Prochannel Emulation = Roland COSM modeling?

"COSM: Composite Object Sound Modeling Once a musical instrument generates sound vibrations, it reaches the human ear through various mediating, objects, each of which significantly affects the sound. The material and configuration of the instrument, the electric/magnetic amplifying system, the air and the reverberation of the room all affect the final sound. Sound modeling, the latest DSP technology, "virtually" reconstructs these objects. Roland's breakthrough Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) uses the advantages of multiple modeling methods and succeeds in accurately emulating existing sounds, as well as producing sounds that have never before been created."

Maybe... probably just the same old DSP that has been used on compressors and EQs for years.

Cakewalk has been asked repeatedly to provide details and the official answer is "I think it sounds real good."

Cakewalk has been asked to brag about what ever they did that makes Pro Channel special and the official answer is "I think it sounds real good."

If it used Composite Object Modeling to emulate the make believe hardware it seems like the word COSM would be all over it.
