Digital Sound Factory employs musicians and performs detailed recordings of their instruments. The recordings are processed using digital signal processors and mapped to a MIDIpiano keyboard. Modern music, television, movies, and advertisements are composed using these sounds by electronic musicians Using software synthesizers, composers can have a large collection of sound content on command. Since 1971 the sound libraries at E-mu Systems were recorded into samples designed to play back audio on physical hardware. Digital Sound Factory has an exclusive license with E-mu to re-master the primary source libraries to function on modern computer formats. Digital Sound Factory's first releases include the E-mu Systems Proteus and Emulator sounds, the Ensoniq ASR/EPS/TS sounds, and brand new sound libraries recorded recently independent of the E-MU sound library. Digital Sound Factory's content is integrated with: Cakewalk Creative Labs E-MU Systems Line 6 Open Labs PreSonus Propellerhead Software Yamaha Music Corporation
