🎶 ☠️ 🤍 Jeez. I've been doing this electronic music composition for awhile. ;-)

Note that MacPlus. That little computer opened up a world for me!

The keyboards are a Yamaha DX7, en Ensoniq-1, and a Roland Juno 106

Ensoniq ESQ-1 Digital Wave Synthesizer - Preset Demo - Repair Photos - No Talking

Preparing to film a deep dive patch design #walkthrough of the #Ensoniq #ESQ-1, a true hybrid from 1986 with a load of pleasant surprises...

A wildly flexible mod matrix, LOTS of real-time sound shaping inputs, and 32 cleverly designed and deliciously gritty 8-bit wavetables for each of the 3 oscillators.  

It's pure buttah.

In 1987 there was a (very) limited release of an arcade cabinet called "Moonquake," I have just discovered. Within, was a rather novel hardware arrangement.

This was internally an Amiga 500 with an Ensoniq 5503 DOC (the sound synth chip in the Apple IIgs and Mirage synthesizers) interfaced to it for audio. On the Apple IIgs, the DOC had one 64K sound bank. The chip supported two such banks, but the 5503 in Moonquake apparently had 512K of sound RAM -- each oscillator (or channel (sorta)) had its own 64K of RAM to pull from.

Thanks for the info on this, Ians Schmidt and Brumby from the Apple II slack.

This unique system is supported under MAME.
