This is the right place if your topic concerns different Nord Keyboards, you are not sure which one is the right one for you, etc.

No new samples?

Postby De fursaK NE5 » 25 Oct 2018, 20:24

Hi everybody,

I still happen to have the full set of EMU III cd's, a few ilio cd's, and an ESI 2000. If only I had working & compatible SCSII CD-ROM drive, or a Jazz drive that didn't put extra grooves in things....

The original Emulator source samples are around on the internet. Simple enough to turn them into Nord samples yourself…

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....

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.

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.
