Korg Electribe EA-1 cleanup and disassembly

YouTube via Mamiya645 inside a KORG EA-1
"Warning: Might be loud :)

Photos from November 2008, cleaned up the EA-1 before I auctioned it off (I was really in need of money, hate that I had to let it go). Made the tune myself on an EA-1 with no added effects or anything, what a fun machine to play with. Hope to get one again, or an ER-1, or maybe several members of the great Electribe family. The interface, the soft sweet buttons, oh sweet goodness.

Taking it apart and cleaning it is a simple straightforward process, but if you're not sure what to do or want some tips, comment and I'll help you out the best I can from my memory."

"this synth seems to do a thing where it will play up to four notes with one oscillator each, or if you only play one note it'll assign all the oscillators to it (or two OSCs each for two notes, etc.)."

I don't think this is the case. Anyone confirm this either way?

YouTube via icegearnet. This will run on the iPad as well.
"ARGON, virtual monophonic synthesizer for iPhone. For more information, visit our site. http://iphone.icegear.net/a..."
on iTunes:

Update:

"Updated version(1.1.0) of the ARGON (iPhone 2G/3G/3GS and iPod touch; $1.99)
is now available at Appstore [link above].

ARGON helps you to create new sounds by using the included
three Oscillators, a filter, an amplifier, a saturator
and a delay.
Also 64 factory presets and 512 user presets are included.

The Oscillators have various waveforms and FM and AM,
oscillator sync and oscillator modulation.

Filters have four lowpass (24dB, 18dB, 12dB, 6dB),
band-pass filter, highpass filter, and envelope/LFO.

The Amp offers overdrive (saturator), 3-band EQ, panpot and envelope.

The Delay Effect offers L/R delay.
It also includes Tempo Sync, an LFO and a spread parameter.

In particular, you can make your own pattern with Step-Sequencer.
And you can also make sound like human voice with Formant Oscillator.

Loop Recorder is newly added feature to 1.1.0 update. You're able to overdub
on the recorded loop while playing it and export the piece you made to
your computer as .wav file.

Here are some details about how the application works:
