Anything written after 1978, be it a poem, a novel, a song, a concerto, etc., is copyrighted as soon as it is preserved in a fixed form. If you write it, and you write it down, you hold all rights (until you sell them). Registering with the Library of Congress only makes it easier to prove that you were the first person to come up with that particular idea. Older works are subject to slightly different rules, as Quimby pointed out. And there have also been cases where the "poor man's copyright" - sending your work to yourself through sealed, registered mail with the postmark on the seal - has held up in court. - Russ ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

If you're using samples that go for a while and you have drums and stuff going around them you could be chewing up your polyphony, which usually sits at either 16 or 32 notes. So if you're holding down a sample and 32 notes pass the sound may cut to make way for the next note (or any midi data for that matter) The best way around this is to break up the long sample (if possible) and record it in in smaller steps. eg: If you've sampled a verse of vox you may need to break up the verse into phrases and record the phrases onto the sequencer= seperately. hope this helps ...Stev... ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

Hi Zowie, on the original EPS you set the range using the "set keyboard range button" located at the upper righthand side of the display.Don't know though if this works the same way on the EPS16. > (2) The sample itself is the wave?

Yup, the sample itself is the wave and I guess you could call the keyboard sort of a frequency modulator. > (3) Polyphony- can I turn it off and on?

It's called voice-staeling, I'm afraid. [...] >(Is there a difference between voices and waves?) Yes, there is. In Ensoniq-lingo, a Wavesample is the physical data af an audio-sample or a virtual copy of it. Wavesamples are stringed together in Layers (other manufactureres call it Multisample). As soon as a Layer has at least one Wavesample assigned in a specified key-range, it uses one voice in this range. (Note that inside the _same_ layer, two Wavesamples cannot share the same range.) Each Instrument (=3D sound, consisting of Wavesamples, Layers and their programmed parameters, packed together in one file) can have up to eight Layers. They can be grouped to four different patches (therefor the Patch Selcect-buttons). The clue to your problem, Rasmus: Even if you play a single note, an Instrument with 4 Layers active in a Patch will use _4_ voices, not one. A 4-note chord needs 16 voices .... :-o ... now add a little bass on another sequencer-Track (... two layers for some chorusing:-), some drums (kick, snare, hihat) .... oooops! One too many! You can easily check (and change) the Patch-configuration in the EDIT*INSTRUMENT-menu. >I could probably check this one out in the manual? ;-) You _should_ probably check this one out in the manual! >(If I=B4ve had had one...)

You might be surprised to find that some of the instruments you use consume more that one voice to play one note . In a given instrument for each layer that has a sample in it that you have active you will use a voice . It is not uncommon to have instruments with two layers active . If it were a piano part it would be very easy to see how you could use 10 - 14 voices . 20 voices is not a lot and gets used quickly in orthordox drums, bass , keyboards type arrangements . Believe me TIP To get more voices in busy settings try this . A common programming trick i have seen ... particularly in older EPS libraries is when for EG , you have a synth sample ,they will copy the layer and then pan each layer hard left and right then detune each side slightly for a pseudo stereo chorus effect . Nice enough sound but the problem is that you use double the number of voices to play a given part . So what you do is turn one layer off and if nescesary reposition the active layer in pan wise . You will loose the chorus effect , but in a pinch where you absolutely need to hear EVERYTHING (most of the time) it's not a bad workaround . Since the 16+ and there being FX built in they dont do this so much . - -- ===/===/===/===/===/===/===/===/ Paul Najar JAMINAJAR Production . Composition . Arrangement .

As soon as I did this, EPSUtility started weirding up in large and nebulous ways - for example, I get "Unknown Error -10!!" whenever I now try to write a .gkh file to disk, regardless of the disk type. Any assistance in correcting this pain-in-the-ass problem that has made 50 megs of my sound collection about as valuable as a stale meatloaf would be appreciated, including recommendations of alternate shareware programs that might perform the same task as EPSUtility, ie. writing .gkh files to EPS disks (?)

The real thing, I mean, not in Windows MS-DOS box. There are some programs that will not run properly when executed from within Windows. It is really hard to believe that a DOS program that has been running without problems in some hardware environment would not run after a piece of software has been copied to the hard disk. I must admit, that I haven't got Win95 on any of my machines, but it must be possible to boot the computer in plain vanilla DOS mode even after installing Win95? If you, on the other hand have added/replaced some HW devices at the same time when you installed Win95, there may be a real problem. But if your system has remained unchanged and the programs still don't run (in DOS mode), the next place to check would be the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files for changes you made in conjunction with installing Win95. Hope this helps, Timo ---- ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

I have been feverishly reading the back issues starting from the 1991-1992 era and have already found valuable insight! For example, I've seen the issues regarding the heat sink problems and have used simple angle brackets to mount two 2.5" 12volt computer fans flush against the heat sink. The holes for the screws (which appear to be part of a hinge on the EPS) provide excellent space for mounting the brackets. While in the month I've owned the EPS I've never had a "heat-related" problem, I can now easily touch the heat sink after running it for 14 hours and it's still cold. It was pretty toasty prior to installing the fans.

In fact, here is a spoof of the whole thing: There is a computer virus that is being sent across the Internet. If you receive an e-mail message with the subject line "Free Money," DO NOT read the message. DELETE it immediately, UNPLUG your computer, then BURN IT to ASHES in a government-approved toxic waste disposal INCINERATOR. Once a computer is infected, it will be TOO LATE. Your computer will begin to emit a vile ODOR. Then it will secrete a foul, milky DISCHARGE. Verily, it shall SCREECH with the tortured, monitor-shattering SCREAM of 1,000 hell-scorched souls, drawing unwanted attention to your cubicle from co-workers and supervisors alike. After violently ripping itself from the wall, your computer will punch through your office window as it STREAKS into the night, HOWLING like a BANSHEE. Once free, it will spend the rest of its days SODOMIZING household PETS and MOCKING the POPE. Some filthy, disgusting miscreant... some no-good, low-down, good-for-nothing DIRTY SNAKE, in twisted pursuit of his own sadistic dreams, is sending this virus across the Net via an e-mail entitled "Free Money." What is so terrifying about this virus is that you do not even to have to open the e-mail for it to activate. In fact, you do not even need to RECEIVE the e-mail. You do not even need to OWN a COMPUTER. "Free Money" can infect even minor HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES. How it does this with straight ASCII code is, franky, a matter of some debate... but BELIEVE YOU US, if this weren't a SERIOUS situation, we wouldn't be discussing it in ALL CAPS. So for the LOVE OF GOD, forward this e-mail to all those you claim to care about, all those you purport to love. Don't do it later! Do it NOW! Now! Now! NOW! NOW! NOW!

Also be aware that certain SCSI devices have fuses in series with the term power line. I"ve seen these fuses blow on older Sun Sparc Stations and Adaptec 1542 host adapters just by yanking off the cable to one of the SCSI deviceson the bus, or by plugging the cable in to a device while it is powered up. If this device was supplying power to the terminators, or the host was supplying power TO this device and the fuse was blown, this could easily make the device look like it is inoperative, when in fact it was just a blown fuse. Now many mfgr's are using solid-state fuses, or transorbs as opposed to the old style fuse that had a tiny link that would burn open on current overload. These will re-connect the term power path after some time delay, once the overload has been eliminated.

Or less? There is no simple Yes or No to the question. It all depends.. You should consider the following A) On a hard disk there is a minimum adressable blocksize. If you have a large hard disk, this size is large. If thin minimum size is for example 30 kB, then it takes 3 MB to store 100 files that are 1 kB each, even if the sum of the filesizes equals 100 kB. In this case you waste 2.9 MB. If on the other hand you had put the files into an archive, such as the ZIP on the PC or StuffIt/.sit on Mac, then you would probably use only 90 kB and in the worst case 120 kB. B) A GKH file does contain a direct image of a floppy disk. It also contains the blocks on the floppy onto which there is no valid data. So the waste depends on how much free space there is on the floppy. C) An EFE file does contain a 512 byte header. That is 0.5 kB. If your floppy is completey full, and there are more than 15 instruments on the floppy, then the EFE files would require more 'net'/logical hard disk space than the GKH file. Otherwise ( less than 15, not completely full ) the GKH would require more 'net'/logical space. But from A) we see that the 'net'/logical space is not the same as the 'used'/physical space. Large files are more efficient. How much more efficient depends on the drive size ( and partition ) Both EFE files and GKH files would benefit from compression. The GKH. mostlu by compressing empty blocks, the EFE files mostly by putting them in archives yielding a more efficient allocation. Terje But really, if efficiency and waste of space is an issue, is win95 the way to go? ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

Again, let me know if we beat this to death. Obviously, sounds are a subjective thing but I thought the MR-61 was pretty cool. The ability to noodle with patterns and send them to the sequencer is very helpful. As for the sounds themselves, I thought they were a bit brighter and less fuzzy then the TS-10. As for the comparison with Korg gear -- they have some very impressive sounding stuff BUT the cost of most of it is very prohibitive. The nice thing with Ensoniq is you get lot's of BANG for the buck. I ,like many people I know, am guilty of needing to have the lastest and best of whatever is out there. But music really shouldn't be about that. I went over a guy's house last weekend and all he had for equipment was a '386 PC, a midi capable "home keyboard" by Yamaha, and his prized possession -- a TG-500. That's it. No effects board. No mixer. No 4 tracker. However, everything coming out of this system was KILLER!

Is it >>connected to the EPS or is it separate? I thought about powering the fans from the EPS internally, but since I vowed never to open it up myself (against my natural compulsion) I decided to use a variable 15volt DC power supply I had laying around. My total current for the 2 fans only adds up to about 450 milliamps @ 12 volts, so any 12 volt power pack from Radio Shack capable of half an amp would have worked. You could just cut the end off the Radio Shack power adapter and wire-nut it to the fans while observing polarity. For my angle bracket, I took aluminum sheeting and cut it down to a rectangle wide enough to span the three screws above the heat sink. I poked three holes for mounting the aluminum plate above the heat sink but under the back top of the EPS. I bent the plate as to be able to hold the fans flush against the heat sink's 45 degree (or so) angle and then poked four holes for the fans(2 holes per fan). Only two holes (for screws) are needed for each fan because the fans are held at the tops by the plate. The fans are flush against the back of the heat sink and protrude about 1/4" from the bottom of the heat sink. This is not a problem since the rubber feet of the EPS hold the EPS high enough to give you some clearance before the fans touch the table or whatever you put the EPS on. Since I had the parts laying around, it didn't cost me a cent. While the fans are semi-quiet, the variable power supply is nice because I can adjust the speed of the fans (aka: noise) if I plan to be sampling using the microphone and don't want to pick up the fan's background noise in the room. If there was enough of a demand perhaps Ensoniq would want to buy my idea! In totally unrelated news, it was so humid yesterday that my video camera wouldn't even stop reading "DEW". Was very frustrating. ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

There are devices like this that "remove" vocals from music tracks and i think they work by using phase cancellation methods. (I'm not that technically inclined!) This works some of the time and esp. works better using CDs rather than cassettes. The whole thing also depends on the mix of the tracks u are using as one experience of mine tells something : I tried to "vocal zap" Elton John's Crocodile Rock once and the zapper worked SUPERBLY in the verse but when chorus came,Elton's voice suddenly appeared hard left and hard right(!!)...not even the original mix... :P Khew ======================================== http://www.singnet.com.sg/~khewss/ ======================================== ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

That is ridiculous!! Yes, oh, yes. The following is reprinted from http://members.aol.com/chickenEPS/rcs_tips.htm#Floppy Commercially-available floppy drives for the EPS/ASR My Floppy is failing, can I use a computer floppy as a replacement? Nothing works perfectly with the Ensoniq, except the one you get from a Authorized Service Center. Ensoniq floppy drives adhere to the old Shugart floppy standard, which is not compatible with the new AT standard. That probably means that if you can get some OLD floppy drives, they might work. We cannot confirm this, though. However, there is a trick to get certain floppy drives (we are not sure which ones) to get them to work. Boot up with a floppy. You can navigate through the directory, and load one item. Then the EPS/ASR will lose contact The way to get it back is to access the OS in some way, like pressing SAMPLE Then you can load one more thing. I do not know if this works with the ASR, since it does not access the OS after the initial bootup. Also, if you are running SCSI, this might not be a problem, since you might rarely be accesssing the floppy in the first place. | * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * | | Garth Hjelte | | Customer Service Representative / Owner | | Rubber Chicken Software Co. | | 714 5th Street SE | | Willmar, MN 56201 USA | | | | 1-800-8-PRO-EPS - Toll Free Order Line | | 320-235-9798 - Technical Support and | | EPS/ASR/TS question line - Fax | | chickenEPS@willmar.com - e-mail | | OUR WEB PAGE | | http://members.aol.com/chickenEPS | | * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * | ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

The keyboard did, but the rack came with 4000 blocks. (SCSI was never stock on any 16-Plus, except the termed "Turbo" model) >What is the upgrade difference between the 2x and 4x Memory expanders >(which one can I use in the 16+?) Well, a "2x" expander for the 16 is different than the 2x for the EPS, because it is relative. There is no "4x" for the 16, because it starts with 2000 blocks in the first place. There was only a "2x" expander for the16, plus any Flashbank you had. >Any other advice would be helpful - i.e. where I can get a memory upgrade >if needed etc. Try Sound Logic - 1-619-789-6558 | * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * | | Garth Hjelte | | Customer Service Representative / Owner | | Rubber Chicken Software Co. | | 714 5th Street SE | | Willmar, MN 56201 USA | | | | 1-800-8-PRO-EPS - Toll Free Order Line | | 320-235-9798 - Technical Support and | | EPS/ASR/TS question line - Fax | | chickenEPS@willmar.com - e-mail | | OUR WEB PAGE | | http://members.aol.com/chickenEPS | | * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * | ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.

Believe it or not, I have no problem formatting EPS disks with a PC after they have already been formatted on the EPS. But I know EXACTLY what your talking about. Setting the really technical issues aside, the DOS FORMAT (all versions) command and Windows 3.1 file manager have an annoying habit of not being able to format diskettes if they can't really identify what the original format of the disk is, reading some kind of error like, "Track 0 bad - disk unusable". The way around this is to use some other program like DiskFactory or PcTools to format the diskettes, which work fine. Many, Many Many maaaaany times the DOS format failed to initialize diskettes that other programs would format, and it isn't dependant upon the drive either, it's happened to me on all kinds of PC's at work. You can download DiskFactory from your friendly neighborhood CompuServe connection. (PS: I've also had the same problem with BULK-ERASED floppies.) - -rsp ============================================================================= This mailing list is processed through Majordomo at Oakland University.
