The Orbit is an EMU sound module, they have put out 5 that I know of in a
series, the first three were the Orbit, Planet Phatt and Carnival, each of
which have 600+ patches optimized for techno/dance, hiphop and Latin
styles,
respectively.
Recently they came out with an upgraded Planet Phatt called the Mo'Phatt,
and
another one that's more techno style patches, the name of which escapes
me.
But you should be able to find them on the web, just search for an EMU web
site. The Orbit and Planet Phatt seemed pretty similar, I just needed some
good sounds and the place I was shopping at had a demo model of the Orbit
that I could afford!! But it's packed with good stuff.....

I know it'll do it, I just am having a problem finding out how to do it in
the manual. I'm not super familiar with Midi and sequencing, I'm coming
from
a guitar background instead of a keyboard background, so it's a little
tough
for me, as well as the fact that different manufacturers write their
manuals
in totally different ways, using different phrases and words to acheive
the
same ends.... it gets frustrating sometimes!
Anyway, thanks much for your input. If you have any other questions about
the
Orbit, let me know and I'll try to answer!!
