no it isn't, I have both. Get the ESX.

you're right. i was thinking about the ES-1 MKII

there are a few more things on the ESX, but don't forget you can get the ES-1 for 100 euros

don't be fooled by those tubes. a tube needs much more voltage to be efficient than 9 volts

needs more voltage? pssh!

I'm no scientist but I hear sweet and crispy overdrive when I crank my esx tubes up!

how many volts does it take to power the many electo harmonix pedals that have tubes?

Noob question:

Can someone explain the benefits of having a piece of hardware like this, over using software that does similar things? Is it primarily for live use, for the tactile hands-on experience - or is there anything that this can do that cannot be created inside a computer? This question also stands for all hardware synths, mixers etc.

Thanks for your non-abusive answers from a lil' newby.

No there'e nothing unique about an esx that can't be done in a computer... yeah it's pretty much for the the tactile experience, I really hate drawing in notes, software holds so many more samples and is infinitely more powerful.

i love mine but I am willing to trade it for a _ x 16 monome :)
