Puremagnetik has released Esqone for Ableton Live, Kontakt and Logic. They say that Esqone brings the magic of the Ensoniq ESQ-1 to your desktop. A spokesperson told us, "With close to 1000 samples and over 1 GB of sounds, producers can enjoy one of the greatest synths of the '80s in Ableton Live, Kontakt and Logic."

Here's more details direct from Puremagnetik...

The ESQ-1 was released in 1986 and quickly became one of the most sought-after digital synthesizers of the decade. With digital waveforms and analog filters, the ESQ-1 used Ensoniq's own wavetable chip to generate its sound. This unique synthesizer has now been captured by Puremagnetik in a library of expertly programmed patches.

The Esqone Ableton Live Pack comes loaded with over 30 multi-sample instruments with expressive mappings, all programmed with pre-assigned, Push-Ready Macro controls.

Esqone for Kontakt was designed with a custom KSP easy edit interface. It has been developed with filters, effects controls and modulations.

Esqone for Logic includes a collection of instruments that install directly into your Logic library. All sounds have been pre-programmed with Logic's Smart Controls allowing instant access to sound sculpting and performance features.
