I just dl'ed the EOS link and it's really helpfull for simple changes. But there's a resident "buzz". Does anybody know how to get rid of it? Maybe it's just my shite pc?

hi
I don't know anythign about any buzz but that program is pretty dodge to say the least. They released the first version that came out haven't done updates since. It is really slow and half the time it locks up on no matter what machine you're using it on.

If you want full pc control over your emu just get sounddiver.

Hey wrecker13,

I use EOS Link and I notice more of a clicking than a buzz. If you are hearing clicking or buzzing I beleive that it is due to EOS Link continually polling the sampler for visual updates. Whenever I transfer samples from my PC to my E-mu I do hear a buzzing that goes away once the sample has been transfered, that could be it as well. I am not sure if this is the answer but it is the most logical thing I could think of. If you use EOS Link with other applications such as a software sequencer, there is an option in EOS Link that basically allows you to shut down any processing EOS Link does when in the background. That way you don't hear those annoying sounds when working on a song with your favorite sequencer. Hope this helps.

Yes I noticed the buzz as well. Also noticed it prevents me from doing SCSI transfers & must close the app in order to do this. To be honest I don't find myself using it much anyway except for entering text & renaming samples & presets. I feel the interface works quite efficiently as is. I prefer the push of a button over a mouse, 1 of the joys of using hardware innit?

I get SCSI noise regardless of whether link is on or off when doing an SMDI Transfer...Doesn't affect .wav (sample) quality though.

This noise is electrical an quite typical. This noise is inherent to the protocol since it lacks sufficient electrical isolation...SCSI was designed over 20 years ago now btw.
