I have an Ensoniq FIZMO, an absolutely inspiring and brilliant sounding synth. But EMU, who swallowed Ensoniq, unfortunately do not support this machine in a satisfying way. And the Originals become rare as the used Hunday-chips are not the best, they go to nirvana one by one...

Can the FIZMO-Transwave synthesis and its amazing high-end FX-unit be programmed to run on Pulsar? Even if this would use 5 DSP alone for this machine, I believe it might be worth it.

it is a very specialised synth. do you have a diagram of the architecture?

I would get one if i could they are cool.

I´ll try. What makes me think is the fact that Fizmo has 48 voices and really good reverb, this might be a problem for Pulsar, I guess.

As soon as 3.0 Pulsar is released I will make
the PT-FREE-96K algo available to the other Scope DP users ...
it's 50% of a sharc and sounds GREAT!!!

then atleast all the synth guys can add verb into the design if they wish.

It's my fault, I'm too busy helping people who haven't read V3 manual to have time to put it up on Paul's site. Sorry, you'll have to wait.

Ok, I got a little piece of information that seemingly makes it impossible (at this point of time) to program such synths... 4MB Wavetable! Is there anyone capable of programming a device that can (more or less) directly use the System RAM for this purpose? Maybe there´s a way to transfer the Wavetable technology from the Vectron or so?
