E.P.S.S. and Cubase on Atari STe

- E.P.S.S. (Enhanced Polyphonic Sample Synthesizer) working as a plugin to Cubase 3 on Atari STe.
E.P.S.S. is a bit like VST, but arrived already in 1990 in the Atari demo scene. It plays eight channels at 25 kHz mixing (and on the Mega STe, 16 channels). The sound driver and patch file is controlled with E.P.S.S. Accessory running in parallel with Cubase. Cubase have an MROS driver to use for talking with the E.P.S.S. Accessory.
All this in 1990! Years ahead of anything like it.
You could also use the Cubase score in your own productions using the E.P.S.S. sound driver and MIDI file player. It doesn't use more CPU than your normal Protracker MOD-file player, and runs completely off VBL for minimum hassle.
Worked for 20 years every day. zero crash, zero reinstall ... But we needed an extra glas in front of the monitor because that was unhealthy...
Hey , these are my songs :) i don't even remember all those mixes , this was very funny to hear.
All songs was recorded with samples from my beloved Roland S-50. The story behind this is wonderful indeed.
Cheers all

+Per Jemta Is there some way I can contact you?
Haha hittar dig jämt å så! ;)
hah!

; excellent !!!
Let's hear this wonderful story Gem Two.
Wow... 3 decades later and it's so heartwarming to see that structurally speaking Cubase didn't change that much from a visual perspective. Functionally speaking though, completely different story! Great video!
I think those 6 dislikes have an Amiga
Amazing what this system was doing with MIDI back in the day!
I'm super impressed with this plugin, I had no idea there was a workflow with Cubase that didn't require any instruments in 1990. Crazy!! I wish I knew then!!
I love this acid sounds! Great Program!!!
Looks better than some stuff today lol
I started off with Cubase on the ST. Plus I remixed popcorn years later lol.....l great tunes buddy.....
Quel souvenir
Great, Atari forever !!
Thanks.
It's not a synthesizer, the authors call it a "sample synthesizer" which simply means that the instruments are samples and not waveforms (although the sample could be a pre-generated waveform of course). All sound is coming from E.P.S.S. on the Atari STe.
Pure magic!
Atari forever.
Thanks for your help. I'll check it out and hopefully it will do the trick. :)
love it thank you !
very good
I've checked some new synth workstations and many of them dropped the Track view and the Pianoroll view, which are the most useful aspects when composing, not a stupid Pattern view. Only the new Roland Phantom 6 did re-implement these views, but no Yamaha. They had this on their QY 700 sequencer but not on the Motif XS and Montage. It seems so stupid that they stopped using these special views on synths...the Akai MPC One rediscovered the Pianoroll view but not the Track view, that was a dealbreaker for me, "hate" the Pattern layout on the new synths.
Cubase. The first and still (in my book) the best. Thankfully Pro 10 is easier on the eye than Pro-24
What a nightmare the Score editor! Good memories anyway! I made a similar video to this.
YEAH. !!
Thanks! :)
One more question: I used to use Notator on my 1040ste and really miss using it for sequencing. Steem engine has the ability to overcome the Notator dongle security, however after testing it myself, I found that the sequencer crashes continuously. (see this video: watch?v=S01aXLPy47s) Can the Hatari emulator run Notator without issues on Linux and Windows?
damn darude made sandstorm in this
😎🤘
cool
As the description says, it's an Atari program.
so are the sounds built into EPSS, or can you load your own samples in? This is really interesting
You can sample anything into this, including your own voice.
Is it made made buyable/downloadable for mac-users?
I have no clue to tell the truth. Hatari 1.7 is due for release soon (in a few weeks) might be a good idea to test it then, I know some MIDI changes have been made very recently.
how have artists not been usinc cubase to make music in 2019?
how did you screen capture this?
Does EPSS takeover all midi outputs from cubase or can you use it at teh same time with external midi. Thank for the vid ;)
It seems to appear as a separate output in Cubase.
sqward thanks!
This is so cool, but I do not understand? how do I find the E.P.S.S ? How do you get it showing up in that left upper corner? I have Cubase and Atari 1040ste

@@evldhsmisc Cool! Thanks!
JAW DROPS TO FLOOR!!
Just look how shite modern computing is now, bogged down by BLOAT😳
Pro 10 protection runs at 96mb. Insane.
"...a bit like VST" :)
Is the second track an actual song? If not, would love to use the chord progression?
+Lazaro Aguilar It is from the Atari STe demo "Dynamite" and composed by Gem Two (Per Jemta, he has commented on this video as well).
Here is the file on Demozoo: demozoo.org/music/103218/
Preset for the keyboard sound?
when i load it up it says the patch file is missing :(
Startling really, what was possible
I want a version of cubase like this for windows 10. No bloatware no audio , just good old midi only sequencing.Cubase was better back then for midi only sequencing. I have used cubase since ataris. I think its shitter and slower to use now than it was back then. Steinberg do not answer questions as regards fetching out a midi only version.
got an 520STE with 2MB ram but i cant launch Cubase 2.0 or 3.0 because the prg is too big for HD Floppy Disk. I try to change the floppy drive with sucess but the atari dont reconized the 2HD floppy anyway :'(
I have a smaller version, check my video "Atari ST and Cubase 2.0 Steem emulator" and you'll find a link in the description.
You need a cubase dongle not RAM
@@texacomann The STE emulator doesn't need any dongle, neither the cubase cracked version.
cant you hook up a hard drive? megafile?
Hatari emulator (screen recording is slower than realtime, so mouse movements can look inhumanly quick :)
All that in Hatari? Timing sounds decent and jitter free...how are you able to get it so?
@@SiMills The only setting I've done out of standard is setting audio to 50066 Hz to match the STe DAC speed 1:1.
1 megabyte. Bonkers.
@R. M Yeah but in THIS case the atari is doing the sampling also. Which IS Bonkers.
Can anyone help me I have a very very old cuebase on my old Atari ste and I have several songs (projects) which I want to retrieve from the machine and put them onto my new Cubase 9 s/w
I have been writing on Cubase 4 for ages but the studio pc died, I have plenty of Cubase project folders on the hard drive of the studio pc that died which I'm sure I can easily transfer to Cubase 9,
but its my very old early stuff on my old Atari ste that I would love to translate into readable files for my new Cubase 9
(I should have done this years ago onto Cubase 4 before my PC died but never got round to it)... Is this at all possible, any help would be much appetited, cheers Kev
You need to import and export a few times using different versions of Cubase. So I think VST 5.1 can import the Atari song files, and then you can export that and import into SX, and from SX into the next version of Cubase on the PC etc. Eventually you will get it into v9.
EXTRA !!!

Ever wondered how the mega successful 80s and 90s project SNAP! by Luca Anzilotti and Michael Münzing got it's name? pause at 3 seconds and look below where the mouse cursor is...
