Also, take care not to click any folders or files in the left window as that will navigate out of the E4B files in the right window. Note: It may be necessary to scroll up in the left window to make other folders/drives visible first. In Translator, select all the E4B files in the right window and drag them to the mounted E-mu format virtual drive in the left window. The E4B files should appear in the right window. In Translator, browse to the folder containing the E4B files using the left window. In Translator, choose the menu item “Tools/Register Items/Virtual Drives/Single” and browse to the newly created CD img file. Name the img file something appropriate like “my_EOS_CD.img” or similar. A smaller size can be manually entered if the total size of the banks is smaller than 650MB, but there’s not much point with large modern hard drives and ZIP/RAR compression schemes. Choose “E-mu” as the image type, and pick CD-ROM (650MB). In Translator, choose the menu item “Tools/Create Virtual Drive/New”. Hit to open the “Format Options” window, and select the “Emu” tab. Note: A standard (non-FAT) EOS sampler cannot be used for this as its drive is in a proprietary format typically unreadable by computers. If using Emulator X3 then “File/Export” the banks as E4B format files, or if using a FAT-compatible sampler then connect its drive to the computer and copy the E4B files over.

A model without FAT support can be used to create the banks initially, but will ultimately need to be loaded into a sampler with FAT support for transfer anyway. Why can’t you just be FAT like your brothers?!Ĭreate (or load) the custom banks using Emulator X3 or a FAT-compatible EOS sampler.
