E-mu Releases EOS Link Software

October 24, 1999

E-MU / ENSONIQ has announced that EOS Link is now shipping. EOS Link is a software program that allows a user to control an Emulator 4 series sampler from a Mac or PC over SCSI. The software program comes bundled free of charge with the E4XT Ultra, E-Synth Ultra, and E-6400 Ultra, samplers, and is available for a nominal charge for the new E5000 Ultra sampler or previous models of the E4 sampler line.

Remote control of sampler possible

The EOS Link software program provides remote operation of any E4 sampler with EOS 4.01. Using SCSI for communication, the software package displays a representation of the front panel of the unit and allows the user to operate the unit as if they were right in front of it. Multiple units can be controlled with, the program (up to the number of available SCSI IDs on the bus), allowing large sampler installations to be easily managed. The program is particularly convenient for loading sounds, programming presets, and performing DSP operations using a computer monitor for display, as well as facilitating better integration with large MIDI studios by centralizing the control of the E4 samplers from a computer.

Mac or PC Operation

The program operates on both Macintosh (Version 7.0 or later) or Windows 95, 98, or NT, and requires at least 8MB of RAM, a CD-ROM drive, and a SCSI card, to be installed in the computer. Installation is a simple drag and drop operation and all the documentation for the program is contained on the disc.

The Emulator 4 being used with the program must have EOS version 4.01 or later to be compatible with this program.

Available on the web

Users of older E4 samplers are able to download EOS Link from E-MU's website as part of the EOS 4.01 upgrade software package, available in both the on-line shopping and sampler support areas of the site.
