In 1990, the E-mu Proteus/2 Orchestral module arrived as a 1U rack unit that essentially "democratized" the symphonic sound. While its predecessor (Proteus/1) was a general-purpose tool, the Proteus/2 focused entirely on realistic strings, woodwinds, and classical percussion.

- The Orchestral Palette: Strings, brass, winds, and percussion that were realistic enough for TV scoring but "synthy" enough for pop production.
- The Filters: Emu’s legendary digital filters allowed you to shape these static samples into evolving, dynamic patches.
- The "Glassy" Sound: The DACs and sample rate gave the Proteus a distinct high-end sheen that cuts through a mix perfectly.
- Sample collection: The first step in creating a soundfont is to collect high-quality audio samples of the instrument or sound you want to recreate. This can involve recording the instrument directly, or using existing sample libraries.
- Sample editing: Once you have collected your samples, you'll need to edit them to ensure they are of the highest quality. This may involve trimming, looping, and processing the samples using audio editing software.
- Soundfont creation: Once you have edited your samples, you can create a soundfont using specialized software such as Soundfont Maker or SfontEdit. These programs allow you to map the samples to the keyboard, apply effects, and set loop points.
- Soundfont editing: Once you have created a soundfont, you can edit it to fine-tune the sound. This may involve adjusting the sample playback settings, tweaking the filter cutoff, or adjusting the envelope settings.
