This article lists Jakko’s gear in his Silesia Sound Studios, including this one.

Among the outboard sound modules McAloon likes to use when choosing final sounds are an EMU Proteus orchestral unit, Korg TR–Rack and two Roland Sound Canvases. The results are recorded to his Tascam MX2424 hard-disk recorder. “I use a lot of sounds that I suppose were designed for dance music,” he points out. “But I use them way out of context. I’ll use one part of the sound and treat it, put it through a delay or put flange on it. I’m trying to disguise the lack of finesse that may exist in the original sound sources.”

"I'm very fond of these 'orchestras‑in‑a‑box' like the Proteus 2 — on which I wrote Dream Suite — and I'm trying out Roland's new MCC10 Orchestral module at the moment. I get a big kick out of opening up something and taking out an instrument that weighs only 10 ounces! I want something which I can carry over my shoulder, so I've just got a tiny little portable Korg, because one of my needs is to be able to write whilst on the road. I like Korg machines too. I like the company and what they do."

"Had a P2K and P2/Orch, then used the free Proteus VX plugin until I went over to Mac, then just bought DSF. "

"Flipping through the voices on his Emu Proteus/2 orchestral synthesizer, he tried various instruments... then he stumbled on one of the higher-numbered voices, a patch called "Whistling Joe." It seemed silly at first, but the more he played a simple six-note melody with it, the more he liked it." - from a Vice / Radio Motherboard interview with Mark Snow about how the X-Files theme was created.

Marty O'Donnell began to show a video of his studio that he and Mike own in the 1992, this showcase synths and gear he own at the time. This is during a interview he had with Michael Salvatori, highlight from 1:14:37 to 1:16:58.

Following Synths shown are: Emu Proteus 1, 2, 3, Yamaha DX7.

Kenji Kawai is confirmed to use two E-Mu Proteus 2 Orchestral modules, as listed on his official website under the profile section.
