Re: Where are E-MU products made?

2004-02-03 by Fab Claxton

epilogue0282,
I'm not doubting you, but how did you find out about this info? I 
don't know a lot about E-MU, but from my understanding, they only 
introduced the Command Station line in 2001, right? Why would a 
company discontinue an entire line of products after only 3 years of 
development/availability. That's weird. Are they planning on coming 
out with a newer type of Command Station for these new sound cards, 
or are they only going to be computer based? I hate using software - 
I need a big piece of machinery with lots of buttons and tweakable 
knobs on it. :)
