Well, Z-Plane are Morph Filters, so unless you want that bassline to talk, I would normally use a LPF for the bass stuff ;)

I almost blew my ears off within seconds :shock: Then used the cords for the first time with the bass from Alien Girl, and out came the bass from Killer Bees :shock: (..then saved the preset, turned off E-MU, went back to it next day and none of it was saved, hmm! lots still to learn :|)

Hi. I'm new to the "Ultra" series (got a second hand E6400 Ultra last week) and was also concerned about that mysterious Z-Plane stuff? The documentation being very poor on practical examples and explanations (they just barely explain the Z-plane concept), does anybody here know if there are any factory sounds on the Ultra samplers that would demonstrate the Z-Plane filters? My E6400 Ultra came with 20 Gb internal hd with banks "VOL 1" to "VOL 13" (VOL 9 to 12 missing, though?) and "Mega Drums", "Mega Synth", "Vocals" and "Ultra Set".

Thanks in advance?
