Re: Emulator sounds for sale

2010-02-08 by esynthesist

One of the beta testers on eiiiforum has converted *all* OMI (UOS1/UOS2) and northstar (UOS3) banks successfully (he says).
I have translated a lot of them too.

However these banks are copyrighted - so their converted SF2 versions are copyrighted too I guess. So uploading these examples is probably illegal.

But everyone can try this out theirselves, e.g. with some Emu factory banks - most of us have at least a few of those, right ?.
