The Ensoniq ESQ-1 is a special keyboard at UVI. Used by many on our team, including being a personal favorite of one of our founders, our USQ-1 had to be great. We’ve leveraged years of experience with this synth and put our hearts into creating a collection of sounds that we're proud of and that we’re sure you’ll enjoy.

Released in 1986, the Ensoniq ESQ-1 was one of the first affordably priced workstation-class keyboards on the market, combining an 8-voice, multitimbral digital/analog hybrid synthesizer and a featured 8-track sequencer. The ESQ-1's voice architecture allows customization of up to 3 digital oscillators, assignable to any one of 32 waveshapes, followed by a Curtis 4-pole 24dB/oct resonant low-pass analog filter and 15 routable modulation sources. The sound quality of the ESQ-1 is all-at-once digital, warm and unmistakably '80s - a true gem of the time whose sounds still ring with a brilliant depth and character.

One of the most prolific figures in synthesizer history is the maverick engineer and designer Tom Oberheim. His efforts can be heard across hundreds of albums, decades of pioneering instrument designs, and experienced through conveniences we take for granted on a daily basis including preset memory and MIDI. His influence is as great as any and his designs have stood the test of time better than most, with models in production today that have changed little in over 40 years. The sound of his instruments is distinct and inherently musical, with a character that's often described as "lush" and "massive", and rightly so.

One of the first keyboards, I ever owned. To this day, no other keyboard has as much character as the SY85. We've included all of the waveforms, including drum kits; and because it's all sample based, you will have no problem recreating your favorite patches from this library. One of our main goals was to capture the analog warmth of the actual hardware and we can say we achieved that with excellence. You will be amazing how warm and fat this synth sounds.

Explore the possibilities of FM synthesis from vintage digital to visionary hybrid tones. Made popular in the '80s, FM synthesis continues to inspire artists and sound designers with it's rich harmonic sounds and other-worldly timbres. Utilized within the modular architecture of Falcon, Digital Motion delivers a focused set of hyper-detailed and expressive FM patches offering vivid, evolving and highly-musical visions.
