callengowanco.com Posted October 2, 2001 Share Posted October 2, 2001 I have been all loyal supporter of emu samplers for years, I initially started with a roland S50 (probably my favorite), I then moved on to the EmaxII, the E3, and know I own the Keyboard version of the Esynth and a Kurz 2600. It seems as if Emu and others are loosing the sales battles against sofware based samplers. I personally believe a lot of it has to do with there refusal to make the jump to the 24bit sampling standard. It saddened me when I realized that both Kurz and Emu are developing new products around 16bit sample libraries that are over 10 years old!!!!!! They need to wake up and smell the coffee just give me 24bits, 8 balanced outs, digital I/O, and onboard sequencer as good as an MPC, 256 or 512 meg of memory, 60 gig harddrive, "laughing" and the ability to connect a standard computer monitor to the unit (like the S50). And I would gladly lay my 5 to 10 grand on the wood!!!! Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
