Don't hold your breath, Roland is holding those very close - pushing the Roland Cloud with the D50 and others, I'm sure JD800 is coming too.

Getting at the samples is indeed easy enough. The EMU hardware has a warmth all of its own though, so I would want to capture that as well. I will get to it eventually

Great, I like to see I'm not the only one thinking that Emu hardware still worth to have....

I don’t know anything about the Emu samplers, and there are a couple of different used models offered in the bay. Which Emu model would you recommend to get the full taste of the free samples?

It depends on how much you want to pay. I would certainly suggest getting one the later models, least an ESI-2000 / 4000 or newer.
The real problem can be reading the CD / ZIP / Jazz disks the samples are on. For me, that is just the 'entertainment' of using old equipment though.

And then after going to all that effort, you need to re-sample them through good pre-amps - not just a cheap USB sound card.

Not sure if you're interested in digital piano sounds, but these might be worth a look if you don't have them yet.

would be nice to see Nord sample the EMU Emulator II / III, Elka synthex, etc. there's some really nice older synths out there to give some nord love to. lol

Hi,

you can take a look at this sound library

Ha! I found that library a few weeks ago. There is so much to choose from in there.

Then I saw the Korg M1 library, and I wondered if my M1, which has been gathering dust for 10 years, still works. And it does
