--> 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)

it's nice cranking the delay feedback up to max, time to minimum and play with the tempo while having a guitar connected... some nice sounding drones

yeah its an awesome effects module... or at least the ER-1 is, and the EA-1 is somewhat similar.
Tempo-based slicing, anyway, is rad, esp if you then run it through a sequenced effects processor.

A little bit late I know, but I wanted to say that I like that hand drawn picture of the EA-1.
