Thread Starter | ensoniq eps What's going on guys. I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a difference between the sound of the regular eps vs the eps 16. I know the eps is 12bit and the eps is 16 bit. I just wanted to know if there is a more audible crunchiness to the eps 16. thanks. |

| Well I don't know what answer you found, but to me the 16 plus sounds better than the EPS. I think it's because of the Effects. 16 plus sounds better than the ASR to me too, but the memory thing forces you to be clever with samples. BaseJase Illynoise |

Thread Starter | Thanks for the reply. I was planning on using it strickly to process drum samples to add a little bit of grit. I also have an asr10. I just wanted a dirtier sound for drum samples and found an eps16 for dirt cheap, just wanted to see if it might be a good purchase or does the 16bits clean it up too much. Also do you no if the filters are digital or analog because I keep finding conflicting information about that. |

| Both the EPS and EPS 16 have digital filters, but they sound damn good and 'analogue'. The 16 has the 24dB filter and 2 high pass filters as opposed to EPS single high pass. |

I was merely pointing out the difference between the two re the filters. | |
