, the Emax's use of very non-standard sample rate can be a bit tricky to work with, 
so can the fact that they are 12 not 8 or 16 bit samples. However that really only 
becomes an issue on older software and soundcards that can only play back 8 or 16 bit 
samples. It's one of the reasons why the Emax II can accept 44.1kHz 16 bit samples 
though it can make samples that high itself.
