    A marvelous piece of art

    Ensoniq SD1Published on 07/02/14 at 11:55
    What can I say for a synth that stood up to me for 20 years? Everybody knows the SD1. I am writing here just to pay respect to this instrument.

    SOUNDS

    Just great

    OVERALL OPINION

    I will keep it in my studio for a basic synth.

    A different sound

    21 polyphony, but just a little at the time very well. 180 sounds divided into 3 banks combis + 60, with an extension to memory card drive. 1 multi stereo effects. Keyboard very good quality.

    Configuration and edition are machinery Ensoniq 90s, ie confusing for Japanese used synths but very logical for others ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I would put the SD1 really apart from other digital synths, it's really special to any point of view, because of its tone color, ergonomics, design, keyboard short, for me it is a single machine and is rare ... It is also very robust and reliable.
