Re: [microsound] emu e64 vs e6400

[Nick S <hasnoplur@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

basically wanna make drum and bass and techno with it...but i also dabble in
classical composition....on the drum and bass front it'll do everything
beats and bass..on the techno front...me and my buddy play live...we wanna
sample some of the more finicky equipment that doesnt like to travel into
this...so we can leave them behind in the studio...we also wanna put some
vocal bits in there too

ill be using cubase to sequence...recycle and soundforge to chop and
transmit samples...i have an adaptec scsi card in my workstation
already...so im not too worried about usb connectivity...i have a yamaha
su200 already(it sucks for anything other than dirty drums)...but i did look
at the a400 as an option(as well as the roland s760 and akai s5k)

id like to thank the microsound ppl who responded to me on the list and in
private...your insite was very helpful...i did buy the sampler...it came
with 3 scsi cd roms, 2 scsi zip drives, 5 emu sample discs, and connecting
cables for 300usd...i figure if i dont like it, i can always trade it for an
akai, roland, or yamaha...or trade and throw in some cheddar for one of
those kurzweil samplers.

hope i didnt go on any kind of OT rant

best regards
nick
