Emulator 5

Emulator 5

2002-06-18 by boomtap

the new sampler - Emulator 5 Latest word is that it will be a full 
functional Software sampler. Will this software allow us to burn our 
own samples into the XX-7's 32 MB Flash ROM without the E4 Ultra 
hardware. And if so would the sound be sent through the usb 
connection or the midi ports. How much would this software cost and 
when will it be release to the public.



Thanks ahead of time.

Peace
Al

The XX-7 doesn't have the capability to burn ROMs, so sending the sounds via USB wouldn't do any good; it will only recognize .smf files and XX-7 preset files, hence you'll still need an E4 around to do any burning.

That'll be a great combo to have; an E4 Ultra and the E5 software.� I'm anticipating you'll be able to create instruments in the E5 that your E4 will be able to read.� You'll be able to use your favorite sound editor to make your sounds, then use the E5 to export them to an E4 readable disk.

Haven't heard anything on the price.� There's more info on the E5 here:

There's already a Yahoo groups mailing list where you can get E5 info, although as of right now it's completely dead.

The question came up at an XX-7 seminar at the Guitar Center here in STL; we were told it couldn't burn ROMs.

That's right, isn't it?

I'm certainly no expert, but I'm guessing it can burn ROMs, it just lacks 
the software to organize and prepare them ala the Emu samplers.  The guy 
who posts the Emu XX-7 tech tips in the Newsletters (Larry something or 
other) is a Midwest US Sales Rep, we met once at a seminar where I bought 
my XL-7 and were talking about this, thus my info.  Will the E5 let XX-7 
users burn their own ROMS without a sampler?  Can't say but it would 
certainly put the XX-7's at the top of the 'groovebox' food chain, 
something I'm sure Emu is aware of...
