E-MU has been a front-runner in the world of sampling and sound modules for over 30 years. Their innovative and now-legendary Emulator sampler broke the sampling world wide open in the '80s, used by everyone from Depeche Mode to Yes (even Ferris Bueller used one!). E-MU followed that with the groundbreaking Proteus series, offering sample playback at an amazingly low price. Now with their creative energies being poured into virtual emulations of their classic synths and affordable recording hardware for PCs, E-MU continues to push the boundaries of synthesis.
