I still have an eps 16 plus turbo in here somewhere so I must still have the manual too. what would you like me to look up that might be in the manual. I haven't had it on a stand from several years.
It was a great keyboard and I have a lot of stuff I used to play through it, on floppys.
I did very little sampling with it as I recall.
BEst regards,

Well, I was couriuos, as to how it compared to the Mirage. I had owned a Mirage DSK, but I did not like the split keyboard. I know a lot of people use pre made sounds, instead of creating their own. Still miss it.

It is ensoniq's crowning achievement, with more features and sample mangling modulation capabilities than can be easily mentioned.

It was a huge step up from the Mirage. The Mirage was only 8 bit sampling the EPS 16+ was 12 bit. So the sound was much more dynamic.
