Your Favorite Sample Libraries for Akai/Emu

Hello Everyone,

If you were to make a list of your all-time favorite sample libraries, which ones would you put on it? I am not very familiar with stuff outside of the CDs that came bundled with E-mu samplers and am looking to expand my sonic palette a bit. I am interested in instrumentation for all genres. Let's get this started and thanks in advance for your input! :slayer:

You should definitely add Wizoo's Magnetica on your list.
It is a superb collection of Rhodes, Wurli, Clavinet and B3 for the EMU.
If you're into these sort of sounds, then it's a must have! (IMHO)

I just love the EIIIx CD-ROM collection, particularly the "E-mu Classics" CD. Old fashioned, I know :-)

I've been having great fun with the "Platinum Phatt" CDs (2 discs). It was part of the Emulator Library released after the e4's... volume 8, I think it was.

(although, if I'm to be completely honest, I don't really know because I don't have the original -- and very hard to find -- CDs... bought that compilation DVD of CD images from the guy on eBay)

Second on the list would have to be the Analog Odyssey disc from the ESI 4000 series...

how would i upload sounds into this forum?i could probably only upload a single preset as we have many instrument banks(pianos,basses,brass,synth,guitar,etc.)and sample loops of drums,vocals & guitar which are quite large ; eg. one of the piano banks is 64mb.even our analogue collection is about 3mb.any ideas on what format this would take to accomplish ? :???: good idea though.

Post a track made with a wide variety of sounds exclusively from your library, which will illustrate the quality of the sound design. Just upload it somewhere that you can post a link to here, there's no way to upload a sound directly into the forum. :grin:

I've been searching for good Fender Rhodes for years? until I came across that "Wizoo Magnetica" CD-Rom for my E6400U? and it's definitely tha bomb! Less variety but much more quality than most of the sampling cd's out there! :thumbs:
