No Cheetah SX16? No Akai S612? No Yamaha TX-16W?
Not sure about Cheetah. True for the Akai. The TX has digital filters, I
still
have one in my studio. It loads filter coefficient tables from disk
and there was a DOS software to create you own, I tried it once or twice. It
was one of the inspirations for Minicomputer...
Thanks for suggesting I try out this synthpler .... a very unique
sound-producer among the many available on linux.
Do you have any suggestions for "patches" to give people a better idea of
what this beast is capable of? It is actually part of Fedora
minicomputer.x86_64 1.41-1.fc12
@updates
(congrats for getting your package directly in the main distro!)
Unfortunately, it comes with minimal presets, but I was eventually able to
make it produce some interesting sounds...

hopefully I get my Emulator II working again. When it
worked, the hybrid
sound was amazing. Another hybrid sampler/synths, just for the fun of it:
(Samplers are underrated at the moment and cheap to get second hand)
This seems like a good time to re-ask a question here amongst the ancient
equipment freaks :-)
Is there a way to get Emu EIII sample-CD's (as well as the EIII sample
format on hard disk) converted into SFZ or GIG format for use by
LinuxSampler???
