Hi Gary C. – No you do not need any Emu hardware to run the free Proteus VX. This works fine in Sonar and it has some very good sounds in it.

Hi Gary N – I tried loading the Proteus VX in BiaB and I couldn’t get it to work properly. I use BiaB as a backing track builder and load the corresponding midi files into Sonar to polish and modify so I’m not an expert on loading VST’s into BiaB. However no matter what I did I could not get it to work in BiaB. For the record I’m using Win XP – SP2 on my 3.2 GHz computer with 2 gigs of ram. Good luck!


Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!
