Muse Research has announced a new Solid State Drive (SSD) option for the Receptor 2 Pro line of hardware plug-in players.
SSD dramatically increases the data throughput of the Receptor 2 Pro and Pro Max, for greater polyphony and lower latency, as well as increasing the device’s ruggedness, by replacing the traditional rotating hard drive with solid state drive technology with no moving parts.
