The new E-MU Virtuoso 2000 is a 128-voice expandable orchestral sound module that provides the modern composer/musician with a brand new comprehensive orchestral sound set in a state-of-the-art package. E-MU's sound designers spent months sampling dozens of solo and section instruments, all from the same professional symphony orchestra, to develop an orchestral ROM sound set that is second to none in realism, versatility and consistency throughout all of its instrument sections. These samples have been meticulously crafted into presets optimized for the Virtuoso 2000's powerful architecture - the same platform as E-MU's award-winning Proteus 2000 sound module. With its 128-voice polyphony and lightning-fast MIDI response, the Virtuoso 2000 will play back your massive sequences with perfect timing. With over 25 years of sampling and audio experience, E-MU has created an orchestral masterpiece - the Virtuoso 2000.
