Emu ESi to Akai/Pulsar/MESA Translation

An Emu Bank or Preset, if dropped on an Akai Partition, translates into an Akai Volume, with the individual Presets becoming Programs and the Samples of course becoming Akai Samples. Stereo samples are split into -L and -R counterparts.

The Akai only plays back samples at 44.1kHz or 22.05kHz, so any sample rates other than these are adjusted to the nearest available sample rate and the root key and fine tunings are adjusted accordingly.

Translator has been extensively designed to translate Emu sounds not only to Akai itself, but also to appropriately load into "Akai-compatible" samplers as well. Please see the Miscellaneous topic Akai-compatible Compliance Support for more information.
