Electribe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Electribe is the name given to a group of electronic musical instruments by Korg that essentially resemble the Roland TR-808 and TR-909 in appearance and in function. From its beginnings with the Electribe R to the ESX-1, this series includes both analogue modelling synthesizers and sampling drum machines that can be programmed the same as a drum machine. Both the analogue modeling synth and sampling drum machine both share a drum-pattern section and a synth-pattern section, whereby the user can not only program drum patterns, but also synth and basslines. These hybrid machines could be considered 'grooveboxes'.
