Hi all!
the es1 is a small "sampler" sequencer well turn to live tekno. sampler in quotes because for me it is not a conventional sampler. it is especially being able to bring its sounds via the pc (frequency of 32kHz or loss ds sound sample. the sampler has 95 sec (WAVE or AIFF) in tt samples, all fairly short ds especially kan we love voice samples. For my part, I prfrer tt sounds clear origin for mine tt safeguarding the original sounds ds pc (the sounds are average)
8sons jou simultaneous slice (cutting sequence in a step by step) + 1 audio in between (the microphone with cool effects)
at noon, no prob, in, out, thru
for indeed, it has 11 effects Intgr. the prob is the effect s'applike ke tt sounds or has been in effect asking +. some galre kan is a disto vex put on a low and a flanger on a tablecloth, for example.
an option above, the motion sequence (time and effect), ki can record a change of time or effect tps rel.
the general motion sequence is different, it can change the pitch, pan, reverse, etc. .. on each step individually. This allows you to make ki Młoda or gallop. it can be disabled on a button and the sound becomes linear. there are two types of motion, with frequency "or pike rounded" Nikel to groundwater or kick.
This ki Mank, it is the output spar ki will put an effect on the Chake, but hey!
ke the simple bcp + rm1 or 505, a toy koi!

UTILIZATION

Operation is super simple and intuitive. in fact for me is more a toy k'autre thing.
we really can do what you want and as you want thanks to the step sequencer.
the sequencer is adjustable "or 16pas/32/48/64pas 32/64/96/128 (in fact his show 2 * + faster, a little weirdo) or by the same 12 steps.
to fit the sounds, a pc is mandatory and a sound processing software (SoundForge, WaveLab, etc.) for the frequency change of the sample (standart 44khz, 32 khz on the es1). K'1 and smart media (just a little) and a smart media player (with usb 300/400frs)
the manual is simple but enough to galre tt understand surtt the motion sequence

SOUNDS

For sound, it means +. jm'explike, sounds lost in DynaMike bcp because of a change in frequency, but by choosing out these samples is + a problem too.
for effect, not bad, it adds a good toy tt + a ca. EFET is the control by 3 knobs, one to select the effect, one to set the power of the effect and another one to play with.
Filter kan has it, is the most bogus, impossible to play with a cut off.
I find the sound kan even a little flat, but for my part I have an equa parametrike ki allows me to play well in the + sound and the sound of AC prevents stagnant at times, but it gives a surtt could ... Dynamik.

OVERALL OPINION

This is my 3rd bar, I have a mc303, and a 1es1 er1 since. I have for about 5 months but I am Always it. She'll nikel with er1 ki ddi is to be with and the ke ea1 but good.
for me it's like a little toy world devoted to live tekno (nikel to chug!)
I teuffeur since 4 years and we set for 1 year and there's one month before I tap a live 500pers! and ct dla bomb!
BAR turn to a chug is the simplest and has a super performance.
I got a 330euros with smart media and a diskette for PC reader / writer smart.
in résumé if you're young, love you chug sound, love you kand is simple and direct, and love you PETE kand ca. You need the ba ES1
