any thoughts, experience using any of the variations of the machine? i'm considering purchasing one. |

I have the R and A models (the older ones) The R is very nice, and will let you get some nice sounds. The A on the otherhand, is rather flat sounding. I heard the S is the best. |

i have an es-1 (the sampler one) it's alright. i don't really use it for sequencing, i do all that on a yamaha rx-11 and trigger the samples on the es-1. it has a fairly good amount of memory (if you buy the larger card) and it can fit quite a lot of songs and patterns into the one file it creates. the effects are decent, but only one can be applied at a time (to one or more samples) but supposedly you can resample them with the effect of your choice. i haven't really tried figuring that one out. 300 bucks i think it cost me. supposedly they are really great to use together if you have more than one of the electribes |

Yeah everything still stands about what I said the EM-1 in that thread. |

I highly recommend the ER-1 I have the other two first generation electribes and this one gets a lot of mileage whilst the others gather dust. Only my opinion tho, I think Ceri JC enjoys the EA1 quite a bit. |

I like the ER-1 best. A very good alternative to expensive real analog drum machines IMO and tops for use when DJing. The EA-1 is quite good (for a "toy" synth), but has a fairly limited range of sounds. It's good when used with other stuff (like the ER-1), but I haven't managed to do anything really good using just them. It's good for basslines and simple leads, but don't expect absynth/andromeda type evolving textures from it. The rhythm on both is really tight. Very, very good. |

ER-1 : very nice device, especially for live gigs, been using it without any problems, and it sounds alright. never tried any of the other models in the series. |

Ha ha, those boys have some snags, but that's a wicked video. Some pretty good sounds out of it to and they managed to use some restraint when doing that metallic delay trick everyone does with 'tribes. Nice stuff. Not you, perchance? |

i had the er1 and it was wicked! sold it to a mate who uses it with the ea1 and an mpc2000, makes proper catchy synthpop style tunes, no links tho, he aint online so can give u an example |

I use the er1, it's got a very simple but versatile synth engine that let's you take it way beyond standard rhythm sounds, the LFO modulation has got a hell of a lot of bite and some of the sounds you can get are akin to FM synthesis, especially if you use the ring mod feature and delays. the only problem I have with it is the bass is VERY heavy and can sometimes completely domininate your mix but that's nothing a bit of compression and mixing can't sort out. |

well, you can use the low boost to decrease the bass |
