Hallo @Somnambulist, you have to drag the individual banks into the Presence window, then it will convert the SF2, after which you can select and play them in the Presence Browser.

 

Thanks

 

@PulseWave My hardware Proteus when you chose a bank had lots of sounds in it. This seems to load only one? Is it actually loading the whole bank because there does not seem to be a selection other than the top which then loads presence sounds?

 

I'm surprised no one mentioned Impact Soundworks Super Audio Cart 2. They directly mention Proteus (and many others from the time period). It's not a direct emulation, but I would be hard pressed to believe it doesn't sound like the games that used Proteus in the soundtrack.

Super Audio Cart 2 is a lot of fun, but finding the Proteus sounds? Just load up the Digital Sound Factory samples for Kontakt. They're not as bad as some here make them out to be. I've had no desire to fire up my actual Proteus modules. Honestly, I get more of that era's vibe from the Roland D-50 Cloud VST, the JV-880 or Korg stuff. Those patches are still very useful. And yeah, I have a D-50 and D-550 and DX-7 and TX modules and a bunch of other vintage gear just sitting in a corner of my studio. None of it has been plugged in for years. Once I got over my "hardware is better" bias, I've never looked back.
