In January 1998, ENSONIQ Corp. was acquired by Creative Technology Ltd. for $77 million. The fusion with E-mu Systems and Creative Labs after a long 12 year hiatus Creative Labs USA announces the return for Ensoniq for 2011, with special team of designers and youth marketers, Ensoniq should generate a new fan base and hopefully titillate their loyal followers - stay tuned

Problem with that is, anyone can edit Wikipedia. If Ensoniq did ever come back though, they ain't gonna be the same if they still under Creative Labs. Gonna prob build some cheap BS.

yeah, comeon.. "Youth Marketers" Shouldn't that read "Musical Instrument designers"

Youth marketers means that they are going squarely at the biggest possible market, which we know is not true misucal users of gear. so they're going to design Bullshi t Ipod accessories and cheap ass controllers with new shapes and whip up some sickeningly cutting edge videos to stuff it down everyones throat. ugh


hoepfully not ..

that's the safeman's bet..............

computers and software are the future........sorry to burst any bubbles......... Hardware is becoming the antique muscle car equivalent for gear

It'll always have its niche following. And if there is a huge resurgence in interst (see vinyl production collecting in the late 90-now) then the market will respond. So until the noobs stop gobblin up the plethora of midi/usb controllers and their vst/au counterparts......controllers and software is what the market will continue to cater too..........
