But l would like to know from you, akay fans a defense of your samplers, also a curiosity, S 5000/6000 are announced to have many kind of filters, fine, but how many simultaneous ones can you have in a sample/program?.

As far as Yamaha, they are still learning from AKAI and EMU.
AS far as bugs in AKAI S5000, I haven't found a new bug yet with the latest OS 1.30.

I've got an emu ultra and thinking of getting the new Yam when it comes out.
Personally, i think Emu/ Akai are fine for all types of music especially Orchestra, film etc... But the Yams are great for cutting edge music.
When i sample, i want to manipulate, not just to playback and filter. That's what makes the yams so appealing to me.

I haven't ever tried Akai samplers but I think that the new Emu E5000 Ultra looks quite appealling

I wouldn't mind hearing the emu's sound, I never liked the akai sonically but I found the a3k really easy to work with when mixing.
so what sort of stuff can you do with the emu synthesis wise?

As for the synth engine in EMU, well you can use anything to control anything. You get all different Modules like DC, Sum Amp, Quantizer don't even know what half of them do. Best thing to do is to go to EMU's home page and d'load the manual

How does it sound? Very musical 2 my ears, I still say Akais have the edge as far as beats r concerned but, 4 all round ability, the e-mu wins handsdown. I definately think e-mu have managed 2 grasp the fact that the sampler is a musical instrument much more than Akai have.
