The Virtual Acoustic Guerrini Superior 2 is not a standalone product but part of a family. The developer, Virtual Acoustic, has continued to innovate in this space. Their newer model, for example, features a completely new and advanced VA2G engine. This engine boasts a natural tone mix achieved through a "total amount of air flow" algorithm and even allows for timbre morphing using dynamics expression. While the Presidentessa is a different take on a similar concept, the Superior 2 remains a benchmark for those specifically wanting the classic sound and full register complement of this particular instrument.
