Ensoniq SQ80 / ESQ1 by andyv

1233 downloads
Ensoniq
An awesome first layout for the classic Ensoniq SQ80 (and the ESQ1, too) by first-time layout author AndyV. Gold! The SQ80 is a vintage synth first released in 1987 (it has a floppy disk drive in it!) and was the first keyboard ever to feature Ensoniq's "Polypressure Keyboard." This produces channel and poly aftertouch, and the SQ80 has MIDI out so you could control something else with it. But I digress: this layout is about controlling the SQ80, and it's dense and complete. Enjoy, redesign, share!

Performance Editor for Yamaha Reface DX by ibo-kai

2296 downloads
Yamaha
Rainer Award Winner Ibo Kai decided to make a PERFORMANCE layout for the Yamaha Reface DX, and we're ecstatic to have it! All of his layouts are beautiful and well-conceived. This is a one-page layout but it packs a lot of punch. As the author says it: "While I think [Yamaha] created a great UI for programming FM voices, which is lightyears ahead of the old DX synths, plus you can play a loop and change a couple of parameters on the fly, I found I wanted some even more direct access to live-tweaking several things in parallel."

"This layout is pretty simple, just one page shows all the available functions. It is mainly what you find in the 'FM' keypad of the synth: frequencies, levels and feedback settings separately per operator plus the algorithm select."

So this gives you a new way to work with your Reface DX. Exciting stuff, enjoy!

Yamaha AN200 one knob per function editor with full implementation of all SYSEX functions of the synth including modulation matrix. This completely unlocks the synth portion of the AN200 which is an incredible VA synthesizer. Should also work with PLG-100AN and AN1X, although a few functions on the AN200 are not present on the AN1X.

SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS SIX-TRAK by ezb

1050 downloads
Sequential Circuits
The Six-Trak came out in 1984, and it's the older, cheaper brother of the Prophet 5, darling of 1970's rock. The Six-Trak is a fully analog synth, one of the first multi-timbral synthesizers and MIDI. But its coolest feature is an on-board six-track digital sequencer, which is why it's called Six-Trak.

EZB -- one of the most prolific MIDI Designer layout authors -- made this wonderful little layout for the Six-Trak sight unseen! This is an amazing feat. If you have a Six-Trak please let the author know how it goes (reports so far are very positive). Enjoy!
