Automated sample acquisition and preset creation
Emulator X makes sampling as easy as loading a preset by offering intelligent, automated sampling and preset creation from both external audio and batch files, allowing you to turn a .WAV file into a fully functioning preset in seconds with a single click of your mouse.

Advanced synthesis architecture
No software sampler can match the depth of the Emulator X synthesis engine, with 36 patchcords per voice, over 50 patented Z-Plane morphing filters, multi-wave LFO's, conditional voice modulation, clock modulation and a host of other synthesis features and parameters. You can even save your favorite synth setups as templates for quick editing.

Standalone or VSTi operation
You can use Emulator X as a VSTi instrument within your favorite sequencer program or run it standalone for maximum system performance.

RAM and Streaming playback
Emulator X offers you playback from both RAM and hard disk for total flexibility in optimizing the performance of your system.
