I cant tell the difference tbh, well there was some but I just imagine its the difference in there not being a speed knob for the ES2. I bought the ES3 a few days ago and I love playing around with the slider and oscilation. It sounds super weird with heavy modulation havent made peace with the chorusing yet, but I think its quite unique. I like the analog delay, not so much the digital but I bought it for the analog, I prefer warm repeats for sure
The ES2 sounds more compressed then the ES3. Timbre wise the ES3 has maybe a more open top-end. But al in al, they are very close to each other. EDIT/adition: Had a close listen with headphones. The ES2 is definitely a bit darker, degenerate repeats are more "lo-fi", bit more duller sound. The ES3 is more rich, has more sparkle, chimes more. And upon reading on it features: The ES3 line/guitar level switch(for if you want to use keyboard), the ES2 does not have this. ES3 has 600ms of analog delay, while the ES2 has 1000ms. I think the ES3 is good succesor on the ES2, seems more practical and improved. Although i would love longer analog delay time, but then the sound would problably be duller and not as sprakle-y as it is now. It's the natures of BBD-chips.
@@delaydude interesting. I was under the impression that the ES-2 used bbd chips, so I had assumed the ES-3 did as well, but I had never noticed the ES-3 had the digital, until I watched this vid. This is why I asked, because I have not seen a pedal that houses actual bbd and digital together. The DE-7 is digital and has the "echo" mode, and plenty of "analog voiced" pt2339 pedals out there and then all of the algorithm pedals that have an "analog" algorithm, but never a bbd chipset next to a digital, so with BBDs being what they are these days I thought, well maybe they decided to go a different direction with the ES-3. It almost seems like they would have to be complete different circuits inside to accomplish this, with different filtering and things to consider.
Surprised they updated it so fast. Cool that they did.

They sound amazing, the trail goes a little brighter like an old tape delay.
Wooooow that modulation is special!
Would be cool to see this up against the rubberneck and or a dmm

Could i use it for DJing with a Stereo-Klinke, even if there is just one port?
Which do you prefer? These seem really really nice to me, great sound
Do either or both of these use actual BBDs, or are they something else emulating analog?
