Hardware samplers...

[ehasting]

I would have voted for the emu e6400 classic/ultra any day when it comes to filtering. It has a diffrent flavor then the akai, and the akai is probably a very good instrument for playback of original source. I find the emu coloring the sound a bit more.. and the filters does more with the sound. But that is what i love with the emu. The emu acts more like a synth with its extensive routing matrix. but it also miss out easy features like ping-pong loop (it can be achived with copy and past, so no big loss). and there is no sample choping features to map up drum samples quickly (like recycle).. i realy hate that

But the emu is a sampler synth which realy can alter the sound into another world!
