don't buy some all in one step shit. buy a tune synth, drum synth, sampler, you'll mire flexible and can make so many things, take a look at this one....the best drummachine i've ever used -> http://www.synthony.com/Products/dr770.html |

a synth with everything in it is not as fun as seperate equipment. i have an mc303 and it's not one of my favorite pieces, but i dont have too much equipment right now, so i have to use it. i'm going to try to limit it to bass lines and a few short notes really. anyways, for the price that you'd spend on one of those things, you could get a keyboard, drum machine, and some effects. |

I have a Korg ES-1, the sampling rhythm machine, just got it a while ago. It's pretty ok, I guess. I haven't used it for any tracks yet, I basically just use it to tinker and create beats with it, as the interface is really really nice. The effects are kind of cheesy, not as warm as I'd like. I guess with the ER-1 though you're stuck with the preset sounds, so that's what you've got to deal with. With the ES-1 you can load up samples and use them, so it's a lot more flexible. |

Tried it a bit, got a free one and didn't like it to much, great for sampling though, just toss it into the computer and play with the wav files to get a desired sound. for the most part, its good for a while, but you need some external effects to get it sounding warm. to metalic for me, thats why i sampled it and processed it through my plugins |

Yeah, and it uses the weird ass 32khz sampling. I was going nuts for a while also, trying to save 32khz samples, when I realized that Soundforge fuckin' saves them as 24 bit by default and the ES-1 only reads 8/16 bit .WAV's Pretty lame, but once you get it, its not so bad. The ring mod is particularly bad on the ES-1 imo. Much different than the ring mod i've played with elsewhere. After typing that last email, I've started considering sending it back, heh. You can also warm up the effects quite a bit by resampling at various stages, and then re-running them through the compressor/isolator/resonance |
