Hamburg, Germany, July
7, 2000 -- The Native Instruments Pro-52 carries on the tradition from the
legendary days of vintage cult synthesizers. This virtual instrument for
Macintosh and Windows platforms combines the sonic properties of the unique
originals with the practical requirements of the present day.
Inspired by the sound of the synthesizer giants of the eighties, Native
Instruments created the Pro-52, to cast in software those qualities which
have been a major influence on popular music in the past twenty years: brilliance,
power, warmth and beauty. Using Native Instruments' NSP-Technology (Native
Signal Processing) it is built entirely in software, the Pro-52 offers several
advantages over its hardware counterpart: no fixed limit to the number of
voices, many times more preset memories, velocity sensitivity, MIDI automation
of all available parameters and the option to run several Pro-52's in parallel.
The Pro-52 is able to import Prophet-5 SysEx sound data, which means
it can read and accurately reproduce all the existing sound libraries made
for the original. The subtle deviations from perfect behavior which are
typical of analog circuits and crucial to the sound, can now be fine-tuned.
A built-in effects unit adds multi-echo and ultra-fat chorus and flanging
effects. This makes the sound of the Pro-52 complete for both live performance
and studio production. The included preset sounds make extensive use of
the effects. The Pro-52 also has an audio input, for processing external
audio signals through its filters.
The Native Instruments Pro-52 integrates perfectly into the computer based
virtual studio. With the popular interfaces VST 2.0 and ASIO pioneered by
Steinberg, it can be used as a sequenzer Plug-In or as a stand-alone Synthesizer.
