Hi, the Apple IIGS does not have a wavetable ROM.
All waveforms for the Ensoniq are loaded from disk.
Apple provides several wavebanks with synthLAB
and users have created several more.  These are
loaded into DOC RAM at the same time the music
sequences are loaded.

If you would like to import these waveforms into your
samplers, just download the synthLAB disk of IIGS
System 6.0.1 and transfer the wavebank files.
