"Unit has MIDi I/O on mounted Dinsync jacks, (see pics), a total of (3) additional outputs for the Drums (Kick, Snare, HH) so all sounds can be recorded on individual tracks, nice! Also the Drums have the Tone and Decay mods, which is what makes it sound similar to an 808. Two pots control the decay of the Bass and Snare, and two switches for HH and Snare Noise/Decay. PAste this phrase into youtube: MONOMOD - Korg Monotribe Mod / Hack [posted here] to watch a video demonstarting the mods/sounds. (this is not my video, but the mod/sound is the same). Below I have posted some info on the MIdi Mod taken from Gameboy Genius' Blog [link].
Sync: It will both send and accept MIDI sync, start and stop messages, meaning the sequencer can be reset over MIDI, which can’t be done remotely if you’re only using the regular sync input.
Name Note number Note name GM drum name
BD 36 C1 Bass drum 1
SN 40 E1 Snare dum 2/Electric snare
HH 42 F#1 Closed hi-hat
Control change messages (CC): It can send and receive CC for all the knobs and switches marked green above. The parameters are mapped as follows:
