IM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!

I went to a fleemarket today just to look for records...

GUESS WHAT I FOUND!
Some guy had an original in perfect-shape 1988 EMAX standing there

(for the people, that is the rack version of the 1200) It's maxed and with alot of original floppies!

I asked him how much he wants for 'the box' and he said he doesn't really know what it is or does, SO HE SAID 60 BUCKS!

I GRABBED THE BABY AND GAVE HIM THE MONEY. I HAD A HARD TIME NOT TO SCREAM WHEN I LEFT HIS STAND.

I'm so happy right now!
I'll start posting EMAX beats next week or so, stay tuned!

Sure, I can compare the mpc2500, sp404 and EMAX.

Roland should re-issue the sp-1200 in a smaller, battery powered box.

they were actually made by E-mu, not Roland

i think it's a coincidence both lines have SP prefixes

confusing though

Ya...Emu is owned by a software company now so its unlikely they will ever do something like that again

actually they are owned by Creative Labs who makes consumer level sound card (those Audigy lines).

that and the fact that technology has been changing a lot over the years, those converters used for the SP1200s are most likely not available anymore.

Yeah, I'm dumb I used to sell E-MU soundcards all day in Seattle. Since Roland rocks the sp namesake they should make an homage to the beat beast, I'm sure they could recreate similar converters and program style.

OH BOY OH BOY!
