Hello everyone, I'm new to all this and looking for sample libraries.  Emulator archive states 
that the 3 OMI cd's are still available, but I can't seem to find them on www.quparts.com.  
Any ideas?  Anyone?  Anyone?  Bueller...  
Also, do I need a seperate cd-drive for the mac classic in order to transfer the samples from 
cd to mac to E II?  Thanks in advance,
Martin

Hi
The Emulator Archive still supplies a Mac serial cable for connecting the
EII to a Mac, along with Sound Designer for EII Mac software and a free CD
with a variety of professional EII sample banks including OMI.

Thanks Rob,
great site by the way - really cool.  So do I need some sort of external CD drive for the Mac 
Classic in order to run all this stuff?  Or do I use the cd to make disks on a pc to use in the 
Mac?
Cheers,
Martin

Hi
Thanks :-)
 
Yes the legacy Mac needs an internal or external CDROM drive. Its a Mac CD
with 500 EII sample banks...so putting them on floppy is not an option..
contact me on rob@... for more details.

Just want to add that I didn't use a Mac CD-drive when I received 
this great CD from Rob. 
I've put it in my WinXP PC and used the trial version of MacDisk to 
copy all files from that CD to my PC and then from PC to a ZIP disk 
for Mac.
But in that case of course you'll need a SCSI zipdrive for your Mac 
and a zipdrive connected to your PC.
Don't know if that's anything better :-)

By the way: this CD-ROM from emulatorarchive is really a "must have": 
there are a lot - and I mean really a LOT - of vintage banks on it. 
I've seen people paying hundreds of dollars/euros to buy only a small 
part of this set on Ebay (on floppy).

Volume I & II are here: http://www.quparts.com/pricelist.pdf

Volume III is available as floppies here:
http://www.northstarsamples.com/EIIFloppies.html

Speaking of which, ///E, how's the new EMXP coming along?

I work with the current version often.  Great program.  I eagerly await the
ability to export EIII banks or soundfonts for use in Kontakt.

Thanks!

The next version is coming... probably next month. New features will be 
at least full support for Emulator II and translation from Emax (I/II) 
to Emulator II. Maybe also the other way around. Currently I'm using 
already Emax factory banks on my EmuII and it sounds great, but it 
still requires some finetuning of the parameter tables, esp. the cutoff 
frequencies.

Additional Emu-III features will be part of the next-next version. The 
process of reverse engineering the Emu-III has been completed though so 
I have the full specs now. 
SoundFont 2 support will be developed in parallel, I don't know when it 
will be released.
SoundFont 2 will probably replace Akai S1000. I don't think anyone is 
using the Akai features and I guess SoundFont 2 is a better way of 
providing a "bridge" between EMXP and other translation software.
