Founded in 1972
Based out of Scotts Valley, California U.S.A
merged with Ensoniq in 1998 to become E-mu/Ensoniq
Made in 1986
The Emax HD is fully compatible with the Emax
Sound Library, the largest,
most powerful library available among comparably priced samplers.
With the
standard 3.5" micro floppy drive, you can load the hard disk
with your own
samples, sounds from E-mu's library, or any of the many sounds
available
from third party developers.
Whether you choose the Emax HD keyboard or its
twin, the Emax HD
Rack,TM you get all the powerful features of the standard Emax:
19 seconds
sampling time (at 28kHz), variable sampling rates, 12 bit resolution,
on-board
sequencer, crossfade looping, programmable stereo panning, flexible
assignment scheme (up to 122 samples on the keyboard at one time),
individual channel outputs and stereo outputs, extensive MIDI
implementation
and much more.
The Emax SE PLUS ($2995) has the same features
of the Emax with SE
(Synthesis Enhanced), but in addition, includes a SCSI port for
connecting the
Emax to external SCSI 20 megabyte hard disk storage devices. This
SCSI
interface will also be available for existing Emax owners at a
cost of $195.
Emu will be offering the Data Technologies Hyperflex SCSI drive
($1395) that
features a 20 megabyte removable format disk, allowing virtually
unlimited
storage of samples. For larger capacity needs (such as the Emulator
III), the
RM45 ($1995) is a rack mount removable media SCSI storage system
with 45
megabyte removable cartridges. Features of the RM45 include 1:1
interleave,
8K buffer memory, autopark and locking of the heads, and a G force
rating
(non- operating) of 40 GUs.
