CHAPTER 23. LIVE INSTRUMENT REFERENCE 445
The EIC presets are available in Full and Lite versions, allowing you to choose the right
balance of delity and polyphony for your needs. The Lite version reduces CPU, RAM and
disk requirements by reducing the number of zones and sample layers used. Both the
normal and Lite presets use 24-bit multisamples.
There is also an EIC LE Pack available which contains very efcient versions of the EIC
instruments suitable for sketching out ideas. The LE instruments are all composed of 16-bit
sample les.
All of the EIC presets are conveniently mapped to Macro Controls for greater expression.
