Thanks technogremlin I'll be sure to check it out. The UI is not that sexy but also a very close emulation of the real thing: and some more info here (SQ80 users website): Get it here (look through the whole page, there's a lot of info): I had an ESQ-1 for almost 20 years, sold it when I got my hands on this plugin :) There are not many softsynths that sound this good without any FX switched on. When you listen to it keep in mind that it has no build-in FX. It can load native SQ80 and ESQ-1 patches and there is a lot of that floating around the web. It (very faithfully) emulates an Ensoniq SQ80 that had Curtis chips for the analog filter, famous for their use in the Oberheim OB8 and OBX synths. I almost forgot about it but it is one of the top free instruments right now. Peevy, it has been mentioned here between the lines (I searched the topic )) but don't forget to pick up SQ8L. Have you any idea how FL Studio Express Edition would measure up against these? I have been looking into getting a step sequencer/arpeggiator. Toxic's on sale at Audiomidi for $79 right now. The bundles are a bit expensive for me at the moment. IMHO, FL Studio's stepsequencer is hands down the absolute best in the industry. FL Studio can be hosted as a VST / VSTi or a ReWire client within Reaper. Sometimes they will bundle a few instruments and FL Studio together at a killer price. Before you buy toxic alone, take a look at the IL bundles.
