Скачать или смотреть [MIDI Comparison Project] Ensoniq AudioPCI

This is the Ensoniq AudioPCI, Ensoniq's cheap yet pretty good little sound card. This particular one was an ES1373 on the motherboard of a Gateway G6-450 computer. This was the very first MIDI synth I ever heard! I still think the clarity and crispness of its samples is unmatched. Recorded in Windows 98SE and uses the standard 2MB .ecw sample set.

Make sure you set the player to 480p for the best audio quality! The recordings may sound scratchy otherwise.
