That synthesizer is called a fairlight CMI. It was the very first sampling 
computer music system. Asfar as vintage synths  for ProTools, I don't really 
know because most of that work I end up doing in reaper anyway. There are way 
more VST and Au  plug-ins freely available than AAX. This is  a licensing issue 
with Avid. It actually costs money for companies to make plug-ins compatible 
with a a X. Therefore, a lot of these really small companies don't make  free 
or low-cost plug-ins for ProTools  which are actually quite good. A prime 
example is the line of GSI plug-ins that emulate be three, roads, and a clan. 
Those are the best I've ever heard, but I can't get them in ProTools.    The 
minute  avid allows VST and Au plugs in ProTools, then the plug-in market would 
open up.
