ESI Operation Manual
ESI
ESI is the very latest in the long line of high quality and affordable E-mu
sampling products. ESI features 22.05 kHz and 44.1 kHz sampling rates
and 16-bit resolution for CD quality sound. Sampling can be performed
in either mono or true stereo. 64 channels of polyphony allow you to
stack sounds or create lush sequences without fear of channel “ripoff”.
The user-upgradable memory can be expanded to a maximum of 128
Mbytes using standard SIMM modules (Details and installation are
available at your E-mu dealer).
The ESI has full access to the huge library of sounds available from E-mu
and other sources. It is fully compatible with the legendary EIII and
EIIIX libraries, and can import Emax II and Akai S1000/S1100 banks. In
many cases, the ESI can import and convert programs faster than the
source unit!
The advanced features of the ESI make sampling easy. Samples can be
automatically truncated, normalized and placed on the keyboard as the
sample is taken. ESI also contains advanced tools such as Auto Correla-
tion, Loop Compression and Crossfade Looping which allow even the
most difficult sounds to be easily looped.
Samples can be digitally spliced and mixed with other samples, and
dynamically controlled from the keyboard using velocity and positional
crossfading and switching functions. Advanced digital processing
features such as Sample Rate Conversion, Compressor, Digital Paramet-
ric Equalizer and Digital Tuning allow you to shape raw samples more
quickly and with greater precision than computer based systems.
Additional digital processing functions include: Time Compression and
Expansion, which shorten or lengthen the time of samples without
changing the pitch; and Doppler/Pan, which allows you to move
samples forward and backwards in space as well as from side to side.
The Sonic Enhancer adds brilliance and cut to a sample, helping it to
stand out in a mix.
