urtle Beach Tropez Plus

   
The Tropez Plus is
a sound card,
a synthesiser
and a Digital MIDI sampler
all in one.

The best just got better ... award-winning Tropez technology, the PC Magazine Editors'

Choice for best multimedia sound card, makes room for Tropez Plus, the next generation

SampleStore technology not only give you the best 32-voice Wavetable synthesizer on

the market today, but by adding your own RAM (up to 12MB), you can add any WAVE audio

file for a limitless palette of sound.

Then bring your music tracks alive using effects in the MIDI synthesizer ... like delay,

drives.
