Besides, one would hardly call the Ensoniq a clone. Ensoniq is a
leading manufacturer of professional MIDI synthesizers, and their
entree into the world of PC sound cards raises the level of what one
should expect from a mid-priced sound card. 

Calling the Ensoniq a clone of a Sound Blaster is like calling Godiva
chocolates a clone of Hershey's kisses.
