GUIDED TOUR #9:
MAKE YOUR OWN
These Guided Tours cover only the basics; to cover every possibility of how to use the
instrument would drown you in words. It’s better that you just start playing! The best
way to learn Emax II is to dive right in. Remember, you can experiment as much as you
want on stuff in the bank; you have to actually save the bank to disk in order to alter the
contents of the disk, and in case you’re nervous, you can even write-protect the disk.
Try to spend some time not playing with, but rather practicing with, the instrument.
After you’re a little more familiar with Emax II, read through the Reference Section and
delve deeply into a particular function or module. Emax II is like an audio construction
set, where sounds can be captured, held, processed, mutated, spliced, sped up, slowed
down...and lots more, so take advantage of what it is has to offer.
The more you practice with the Emax II, the more you’ll be able to put your personal
stamp on the music you play. And when you do play, you’ll know the instrument
well enough so that you are free to concentrate on the music.
