4 Tribes
YouTube via rudeog
"Every now and then I like to take these old folks out for some time in the sun. The samples on the ES are a 909 kit. Since I was holding the camera I didn't really do much tweaking except vol. level. But at least it shows these four old men doing their jobs. These are the original 4 plastic Electribes released by Korg before they started using the metal tops. It's fun to go back to the newer models after playing with these and their limitations. The biggest of these is the single effect that can be in play at any one time and the fact that you can't selectively send each sound to the delay bus. Still, you have to try to make the most of the tool you are using. And it's fun to imagine yourself in a time when these guys would have been "cutting edge"."

I LOVED these old tribes. I had 3: the analog, rhythm, and sampler (not the M). The limitations are strengths to me.
