Digital Sound Factory E-MU Emax Collector Edition [KONTAKT]

FULL INFO BELOW:

The Emax was essentially a complete replication of the Emulator II using custom E-mu chips instead of standard off the shelf silicon chips.
This new engineering increased reliability, and reduced the cost of manufacture.

The sample resolution was the same 12-bits companded into 8-bits of memory, the samples were still monophonic, but the maximum sample rate was increased to 42kHz.

Depeche Mode switched to using Emaxs from Emulator IIs on tour, and the Emax SE HDs can be seen and heard in use on t he 1988 USA t our video 101. The Emax Kontakt collection represents the extensive library of samples and instruments that were originally available on 3.5 disks.
