| Armando Chrystal 13.12.2012 | any other opinions on what would be better for me? user experience why you like one over the other? Do mostly like a deep tech-house kinda sound |

Im just looking for a nice drum machine on a budget to spark some creativity if it has basses and synths I wouldnt mind either so you would recommend the EMX for me correct? @muffintop why do you wish you would have gotten the ESX? |

| Leota Dolney 29.09.2012 | Get the EMX-1...it will give you more versatility. Even, better, get the EMX-1SD and get the ability to load/store onto an SD card. |
