Yep, with the exception of the EMX and ESX.

My boy uses an esx/mpc 2k xl and he loves his esx!!
Honestly,I really love this little box as It's so simple to use and like someone else said,it provides an endless supply of drums to feed the sp 8)

If I ever get mine, I'll never sell it either. But it seems like you gotta go on eBay just to find one these days. (I don't trust Craigslist) I have the others, and I'm keeping em'. :mrgreen:

anyone remember the james bernard videos that came out when the ea-1, er-1, es-1, and kaoss pad 1 came out? that was the first time that korg had demo vids like that...it made a huge impression on me. I'd still like to try linking the three together one day to see what they can do...

I got one a year or so ago from a guy in Austin off of craigslist. I was in a hurry to actually get to Austin and hang out so i didn't really check it out. Paid the guy the full amount he jumped in his car and drove off. Technically/electronically there is nothing wrong with it it's just in "rough around the edges" shape. I take good care of my stuff and the ER1 MK2 just kinda sits there because it bums me out. I use it from time to time but enough for what i paid for it. (want to trade me something for it?)

I own and love my ESX too. I started on a 404 and once i bought the esx i have had a hard time using anything else. If roland would put the pitch knob that the esx has on one of their sps i wouldn't touch the tribe ever again.

When the first Electribes came out, I noticed that if you had all 4 of them, it spells MARS.
