Its funny LIke when you start to put out at least 50 albums

Most of them are gonna be other peoples beats not the Living legends themselves.......


For creative differences.,...

I mean I think most of the beats where done by random producers thats usually how they like there albums....Cause we had MUM, Madlib,Doskylesky,Blockhead,Dj swift,There in house Dj......
The list goes on....
How they work is that they tour alot so they meet alot of producers and they just ask you wanna get a beat cd to us and maybe well put one of your tracks on our album...

So they get alot of good tracks from all over producers from japan etc..
Its more of just whats banging to them personally
THen they all have to agree and thats where alot of tracks get scrapped...
And thats why they have alot of single albums by themselves...

Yeah murs is the shit....
He definitly rocks a show
HIs murs 3:16 was dope but I was expecting old Murs and the Fox hole...

i just called emu today to see what roms where left....only thing they have is zr76, advanced orchestra, composer rom, beat garden, and extreme lead. They are phasing out of the roms and not manufacturing them.

otherwise you gotta get em used. Im gonna buy the zr76 and orchestra tomorrow. I wanted the Vintage collection but they are out.

yeah, i just ordered the zr76 rom....i wanted to get the orchestra, but im broke.

Ive got teh protean drum rom....man, i love the drums......better than mophatt, but it doesnt have the basses like the mophatt. i really wanted the vintage rom, for that analog sound, i can layer and filter to my hearts content.

lately ive been using the sine wav, and layering and filtering it with other tones, making my own basses......super nice fat sound!

one thing emu did was not program these machines good! there is so much to work with, you just gotta dig in. 8)

Hey what's up cyrus?
I bought some emu rom( composer, mp7, orchestra, beat garden, and z76), I also bought 8 sample disk which I bought for $5 apiece. The sample cd's has the same exact sounds as some of the rom and plus it works good on the mpc 4000( you still have to tweek it alittle to get it like you want, but same sounds). I would suggest getting the sampled cd's from emu. BTW the cd's that I have are analog odyssey,hip hop nation, techno trance, emu classics,earth tones, world percussion\ensembles, world strings, and sound fx. Hope this helps.
peace.
