I love this machine. A whole eight bits and real analog filters.

On-Line Resources

If you are the proud owner of a Mirage you might be interested in the Mirage-Net mailing list. Take at look at the web page for details about joining the list and other Mirage links.

For more general Ensoniq information and resources check out this page. It's chocka full of links to all kinds of stuff.

Mirage Starters Guide

Thinking about buying a Mirage or just have ? This is the guide for you. I have given directions on loading, saving and sampling sounds plus what disks are what , net links and more. I have made it available as both a plain text file that can be printed out or the html version for online veiwing.

Gating Tutorial

The first in what should be a series of explanations and descriptions of handy tricks and techniques to get more out of your Mirage.

Create that gating effect without having to use volume controllers.

SOUND LIBRARY

I have created a new sound Library page for the Midifile format sound dumps These are fully automated midifile dumps. This page has taken over from the old sounds previously at the bottom of this page.

How to create MidiFile Dumps

Updated

Learn how to create standard midifiles containing Mirage Program and Sound data. All you need is a midi sequencer, a Mirage running MASOS and the provided MIdifiles that trigger the dumps. Take a look at My Further Adventures with System Exclusive.

Cubase Mixer Map

If you use Cubase and a Mirage then you must download this ! Truly useful. Thanks Enver !
Update - This is a new file as the last one apeared to do nasty things to Cubase.

Sonic Dreams

Here is a program for the Atari ST that allows you to edit the mirage's parameters from the computer . It requires MASOS to work. What makes it truly unique is the wavetable draw function. A window appears containing the default square wave. To draw a new wave simply move the points around. It is possible to create up to four synth waves per half of the mirage. Please note that the mirage must be configured first for this system to work. The documentation included in the archive file contains tables for setting the correct values for the parameters. Created by Daniel Skaborn.

Update!

I have now created a Midifile dump of the Template required to use the wavetable synth. It's included in the zip file with the program.
