While looking after spare parts for an old Ensoniq VFX I found this

. A "light" version of a forthcoming SQ80 like VSTi.

Nice. Just as my ESQ-1 is lost its memory, too.

just to clarify:

it comes with an installer who usually should set this path correctly - in case it fails though the readme explains how to set it manually - no big deal

Thanks for posting this interesting find!

Here are some patches in sysex format, you have to select the SQ80 in the selection box.

esq-1/sq-80 is one of my all time fav synths. But its the overloading of the 3 osc into the analog circuit path and the filter that give it it's sound.

I'd be amazed if this plug has the dirty niceness of the esq-1. I'll check it out later.

Holy crap! The SQ-80 remains my main synth. I'm gonna have to try this out...

Nifty... thanks for the heads up. Still a huge fan of the ESQ-1 as well.

Nice one, but it's crackling all the time - does anyone experience this as well? Maybe it's just my pc.
