Trying to get Emulator 2 samples into my Microsampler

Post by LoboLives » Sat Dec 10, 2016 4:21 pm

I just acquired a Korg Micosampler and I'm interested in putting the original Emulator 2 samples into it. I have the Korg Wave Editor where I can take Wav files and sample them into the keyboard. The Micosampler can loop phrases and also map samples across the keyboard so you can play it on the key bed. How would I go about getting the Emulator 2 sounds? All the "Samples" I find on Ebay apparently can't be mapped according to the sellers. Can anyone help me with this?

You get as many EII disc images as you can find, and use EMXP to convert them. I converted them to SoundFont because Kontakt can load those directly, so the original mapping and (some of the) modulation is preserved. The Waldorf Blofeld also supports SoundFonts. Korg should have included support for this popular format (invented by Emu Systems!)

You'll have to use WAV which will preserve the loop points but not the mapping.

Mapping doesn't matter, microSampler does not multisample.
I listened to Hatfield and the North at Rainbow. They were very wonderful and they made my heart a prisoner.

Ah right. In that case it's the wrong tool for the job, unless you just want the Shakuhachi?
