emusonacid!

Hey Everyone,

I have an emulator X sitting in a box which I dont use cuz I have 2 maxed ultras (though one doesnt have the ADAT upgrade) and I am currently bidding on an E4 classic. I run all hardware and no software except for Zoeos which I stopped using due to a lack of 64 bit support and support in general . I also have an ASR-X, Novation KSR and Yamaha AW16G.

I could probably get rid of all this hardware and just use the Emulator X and something like Pro Tools.

Am I just living in the past? Should I sell it all and just use the X?

are you crazy man?

that should be an easy question.

Well.. dont care to sell that old junk.. just ship it to me.. i will be kind with you and pay the postage.

then you can use your Emulator X in peace, without having all that junk around in your studio!

I wrestle with this issue every day.

I have kept a few hw samplers, but I don't really use them anymore

Do it the way it works for you, that is the golden rule.

Use a combo of both

You know I really like them alot. Having considered everyones input I am going to take everyone's advice (except for ehasting - sorry ehasting) and keep everything, continue to use the ULTRAS till they absolutely give out. Then I have the X as the upgrade path with only minor things to learn.

I have to agree and I own the E4XT Ultra, an E6400 Ultra and the Emulator X2, although you have to realise they do not sound identical. Take a listen and make up your own mind!

One can sound better on bass and the other can sounds better on leads, but I guess thats all subjective depending on the sounds you're looking for, I won't say which is which.

I wouldn't sell either tho mate tbh.
