Tutorials | Emulator II V - Overview 

i guess Im asking randomly but does any of you know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot my account password. I love any tips you can offer me!

@Briggs Asher instablaster =)

@Brayden Luciano I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Brayden Luciano It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you really help me out!

@Briggs Asher Happy to help xD

Thanks Frank!

You could always just record an audio stem of a sample from one synth and load it into the other I suppose, But I bet when Arturia update this synth later on that will happen.

agreed! hope it has all the classics + more :) and would be awesome to see them expand the E-mu series!

they said in the livestream today that you can import samples from .eii files, but they have not reverse engineered all the stored parameters yet.

Would be awesome if you could import files from EMXP in all formats but that’s dreaming a bit. Got tons of Emax libraries I’d love to hear with this.

Just purchased mine. Current users of version 7 get 60% discount

@@alejandroestrella69 nice! I asked support at Splice yesterday and they did confirm it would happen, but couldn’t say when

@@alejandroestrella69 you got from Splice? Or directly from Arturia?

@@CRASS2047 Always directly from Arturia.

Emulator will sound fuller, less phasey. It was a better machine, having had the benefit of years of additional development in the computer world that was going on in the early 80s.

The Emulator II and the Fairlight have very different sounds, and were used for very different purposes in the 80's, so I'm not sure how much a comparison would be useful because they are very different machines.

@@bobjoe7508 Oh, WHATEVER! PFFFFT! Give me a break. That is such a non-answer. Many artists that wanted the CMI, but couldn't afford it, jumped on EII's.

There are sync buttons to click on

Well that is disheartening to hear. I was listening for some of the stuff that I'm sure you are mentioning in the demos, and I wrote it off thinking "they can't play EVERY sound in the demo"...but maybe that's not the case. There are some Kontakt libraries out there of EII stuff. I wonder if it's possible / efficient / a good idea to bring them into this?

@@hillaryknox I honestly don't know. My problem is that if Aturia had been honest about the sound catalog available for their E11 I simply would not have paid the 199 euros & upgraded from V7. I feel cheated for the first time from this company.

Its not even close. I own the real E-II.

Great question. That would indicate if this really is an Emulator II emulator or not.

Yes, you can import .eii files after clicking on browse button.

It's assigned to modulate the filter frequency.

Wait till you hit 60 .. the differences drastically decrease 🙄

Nah. I doubt you’d even be able to tell in a blind test and you know it.

@@jerryb.7021he’s right we also compared it …

That's cool and all but all of us don't own the real thing so here we are...

Right, well you probably noticed that Arturia makes software re-creations of things with actual analog filters, so...here's another one.

indeed it sounds too clean, compared to the old hardware. Doesn't sound bad, but as said, too clean. I keep on using the sample based UVI instrument, which sounds more authentic

This plug in is of course 100% Digital. Nothing analog here at all.

Pretty silly comments as for 1. Its an "emulation" of an Emulator .. pun intended 2. It's the same for all kind of softsynths no matter how they are coded, you will never get the same sound as the original no matter if it's a digital or analog synth you are trying to emulate and how much time you spent on analyzing the original circuits. No producer of softsynth claims them to be exact copies of the originals. It is merely recreations of classic synths with often extra things added for greater creativity and the posibility to store presets on some of the real old analog stuff that didn't have programability at all. Even an actual hardware recreation with real analog discrete components that often cost as much as you'd have to pay for a working 40 year old original do sound considerably closer, they still don't get all the way to just 99% of the original sound. For what you pay for the complete Bundle from Arturia, you'd still have to sell a couple organs or your granny to get the money for an Emulator II in working condition

wow we got a genius over here... no shit Sherlock
