Great Little Box
Considering that the Korg Electribe EA-1 has only seven knobs dedicated to its synth engine and three more for its effects, this instrument can do quite a bit very easily. The built-in distortion enables one to create a decent distorted TB-303 acid sound. It isn't perfect, but it could hold its own in a mix. This isn't an analog synth - it's an early virtual analog simulation. But it's not bad. Some complain that it's a bit thin, but it just depends on the program. There are countless YouTube videos out there that show what this instrument can do. It can serve well as a drone synth or an ambient instrument as well as a techno or edm unit. It has two different voices each of which can be sent out a separate output. It also has an audio input so you can use it to filter and effect incoming audio.
Having said that, if you don't like its sound engine, the EA-1 can still be used to as a MIDI sequencer to control two other instruments simultaneously. Not only that, but you can create your sequences (up to 64-steps) either in realtime record mode or step record mode. And if you don't like using the built-in key pad, it accepts external MIDI input for live playing, realtime recording, and step recording.
Considering that you can find these for around $100 U.S., it's hard to find such a flexible piece of gear for the price. Enjoy!

Your CV/Gateway Into Modular
1 von 1 finden das hilfreich Forgive the pun. ;)
The System-1m maintains the majority of the features of the original System-1 (minus the keyboard, scatter effect, and arpeggiator) and adds a host of patch points. This instrument is essentially a simplified modular synthesizer. It has an LFO, two oscillators, a filter, an amp, and effects. This can be cross-modulated via 3.5mm TS patch cables. The instrument can also be interconnected with other eurorack modules. In fact, the System-1m can be mounted natively into a eurorack system. It can also mount into a standard 19" rack or be used as a tabletop synth as well. Like the System-1, it also has the ability to hold another synthesizer engine developed by Roland. I bought the SH-101 plug-out for mine and it sounds wonderful! Unlike most digital synths, the knobs on the System-1m are not limited to 256 MIDI steps (8-bit). I believe that they are roughly 32,000 steps (15-bit). This means that when you push the resonance and turn the filter cut-off, you don't hear the zippering or stair-stepping effect that you get from most digital or digitally-controlled filters. It sounds smooth like an analog instrument should.
Be aware that in its standard mode, the System-1m has a maximum of 4-note polyphony. However, if you want to use a plug-out synth, it will limit itself to a monophonic instrument. Also, if you want to use the patch points, you must put it in monophonic mode.
The lights are a bit bright and somewhat overwhelming, but the sound is remarkable. Be warned...if you haven't started to explore modular synthesis, this might tempt you to begin to add modules. Once that happens, good luck finding your way back from that rabbit hole. It's a flexible and powerful instrument and is well-suited as a learning instrument for those new to synthesis as well as being a powerful tool in the hands of an experienced user. There is much to learn and enjoy in this little black box.
