Here is my gear list
MPC60 V3.10 1.5m
S950 2.25m

ENSONIQ EPS16+ SCSI ZIP 4MB
EMAX 1 HD Rack

I am think to sell the S950 cuz MPC60 have the same smple Engine.
or I need to sell other

What you guys think, any advice??
Thanks

Keep the 60 definitly. Damn, you have an EMAX HD rack, you know you can update that to an HD SE with a fle from the net? Also, you can add an external SCSI port.

Check out the emulator archives.

You have a good emax and a good EPS with the options you have it will be harder to replace those. Sell the 950 I'd say.

Thanks Elma

I know I can upgrade the Emax one but, I can't really understand the upgrade method on emulator archives, my English not that well.Maybe you can help me with that? Is the Emax SCSI upgrade can Use Zip 100 Drive?

Do you think S950 TIMESTRECH and Filter better then other? Cuz MPC60 have no Timestrech and Filter.

Thanks for Advice

elm have you ever messed with a emax se keyboard? i see you are a fan of the emax rack.

By elmacaco Sun May 29, 2005 3:18 pm
well. If you like the 950 better than the EPS then sell the EPS.

Yeah I can help you with the emax, do you know if you have an old enough dos version to run EMX?

I got a Bott Floply disk for Emax.

If that's your entire gear list, and you sell the MPC60, what will you use to control everything?

The 16+ (IF(!) you have a keyboard version) could do it, but you would probably slow down your workflow considerably.

Otherwise, I would sell the S950 (IF(!) you have to choose between the MPC60 or S950). Frankly, you'll get more for the MPC60: the $250USD or so you'll get for the 950 isn't a huge lot of cash.

If I were you, I would sell nothing.

yeah for real, but having 3 rack samplers and an MPC is overkill, even if they are old.

If I was really hurting I would sell everything but the MPC.

I think he meant Butt.

I can sell this price because it's like mint condition and full 2.25Ram,replace new back light and I know in my country not more than 3 of S950 like this condition and almost no upgrade and most S950 in Taiwan already die.It's very hard to find here.

Is S900 have the same filter,timestrech like S950?

By elmacaco Mon May 30, 2005 6:08 pm
no timestretch, in that case, maybe sell some furniture and don't let go of a sampler that will be hard to replace.
