Re: Emulator sounds for sale

...perhaps I could remind the members of the group that EMXP allows almost 100% conversion of EII SD soundbanks to SoundFont2 :-)

I specifically added this SF2 support to EMXP to make sure that vintage EII banks like the ones from OMI would survive in modern (soft)samplers.
I've chosen SoundFont2 because it's a documented standard and because it is supported by almost all modern (soft)samplers.
