Re: Ensoniq SQ80 or ESQ-1
I looked into the ESQ-1 a few years ago ( couldn't even find one anywhere in the UK ) and saw the specs of that and the SQ 80. I think the most notable differences were that the latter had polyphonic aftertouch a disk drive and more waveforms. I think the engine must be pretty much the same but don't hold me to that. I know the SQ 80 can do all the patches on the ESQ-1 though.
[edit] Just had a look on Vintage Synth Explorer, I reckon the sequencer is enhanced as well.
You buying one?

I have the esq1.
It's a really good synth. I have used it loads.
Everything apart from the drums were made using the esq1
