Resampling! The ES-1 only lets you use one effect at a time, BUT! like most other limitations on the Electribes, there's a workaround—in this case one of the most powerful and useful features of the Electribe series, which is resampling—i.e., creating a .WAV of whatever sound the ES-1 is making at t ...

Try the Open Electribe Editor — an invaluable tool for the ESX.

Also, beware of g ...

That said . . . before you go and take the entire deck apart, try only pulling the rotary encoder knob off and spraying some circuit board/contact cleaner in there to knock some of the dust off. (You'll have to remove that knob anyway to ...
