Emu Proteus 2 Soundfont [ Top ]

The Ahh Choir and Ooh Choir are legendary. They’re synthetic, breathy, and slightly out of tune in the best possible way. Process them with reverb and chorus, and you have the soundtrack to every fantasy RPG from the late 90s.

The Proteus 2 Soundfont is a direct conversion of the original Proteus 2 ROM’s 8MB sample set into the SoundFont 2.0 format. It contains the exact same 16-bit, 44.1kHz (or 32kHz original) multisamples, complete with the original loop points, envelopes, and filter settings recreated as closely as possible.

This isn’t a “remastered” or “polished” version. It retains the raw, compressed, slightly lo-fi character that made the original so distinctive. Think of it as an orchestral library that sounds like it was recorded in a small, dark room through a warm preamp — and then sampled by Emu’s legendary engineers.

The Emu Proteus 2 Soundfont refers to a set of sampled instrument sounds derived from the Emu Proteus 2 series of hardware sound modules, converted into the SoundFont format (SF2). The original Proteus 2 modules were professional rackmount sample-based sound modules produced by E-MU Systems in the 1990s, known for high-quality multisampled instruments and widely used in film, TV, and music production. Converting Proteus 2 ROM samples to SoundFont makes those sounds usable in modern MIDI software samplers and DAWs. The Proteus 2 Soundfont is a direct conversion
