Emax

Hi,
EMX has to run native as the boot disk, not under Windows. Its because it
needs direct control of the floppy to write where no Win program has gone
before....EMX is not easy to get running.

The Emax was designed just after MIDI sample dump was specified, so its not
the best implementation but you can get samples in and out of the old
sampler using this approach. I even moved samples from the Emax to a Peavey
SP using MIDI SDS.

E-mu no longer support legacy products and the sample libraries have long
since gone from the Scotts Valley offices. There is not even an Emax in the
building anymore, just a few at employees homes! We do support Emax users
and are happy to provide copies of the factory diskettes if our costs are
covered. Email me off list at rob@... with an idea of what
type of samples you want, and how many diskettes you want. We have 600 to
choose from.

Regards
Rob

  I just wanted to thank everyone for their support.  I have tried
  everything to get some sample sounds downloaded to my Emax.  Nothing
  seems to work.  I tried running emx under dos (currently using
  Windows 98) and all I got when I put the disk in my emax was a CRC
  error.  All I was hoping for was that someone out there would help me
  by copying some of their disks.  I would have sent blank disks and  a
  money order for return postage.  Why couldn't Emu use a windows based
  program or a way to download thru midi from the computer.  The
  technology has been out there for quite a while.  It looks like I'm
  going to be getting rid of this thing, it is too much of a pain in
  the butt.  I also wrote to Emu to see if by chance they had some
  disks, of course they didn't.  I don't know how to get any other
  sounds out of this thing other than the ones that came on the rock
  pack.  I don't have the money to put scsi on my computer.
  Thanks

  PS;  I didn't put the viruses on the site.
