The SPL-12 Sampling Percussion Librarian is a companion app for the E-mu SP-12 Sampling Percussion drum machine. The application makes no sound on it's own. It's purpuse is to provide a convenient way to save and load sequencer and sound memory data via a MIDI connection. A built-in manual will guide you through the process of connecting your unit. A provided set of sample banks help you to verify your MIDI connection first and you can upgrade to the full version with a one-time in-app purchase to load your own sounds and sequences. We hope enthusiasts will find this utility useful and keep the spirit of 12-bit sampling alive for many years to come. Enjoy!
