The top is sequencing it through the mpc,that is what i normally do.

E-mu says: We scraped the bottom of our reserves of parts to re-release it a few years ago. Also, they just don't make those chips anymore, it's hard to get those parts.
In the early '90s, Marco Albert proposed an "SP1600" using first the sampling engine from the EmaxII, and then one from the ESI32 sampler. Product concepts were drawn up, but they were never approved.
The new attitude that pervaded Emu was to build low-cost modules and achieve massive revenues. Marco took the idea (and his job) to Akai, launched the hugely successful MPC2000 instead.
MPC2000 is dat SP1600?
