I wasnt impressed with the contact rate of the pads when first using the es2 - I assumed it was because of being new. But nothing has changed over time - really have to hit to get the pads to register, which makes the velocity sensitivity basically a non-function.
is anybody actually gigging with this - and I mean a bit more than just slamming mute/unmute on the pads or running notes from another sequencer?

A youtube video i meant (comparison/review), cus ur videos are really interesting to watch.I Learned alot from you.alex921 wrote:Perhaps you can do a comparison about the 2 devices since you have both in your possesion right now?sauce wrote:I own both machines and I am working on a perfect system that uses both units in conjunction. The new Electribe Sampler has a very nice sound; the ESX doesn't even compare. Nonetheless, the new units have limitations that are basically inexcusable.. 4-bars, no pattern chaining, etc. To make a long story short..
Save your coins. Don't get rid of the ESX. Within a month I will have tutorials up, along with a working template, that will pull both machines into a *very* compelling, powerful duo that work together like like a single unit.
thanks
