VFX or SD-1? The latter can easily do everything the former could do, and more. I view the VFX, VFX-SD, and SD-1 as essentially the same synth, but with additional features.
Fizmo would be great, too, but not sure it's as effective as its mystique. I'd still want one.

SD-1 of course would be fine. I always think in terms of the VFX and ESQ-1 as we had those, but obviously the SD-1 and SQ-80 are better overall choices

I would also love to have a Fizmo. The closest thing to a Fizmo we have right now is this:

The thing about the Fizmo is that a huge part of the sound is the built in effects processor, so to do it right, you'll have to nail that, and I don't think that's trivial at all. UVI does a sample based Fizmo instrument and without those effects, it's pretty uninteresting.Neon Breath wrote: Wed Jun 17, 2026 4:16 pmthe Ensoniq FizmoIvyBirds wrote: Wed Jun 17, 2026 3:48 pm

I also really like to support plugin versions of 1980s and 1990s Synths that are unapologetically and unashamedly digital in nature![]()
Man I'm 100% with you on this! Those weird quirky digial synths from the 90's have alot of cool hidden and forgotten gems.

Sure but those were based on the Ensoniq DP/4 which has already been made into a plugin, Ensoniq even included their custom 24-bit VLSI the ESP-2 in the Fizmo to run it. The ESP-2 was a 24-bit fixed-point DSP chip, so creating an emulator for that or translating it's code to run in C++ is very doable, especially if you could license it from Creative.zerocrossing wrote: Fri Jun 19, 2026 3:30 pmThe thing about the Fizmo is that a huge part of the sound is the built in effects processor, so to do it right, you'll have to nail that, and I don't think that's trivial at all.
