EmulatorII-list

I hear where you are going, but it's so subjective.. Some drum machines use Curtis Chips for their filters, some use SSM.. some use envelope shaping of the VCA & filter, some don't.
   
  I've got this crazy disk for the Emulator 1, and it lets you sample in drum sounds, then converts them to the right format for an EEPROM burner attached to you Emu1 so you can burn Samples for your Drumulator.. but it even mentions in the manual, that the sample will not sound the same on your Emulator 1 as the drumulator unless you bypass the Emu1's filters!
   
  But if you are real keen..
   
  There is a little application floating around that converted wav -->8  bit binary for DMX's , Linndrums, Drumulators, Drumtraks etc.. 
  I used it a few times to burn custom sounds for my Linn etc, and the application converts from 8 bit binary --> wav.. so that would be a start.

  The binarys you seek are out there.. check out the yahoo linndrum group for some.. also the DMX ones are pretty easy to find too.
   
  Good luck.

          Hi Kenneth,

thanks for reply, i would appreciate if someone would put into
files/database some of them. 

just to clearing my point, no need of any sampled sounds (anything
first played by drum machine, then recorded with sound card, then
sampled with EII). 

i´m looking for a banks created by a raw conversion.

drum machine -> eprom ripped -> binary conversion -> EII format

so EII is playing actual drummachine data..
