Korg Electribe ER-1 Drum Machine Rhythm Synth
via this auction
"It uses four tone generators from the excellent Korg Prophecy and Z1 synthesizers for its sound generation. It's like having four modeling synths in one unit, so you can create four completely different kinds of rhythm sounds and use them simultaneously for incredible tonal flexibility. It offers almost unlimited realtime control over every sound parameter allowing you to create truly unique sounds and beats. An incredible rhythm synth that truly allows you to create your own unique sound.
Features and Specifications at a Glance
* Program your own custom analog-style beat sounds by tweaking the ElecTribe R's knobs
* Tailor your own four percussion synthesizer parts, play in two audio inputs, or use the ElecTribe R's four PCM cymbal/hi-hat sounds
* Input two external audio sources and use the ElecTribe R's synth parameters to process the sound
* Input sequences into the ElecTribe R and hear your results in realtime as you play the steps
* Record Oscillator, amp or effect parameter knob movements in realtime using the "Motion sequence" function
* Store a total of 256 (64 x 4 banks) phrases or other patterns plus 16 songs consisting of multiple patterns, so all your beats are with you
* Sync the ElecTribe R to other MIDI devices using tap tempo or MIDI clock, or tap in the beat and sync to a turntable or other non-MIDI sound sources
* Comes with Low boost and delay effects
* Control the ElecTribe R from an external sequencer or keyboard and it becomes a MIDI expansion tone generator
* Simply by tweaking the knobs on the ElecTribe R, you have unlimited control over all the elements that make up the sounds - like pitch, modulation depth, waveform shape and much more. Drop these sounds into the built-in sequencer and you've got unique rhythms with your own creative signature. And with the ELECTRIBE R, you can hear every change you make as it happens, allowing you to mold the groove on the fly"

Korg EA-1 Analog Modeling Synthesizer
via this auction
"The original Electribe line packs a lot of power into an inexpensive power. The EA-1 is an analog modelling synthesizer that's designed for electronica. It is a two voice synth that lets you create and store patterns of up to 64 steps.
You can create 2-part sequences using the psuedo-keyboard, or play into the input using a MIDI keyboard while the EA-1 loops. Either way, it's easy to input new sequences.
Each voice has two oscillators, and these patch into a analog-modelled filter. There are several effects that can be applied, including Ring Modulation, Sync, and Decimator. The sound of the oscillators and filters don't have the bite and fullness of traditional analog synthesizers. However, they do have an intersting sound themselves.
If you compare the EA-1 to a traditional analog synthesizer, it will come up short. It doesn't have the same rich filters, LFO's, or the flexibility of patching that a vintage synth might have. However, it does have some unique features of its own.
You can record two sequences into each "pattern". The EA-1 stores 4 banks of 64 patterns, giving you a lot of space to work within. You can also apply what Korg calls "motion sequences" to sequences that you have recorded. Motion sequences are a way to record your real-time knob manipulation into a sequence. You can change the knob settings in real-time while a sequence loops, and it will be added to the sequence. The motion sequence can also be enabled, disabled, and rewritten independently of the sequence itself.
The EA-1 is not limited to playback of these sequences. You can also manipulate the sequences on the fly. For example, you can fade them in or out, modify the filter settings, change the tempo, or transpose them.
The EA-1 isn't a replacement for a juicy analog synth. However, the EA-1, like the other Electribes, is a fun synth to play with, and offers a lot of features for people interested in electronic and dance music."

Roland EG-101 Keyboard Synthesizer Sampler
via this auction
"It has a wealth of Roland-like sounds including everything from sub-bassess to 808 and 909 drum kit TB 303, SH 101 Like other Groove products the EG-101 has a DJ/Remix or RPS (real-time Phrase Sequencer) for quickly generating ready-made grooves and beats - good for live DJ use or as a starting point for writing your own tracks! Unfortunately you can't program your own phrases. But you can alter the sounds, tempo and so on to give them your own unique twists. Only the most important functions are immediately accessible and real-time controllable. These include the filter cutoff, resonance, ring modulator and reverb. A great new feature is an external sound input that can be routed through the filter and/or ring modulator. Borrowed from the MC-505 is the D-Beam for more control (or lack thereof)! As with other Groove products the EG-101 has a good sequencer / recorder implemented for creating your own arrangements. Only one song can be recorded at a time but it can be created in real-time by switching patterns and muting any of the eight tracks allowing you to build and decompose your grooves on the fly! And the built in speakers are actually quite nice allowing this synth a bit of portability A total memory of 16 samples can be created from any external sound source. There's a 7.81KHz sample rate (128 seconds at Lo-Fi quality) and 31.25KHz (32 seconds at Non Lo-Fi). Basic sample edit functions are also available such as pitch, time stretch, filters, effects, auto-looping and truncating. Although Specifications Polyphony - 24 voices Multitimbral - 11 parts Drums - 12 Drum Kits RPS phrases - 64 real-time Effects - Reverb, Ring Mod, Filter, Resonance, Cutoff Memory - 448 presets, Keyboard - 49 keys (velocity sensitive) Control - MIDI In/Out Date Produced - 1999 Est. Value - $800"
