RE: [xl7] OT: Quick EMU Ultra sampler question

2003-05-16 by Stu

Yeah that's right. When they say 16-part they really mean that it's got 16
midi channels... and even then you can have more than one layer per channel
(up to 32 in fact)... so the only real limits are the fact that one key can
trigger a max of 32 layers, and you have 64 voices in total, which means you
can 64 different sounds playing at any one time.

If you get an E6400U or above, there is the option to expand to 128 voices,
but considering this option costs more than a new E5000, it hardly seems
worth it...

Regards,

Stu

  I am about to order an EMU E5000 Ultra and, before I do, I have a
  quick question for any EMU EOS sampler owners.  What exactly defines
  a part?  The E5000 is 16-part multi-timbral.  Does this mean that a
  drum kit, for instance, could be considered as one part?

  PS I also posted this in the E5000 group, but I need a quick answer
  and the XL group is more active.
