Actually, I was looking for this information for 3 years!...now thanks to you, the manual is on my hands and of great help, cause I understand now where I was doing wrong connections and wires...excellent, I'll be back to you if in need, thank you.
This manual covers the main equipment features only. While it also includes the procedure for saving and loading from the now long obsolete memory cards it does not mention the how to operate with the optional floppy drive interface so I am still at a loss about how to use this! Note that there is a separate manual covering the MIDI interface and programming via the keyboard, not included in this download. You will also need to get hold of this if you want to use the MIDI interface properly. Basically there is little difference between this manual and the free to download manual for the similar PR60 model.

E-MU VST E-Wire
E-Wire is a special VST/ASIO Bridge which allows you to route digital audio via ASIO to PatchMix and back again. E-Wire VST incorporates smart time alignment technology that automatically compensates for system latencies and ensures proper synchronization of audio throughout the VST chain. In addition, E-Wire also allows you to insert outboard audio gear into the VST environment. E-Wire has three main components: � A VST plug-in which handles the audio routing to PatchMix DSP. � An ASIO mixer strip in PatchMix DSP con�gured to route audio to the E-Wire plug-in. You simply drop the effects you want to use into this strip. � For hosts that don�t support automatic delay compensation, a manual delaycompensation plug-in can be inserted in Cubase tracks or channels that don�t use E-Wire to compensate for ASIO delay. The diagram below may give you a better idea of how E-Wire works:
E Note: It�s easier to use
E-MU PowerFX instead of E-Wire if you just want to use the hardware effects. (E-Wire was the precursor to E-MU PowerFX.) However, E-Wire can be very useful because it allows you to route VST inserts or Sends to Physical Inputs and Outputs via PatchMix DSP .

E-Wire bridges the gap between hardware I/O and the VST world. The E-Wire VST plug-in sends audio to a strip containing the desired effect. An ASIO Send routes the audio back to E-Wire VST. 66 Creative Professional
