1. The EXS parameters are not as deep a level as the parameters in the 
Ensoniq. In other words, the filter envelopes, the LFO parameters, and 
others, are on the Instrument level in EXS, whereas on the Ensoniq, you can 
set these aprameters for every wave, if desired.

2. The Ensoniq usually adds some of it's built-in effects on some sounds, 
and of course these don't carry over.

3. Ensoniq sounds are usually well programmed and have deep usability. It's 
not easy to get this all across.

4. Ensoniq envelopes are 5 stage; the EXS only has ADSR's.

Other than that, they work quite well.
