UltraProteus
UltraProteus is a new type of music synthesizer which upholds the legendary
Proteus tradition of crystal-clear sounds while significantly furthering the
evolution of electronic sound synthesis.
Many electronic instruments today involve the technology of sampling, where
sounds are digitally recorded and played back at different pitches. Sampling has
the advantage of highly accurate and realistic sound. One disadvantage of
sampling is that once the sounds are recorded, it is difficult to change them in
any significant way.
UltraProteus incorporates the E-mu Z-Plane filter, which has the ability to
smoothly change its function over time. This ultra-powerful device can accu-
rately simulate the resonance of musical instruments, the human voice or
create entirely new timbres. The Z-Plane filter is composed of up to eight
complex filters for unprecedented control over subtle aspects of the sound.
UltraProteus contains sixteen megabytes of Pop, Rock, Orchestral and World
samples from the Proteus family of instruments. In addition, it includes hot
new drum sounds, new waveforms, and the Proformance
™
stereo grand piano.
This amazing array of sounds can be combined or spliced, modulated and then
shaped through one of 288 Z-Plane filters. Sampled sounds can be re-shaped
and expressively controlled, allowing you to articulate the subtle nuances of
complex instruments.
The 16 bit sound samples are arranged into 256 preset locations, 128 of which
are user-programmable. 128 user-programmable
Hyperpresets
allow ultra-
flexible keyboard mapping of presets. The optional memory card lets you create
an expandable library of your favorite presets and hyperpresets.
UltraProteus features two studio-quality effects processors with 28 different
effects to choose from. Hyperpresets allow you to have up to 32 different sounds
on the keyboard at one time in any desired arrangement. Sounds can be placed
side by side or layered with velocity control. The ability to respond multi-
timbrally to all 16 MIDI channels makes UltraProteus ideally suited for multi-
track sequencing and composing using a MIDI sequencer.
Other features include 3 stereo outputs for individually processing sounds (also
configurable as 6 polyphonic submixes with fully programmable panning),
integral sends and returns to allow the addition of external effects units without
the need for a separate mixer, user definable alternate tuning, and of course, an
extensive MIDI implementation.
