Cakewalk E-MU Proteus Pack Xtreme Lead 1
Cakewalk's new range repackages the patches from the E-MU sound modules of the 90s in a convenient software format compatible with their Dimension Pro synth.
And for the time being, purchasing any of the range will entitle you to a free Dimension LE download.
Despite that offer it's actually Dimension Pro users who will get the most from Xtreme Lead 1 as many of the patches cry out for tweaking, especially the bass tones.
There are hundreds of other presets beyond those, though, including synths, pads, one-shot kits and effects.
