EMX1 not working - display lit after reassembly

Hello all I've spent ages trying to resolve this issue, including forum searches but am stuck... I recoated a mate's EMX1 pad contacts but on reassembly I was testing the thing at every step (it worked well but I wanted to make sure it stayed that way so I didn't have to unscrew dozens of screws ...

you can also use an iPhone or iPad with the MIDI Bridge app (or the Midiflow app) and lightining to USB adaptor (as I do) or one of the other app the can act as a USB Host. I also use a battery powered USB Hub when I need to connect multiple MIDI devices. Hello Telengard, just a question about the ...

Ambient House? I did this Orb cover trying to learn the EMX 2, and it's a long, slow process... Lots of non-intuitive functions you have to just learn. I enjoyed building sounds and rhythms to match what I remembered, and am still exploring with my own stuff. It's a really great way of learning to ...

Alright dude It was pretty simple, tracing exactly where the current flowed and scratching a tiny area of green off the board until it showed copper. I planned where these points were going to be carefully as I needed the wires to lie flat and not have excess wire floating about yet keep the ...

I use an UNO MIDI interface with the iPad 2, mainly to transfer arps to the EMX2. Works in a NON-POWERED old USB 2.0 hub with Edirol UA-5 soundcard, which has coaxial digital in/out, which I use with my desk. Have used iPad 2 as FX unit too with NO LOSS of sound as it's all via the CCK dongle... I ...

Indeed, this looks promising! On first impression, I want to get loop start points to zero from the default at the end of the sample, so it's a long wait pressing arrow-down as the numbers scroll slowly... could you perhaps put a bar between arrows for fast scrollling, or input by typing numbers ...

I found a secondhand DJ Hero Renegade set for £3 GBP in a charity shop. They go for about £20 on eBay. With a bit of tweaking it fits my EMX2 & SP-404SX quite well.. The legs are heavy so I'm going to adapt the base layer where they fit for leads & smaller gadgets. Might even mount external jack s ...

Hacked EMX 2 sample mute question

Hello! Firstly, I've had the EMX 2 for a good while now and have performed freeform ambient sets with SP-404SX for samples (best memory but sequencer terrible) plus iPad & KP Mini 2 for mainly transitional soundscapes and portability (rucksack only!). I've been monitoring the hack situation and ...

Thanks crazytiti! I managed to trace the breaks in the circuit board and resolder wires across it. It was still jumping when I first put it back together so I opened it again and resoldered and it's now running well :D

The Orb

Hello all - just in case you missed my video doing an Orb cover; Outlands from their first (1991) album. In order to get used to the E2 I decided to try and reproduce some music I already love, and this manifested. Used a KO-2 for bleepy stuff and ES-1 for original sample triggering (ESX2 to come ...

YouTube video doing Outlands by the Orb on the EMX2 & ES

I did this to show what I've been up to on the EMX2. Used an ES-1 for sample triggering but nearly used a tablet with MPC or might get ESX2 if I win the lottery... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR_ITT30Vac&spfreload=10 It's the Orb's 'Outlands' which I wanted to reproduce to get to know the E2 a ...

Hello all. Just got an EMX2 a couple of days ago. Have been in a trance ever since! Some great stuff here and I've printed out the shortcut sheet and written all over it with notes from this forum to help me learn fast... might even do a massive dense A4 crib sheet if anyone's up for it... Anyway ...

Hello - no, it works fine in sample mode, so it's not the physical dial. I think it's hardware related but can't find a service manual to trace the circuitry. Really annoying. It actually flickers fast and sometimes stays on A.01 or B.33 so it's probably a loose connection / short which will be hard ...

Electribe ES-1 S sampler going crazy! Random patterns...

Hello everyone - I wonder if someone can help with my ES-1 problem. It's just started jumping randomly from pattern to pattern. Mostly stops on A.01 or B.33 but changes maybe 5 times a second although sometimes it seems fine for a couple of minutes. I know it's probably dodgy hardware, and I've ...
