E-MU Ultra Proteus 90's Z-Plane Synthesiser 1U Rack / UltraProteus
Rare and awesome Z-Plane synth released by E-MU systems in the early 90's. It is made up of 16MB of ROM samples comprised of five preset banks. The first three are internal with the last two being accessed via the front panel card slot. This slot is PCMCIA compliant and accepts either ROM cards or user RAM cards (these cards are not included). Each bank contains 128 presets. The hyper presets are used for layering other presets, or setting up keyboard zones for using multiple presets with different keys.
The UltraProteus is based on the same engine as it’s sister, the Morpheus, but an entirely different sound set and additional filters (288 compared to 197 in the Morpheus). The 16MB sound ROM includes the complete sample set of the Proteus 1, 2 and 3! In addition, it includes new drum sounds, new waveforms, and the Performance stereo grand piano. This gives it a great assortment of bright, acoustic instrumental sounds. (While the UltraProteus has the entire sample set from the Proteus 1, 2 and 3, it doesn’t contain all the presets, just the highlights).
