Professional studio musicians and serious audiophiles playing at home might want the highest-quality tones they can hear, but only need a narrow range of synthesized instruments.
Some MIDI sound modules are designed for touring musicians who need a rugged device they can take on the road. On top of that, specific modules exist to meet different types of musicians’ needs. Not only are companies manufacturing new modules all of the time, but many have begun to develop sound modules that emulate the sounds of classic synthesizers. Choosing a sound module can feel like an overwhelming task.
