The header of the bank contains the string "EMU SI-32 v3" which is not understood by the EMU ESi-32 unit that expects "EMULATOR 3X" there.

So then I created an empty bank on the unit itself and retrieved it from the unit. Then, back on Linux, I had overwritten the file /usr/local/share/emu3bm/empty_bank and then created a new bank.

After adding the presets, samples and zones, I could then read the resulting file on the unit without any issue. (It does seem that the VCF is configured strange, the Q is at 100% which causes samples to play at a very low volume but that could easily be fixed on the unit itself.)

I have attached the empty bank file to this ticket. Perhaps you could include it.

empty_bank_emu3x.zip

It would be great if there was a way to show envelope parameters in seconds like 1.23s.

It would be useful if it were possible to list the zones in a certain preset.

I have not found a way to edit an existing zone, which would be really useful.

I had made a mistake with a note assignment and the only way to remedy this was to create an entirely new bank and redo all the work.

Full steps I needed to do to get a build:

autoreconf -i
./configure
make
sudo make install
