Wow, this while 8bit emulation thing is getting as bad as the 303 emulations. They just don't stop.
ReplyDeleteactually 8-bit punctuations are a pretty pleasing addition to an acid track.
ReplyDelete8-bit gear preference is wierd. i had an ensoniq asr-10 in 91-92. wasn't that made by the same guy as the sid chip? you would think people would want to track those down. it was a full-on chip synth with tons of routable parameters and lfos with an honestly good 8 track sequencer.
can't say for sure though everyone had an nes then and i never considered it in that context.
Yep, Robert 'Bob' Yannes has co-founded Ensoniq !
