PreSonus announces the Sceptre -series CoActual studio reference monitors.

Featuring an advanced coaxial design that works integrally with a 32-bit, 96 kHz, dual-core processor using Fulcrum Acoustic's TQ Temporal Equalization technology, Sceptre CoActual monitors deliver clarity and coherence that has previously only been available in ultra-high-end systems.

Yet they are an affordable investment for project-studio owners-a first for DSP-controlled, TQ-based systems.

Dedicated piano, organ, and synth sound engines—organized in three intuitive blocks on the front panel—provide all the essential tones you need, right under your fingertips.

The powerful real-time controls give you maximum expression on stage, with nine sliders for tone shaping and a large array of knobs and buttons for tweaking the seven simultaneous effects and various parameters.
- Looper and built-in rhythm patterns; WAV/MP3/SMF song playback via optional USB memory
- Free VR-09 Editor app available for iPad.

The ADA8200 is a state-of-the-art, 8-channel A/D and D/A converter with 8 onboard MIDAS-designed mic preamps.

Users can connect their favorite mics, including studio-grade condensers thanks to built-in true +48 V power, and record directly to a multi-track or computer-based recorder via the built-in ADAT interface. Digital to analog and analog to digital conversion takes place accurately and instantaneously via reference-class Cirrus Logic 24-bit converters, with the user's choice of either 44.1 or 48 kHz resolution.

The new RECEPTOR TRIO features a new quad-core processing engine, a 1TB hard drive, 8GB of RAM, and comes bundled with a PreSonus 1818 audio interface for up to 18 inputs and outputs.

The new TRIO model features a new and improved 64-bit operating system with Intellibridge technology that lets you run 32-bit and 64-bit plug-ins simultaneously as well as expanding the capabilities of Muse Research's exclusive LIVE MODE, the ground-breaking live performance technology that first appeared in their VIP model.

True Keys is a piano virtual instrument. It was created by recording nearly 50,000 audio files using some of the best microphones and recording equipment available today.
Then, the audio files were matched to their corresponding piano, note, microphone position and velocity to build an electronic version of the piano that was sampled. They sampled three of the most popular grand pianos in the world for True Keys (Fiazoli, Steinway and Bechstein).
