RE: E-Mu 1812m - wow!
but have you tried the POWERFX?... I ask cos i'm just getting time now to try it and it fails miserably in both SX2 and LOGIC 5, logic it simpoly just falls apart as soon as you add the power fx on an insert or send bus (norman cook style stretchy noise) and in SX although slightly better in that you can at least add the thing without the programme retching audibly, it simply cuts out all the time or distorts randomly, saometimes you'll add an effect and it works, then it just stops, or it never initialises in the first place, or it doesnt initialise then suddenly comes on randomly mebbe 3,5, or whatever seconds later, but only to continualy randomly drop in out all the time
it's hopeless as far as i can see. - The sound also distorts after a while playing games, gradualy the sound breaks up until it sounds like a distortion effect is added.
worst of all tech support (cough) is an INTERNATIONAL call number!!!! (but the tech support guy just denied they'd ever had a complaint about it, and didnt see why they needed to test it with SX or Logic when i reffered to the fact the manual dealt soley with a cubase version that is at least 2 years out of date & to all intents and purposes discontinued
thing is, i'm loath to try it in another machine cos if it scrws that one up after un-installing i have work to do, so far on the est machine it's failing miserably for everything EXCEPT acting as a straigh quality i/o card/rack... in that sense it works well with SX & LOGIC as a straight in/out device. The distortion only seems to happen with games.

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!
