RE: punchy kick drums
uhhh.....the e4 is like the emax4, and e3 format is the native format for the emax3 so theres no way the emax1 will read emax3 samples I`m afraid
8 megs? Half a meg more like. No scsi - its has this rs23..something or other but you willnae find anything to hook it upto nowadays.......mebbe an old mac with that old digidesign SW so unless you pick up an emaxHD, its floppy or nowt.I would say sound for sound, the emax sounds way better than the e4 due to that certain 12bit something you cant put yer finger on and those analogue filters (lopass only). For some reason, 12 bit samplers seem to have a higher fidelity sound if you sample with the highest sample rate, dunno why.......prolly just perceived more than anything cos they bite a bit harder than 16bit.....but course you can do more with modern samplers soundmangling wise. They *really* should make a modern 12 bit sampler but with all the facilites we`re used to nowadays, it`d be quite a piece if they goddit right.
