Emu ESi to Roland MV-8000 Translation

Roland Patches only support up to 4 "layers" (simultaneously available pieces of wavedata per key). See Roland MV page for more information how Translator converts objects which exceed this limitation.

This page refers to the new MV-8000 sample-playback machine. Translator supports both the S-700 and MV-8000 formats; it is able to write to the older Roland proprietary format disk or Virtual Drive, and write the new MV-8000 .svd/.svp/.wav format.

Currently Roland MV-8000 translations are "Level One", meaning that they handle the basics - looping, tuning, mapping, and other basics. The Envelopes and other sound modifiers will be included shortly.
