"Very cool sounding Ensoniq ESQ-1 for sale. This is a hybrid synth with digital oscillators and analog filters. Recently serviced and checked out. Has a new RAM backup battery and holder. During servicing the synth was cleaned and vacuumed inside and out. One cracked key was replaced. I have worked on a few of these, and this is the cleanest one I have seen! Original Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) is bright and highly readable. All keys and buttons works properly. Sounds thick and plays great! Includes ROM cartridge (missing label)."

Matt Barber - Welcome Back! Live DAWless Synth Jam - Oberheim OB-8, Jupiter 6, Juno 6, ESQ1, DW-8000

video upload by Matt Barber - Sounds from The Sandbox

"As I get things back together in the studio and try some different layouts here is a quick live jam of a little funky riff I was playing around with. I ended up playing a similar lead part on the Oberheim OB-8, then the Roland Jupiter 6, and then the Roland VK-7 combo organ over a bass line I forgot to lay down towards the beginning. Kinda fun and chill, definitely some retro 80's sounds....enjoy!

Other gear used.
Drums: Oberhiem DX Stretch, Roland TR-8S, Korg DDD-1
Arps: Korg PolySix, Roland Jupiter 4, Access Virus TI
Plucks and Bell like tones: Ensoniq ESQ-1, Korg DW-8000, Roland Juno 6, Sequential Prophet Rev 2

ESQ-1 Let's Patch! | Live Sound Design Session | Vintage Hybrid Synth (1986) | Process Walkthrough

video upload by Dr. Synthy Pants

"Thanks to channel supporter ⁨@AlisonWilder⁩ for suggesting this real-time sound design session format for ye ol' gear tubes!

Vintage synths are magical for many reasons... not least is that they were designed with strict hardware limitations that forced the makers to invent clever solutions to difficult problems while keeping costs LOW!

(come to think of it, this may not be unique to vintage synths... I digress.) ::ahem:: Designing through those solutions is kinda like uncovering a time capsule of brilliant thinking and interesting sonic possibilities.

Maybe it IS true! Are we really only limited by our imaginations? Let's find out with Dr. Synthy Pants!"

Programming is similar to the ASM Hydrasynth.

These are CRAZY! ALL of the hidden waveforms on the Ensoniq ESQ-1

video upload by CGMAGIK

"I got the EPROM for the ESQ-1 that enables you to access the hidden waveforms 33-255. A small handful of them are pretty normal sounding, but the majority are really quite amazingly insane. It's like a broken ATARI 2600 or something. It gives the Ensoniq a strange 8-bit game console sampler kind of vibe. I'm looking forward to making some interesting and unique patches using some of these.

Watch at your own risk. Haha. It's an epic journey through some not very chill and friendly sounds."
