I was just wondering if any one has ever gotten anything good from this time consuming processing?

What is it supposes to do ? the manuel is not very direct about what it is supposed to sound like. I wish i could talk to the guy that thought of some of these cords and functions.

well, from what i have read, it is suppose to take the common parts of the two different sources, and keep those and get rid of all the frequencies that are not in common. so basically if you play two different samples, like a pad and drums, and they are different lenghts, you get some, what seems to be, random wave length, and you can kind of hear the drums in the pad, usually followed by a loud snap at the end. realy it doesn't seem two work well at all. and if you try doing it with anything over 5 seconds, you might as well leave it on and go to work, by the time you get home it should be done. okay, i am exageratng there, but it take forever for it to process.

in my manual, it says it is possible to make a guitar "talk". but with the way it acts, i doubt you are going to get anything quite like peter frampton.

it would be cool if it worked better and faster. but it doesn't so i really haven't used it at all. and i think alot of people don't use it either.

It sounds like what the 'convolve' function does in Peak (Mac). It is faster on the Mac so maybe it's best done on your computer rather than onboard the EMU??

Ive tried it with a bass sound and a vocal and it sounds like crap. I think it sounds best with higher freq sounds. Andre says its dope and not to use it with bass you know the e he got, must take a million years. lol.
