someone just gave me a korg electribe ea-1 (mk1)- nice one! cheers mate!
its got a dicky master volume knob but im not too worried- ill get someone to solder it
ive downloaded the manual and had a quick read- seems quite capable
i was surprised to find that its not velocity sensetive but ill probably only use it by itself anyway (not triggering it by midi)
i wonder if i could synthesise drum sounds- id like to try to do a whole live set with only this
anyone have any experience of these? whats it like for live performing? (pattern switching etc)

Nice, I just bought one but it needs some work. They sound great though. I think it is possible to make drum sounds on it.

I've got the sampler/sequencer Electribe. It's ok, but a bit clumsy. Not a patch on the good ol' Akais.

Congrats on the free synth!
I got a Realistic Concertmate MG1 for free a few months back. I debated selling it off, but now it looks like I may use it for an upcoming project.

Pattern switching is a piece of cake. seamless as it should be. You can even set up macros if you want to easily swtich from A12 to C43 without having to scroll all the way over to C43 in a limited amount of time.
The EA-1, unlike the ER-1, doesn't have the 1-shot downramp ADSR envelope I don't think.... which is ever so useful for drum sounds.
PS, learn to love the audio (gate) input. Its rad.

i have discovered a distaste for knobs
i want to set precise values and be sure ive tried every number
down with knobs!
up with increment!
up ...errrr ...down ... with decrement!
..decrement.... euurghh..... smelly
decrement is my new favourite word

using EA-1 while playing a pattern and setting it up as a slave to incoming MIDI data is the only fun thing to do with that device. And it is pretty fun. You'll get unexpected results.
