All music and sounds designed with the Shock Expansion ROM by Mauricio Balma
March 2023

Exhaust - Shock Treatment ROM-

some of the first sounds from the new ROM for the synthesizers E-mu  Command Station and Proteus Modules.  
The last ROM was produced 20 years ago.  Shock Treatment, is the first ROM produced since E-mu Systemns left the synthesizer market in 2003.

E - Mu Shock Treatment ROM Demo

Pad demostration from the new upcoming 32MB  ROM expansion for the legendary  E-mu synthesizers, Command Stations and Proteus. 
This new addtion to the E-mu Libraries -after 20 years of absence, will bring new functionalities to a 2003 sampler.  But this is  E-Mu :).

Macabre

Music created using only the new sound library for the last synthesizers released by the legendary E-Mu Systems. 
40 years ago,  a new musical era was born, sampling technology reaches the masses with the release of the E-mu Emulator II.  A new musical instrument that will  empower musicians like never before. There were samplers before the Emulator II, but  out of reach for most of the musicians due to its price.   
20 years after the success of the  E-mu Emulator, and the legaly left to contemporaneous music, E*mu releases the Command Stations and Proteus Modules along with several Sound Expansion Libraries (ROM format). Just after  the release, they will close operations, at least in the synth market, to become Creative Labs.
No more ROMs have been released since then. 
But the production of sound expansion libraries for the E-mu machines, is back in 2024, and will supply a variety of sound collections and presets, for all the loyal users of these amazing instruments.

Time for Karma

Time for Karma -Control I-

Classical optimization methodologies  fall short in very large and complex domains.
With a sampler, you can use any sound in the world to invent your own music. That is empowering. What are you doing with yours? :)
I  have seen a lot of people who have been getting a record label together, they get a lot of artists on their label and when the day comes to pay this artists they do not pay these artists. This is happenning with Techno, actually a lot of the artists have suddenly realized that, once again a   music scene is created of the back of the underground musicians who never got paid for what  they did. Bringing music back to what it originally was.
