PRESS RELEASE

TASCAM Introduces Giga Virtual Instrument 4 At AES

October 15, 2007

TASCAM is proud to announce that Giga Virtual Instrument 4 (GVI 4) will be available for Intel-based Macs this year. Previously only available for Windows users, GVI is the only plug-in sampler instrument powered by the Giga sampling engine, and shares many of the specs that made GigaStudio the first choice for professionals worldwide, such as unlimited polyphony, 96kHz/24-bit sample support and embedded GigaPulse convolution. GVI 4 for Mac runs as a 16-part multi-timbral plug-in instrument in Audio Unit, VSTi and RTAS formats, for compatibility with virtually all Mac professional applications—including Pro Tools and Logic Pro. GVI offers unobstructed access to the finest Giga sound libraries in the world and the tremendous power of Giga.

"Everyone knows that GigaStudio has been the go-to sampler for composers, producers and creative musicians everywhere," says Jim Bailey, TASCAM Giga Product Development Manager. "Yet many musicians have craved the power of GigaStudio on their favorite computer platform, the Mac. Now that reality is just around the corner."
