EMAX 1

DFACE DXA · EMAX 1

emax is one of the most slept on samplers. sounds fuckin ill and has configurable analog filters. whos got one?

IceRocksDxa

Don't got one of my own but I was feelin it when I was using your Emax. Def a dope peice I would want one if I had some extra cash and not as long a list of stuff to get.

8 track

yeah the emax's are real nice & the sound is so present, right in your face, but not like an sp... i'm still in search for one...

DFACE DXA

sp is filthier. i think they make a good combo when connected via midi. emax is more versatile. good luck on your hunt

beyondbeatlust

the emax might be next for me...analog filters? really? i was allready talking about getting one...

DFACE DXA

yeah the emax has some real cool filters. look through the manual before you buy it. see what its capable of.

I got my hands on Dface's EMAX and I'm ganna have fun with that bitch. SP & EMAX make a dope team.

DOes the emax sound even near or close to the sp 1200?
I mean im buying one from this cat for a dirt cheap price so i just want to know if its a good buy
thanks

soudns cleaner than the sp. sp is the king for drums. emax is the king for samples. go bring a record to the cats house and sample it in before you cop it.

just got an Emax HD SE rack off of ebay, probably bidding against someone on this board lol, I paid more than I wanted to for it, that's for sure, but I can't wait to get it...

thought it might hold over my sp1200 lust...a little bit

DFACE DXA

i had that emax in my watch. that went for more than twice what i paid for mine. that shit looked all beat the uff up too. lemme kno how it is in person.

Deta!L

no doubt, I'm pretty sure it'll clean up alright though

I've been looking for the HD SE for a minute so I said fuckit and overbid

I'll post some pics when it gets here[/i]

got the emax today, haven't had a chance to mess with it but it looks fine, turns on and everything. I'll do some searches for manuals and tips etc. but was wondering how you would find a way to use a scsi zip on it? mine has a computer out of some sort but doesn't say anything about scsi?

DFACE DXA

it depends on your specific emax. check out emulator archive

the sp1200 and the emax have different filter chips so thats why they sound different. emulatorarchive has the names of all the filter chips which give emu 's their sounds

For those of you that have used both the EMAX and the Akai s950....
What would you say had better filters? What bit rate are they running, and most user friendly? Im on the market for a rack sampler, so I thought I'd ask. The akai/sp have been a long term relationship, and does the job...so does the EMax have bigger tits?

DFACE DXA

emax has way better filters
both samplers are ill

sampling_percussion

can the emax read sp1200 disks, can any other sampler?

nuts

I 'm in!

I catch one after selling my SP12 Turbo, it stays unused since i bought it, but now i try to learn everything on it.
Actually i prefer its sound over SP because it can sound cleaner, and dirtier also.
From 42khz to 10 khz...A world of great aliasing, or not. The filter is beautiful too, i think!

i should get to using mine for some beats, havent really messed with it much though i did replace the backlight on it recently. emax is def a heavy sound, havent really checked the filters out but the chorus effect was kind of crazy. i got a 950 too but i think emax is a little more flexible in sound though 950 is nice for chopping. on the other hand i really dont like having to use rack samplers too much anymore....it gets kind of annoying having to use another set of disks and stare at more little screens. on the other hand, if all you had to make beats on was a mpc2kxl, emax 1 would have you doing some damage.
