EIII Remote Controller & Librarian
   Software (written by Bob Bliss at E-mu Systems)

Overview This Mac software was launched by E-mu Systems in 1989, and it was actively developed up until 1992. It provides total remote control of all the front panel functions of an EIII keyboard or rack, plus a librarian facility to catalogue all your samples on hard disks and removable disks attached to your EIII.

The software was written by Bob Bliss at E-mu Systems, and it was later upgraded to be the EIIIx Remote Control Software.The part number was 6092, and it retailed for $295.

E-mu Systems ran out of copies of the software in the late 1990's, and it is now only available from The Emulator Archive.



Hooking it up ! The software communicates with the Emulator III via both the IN and OUT MIDI interfaces, and preferably on a dedicated basis. Once the EIII is powered on, the Mac is booted up and the software is launched. The screen displays are an exact duplication of the front panel.

Many thanks to Thomas Weissenberger for finding this software.

The software requires an Apple Mac with a 1MHz MIDI communication interface and at least 128k bytes of RAM.

It will not work on the more recent PowerMacs, so you will need an original Mac II or ideally the faster and later Quadras.

The Mac OS needs to be 4.2 or higher, and we suggest the EIII be at OS 2.4 or higher.
