Serial Number: 000953
FW: 1.02, 1.03 installed now.
Store: Sweetwater Sound
Country: Indiana, USA

I received my Electribe December 23rd. Enjoying exploring it so far & like the sounds I am getting out of it. Mostly I have been using the sound sets from a few presets I like and writing new music with the sounds. I'll have to print out a copy of the parameter lists and get more in depth when I have more "me" time. For modulations, I thought most people are used to selecting source and destination separately, rather than from a list of entries which show both. Not a big deal though ..

Your electribe was predestined to recreate the Knight Rider theme.

Wow, that's incredible! Maybe your Trans Am will bust out of the museum and return home. Have you tried calling it on your watch?

You could probably program the entire theme inside a single pattern, though you'd need to put the bassline and lead on a couple of parts to get the variations - then mute and unmute as needed.

Got mine from Sweetwater.com the day after Christmas. I pre-ordered it back in November.

Initial OS: 1.02
Later Upgraded to OS 1.03

I'm so happy with it since it fits with my workflow.

S/N 2748
Firmware was already 1.03 but forgot to check and updated anyway :roll:
Got it from keymusic in Roeselare Belgium.
I checked every Large european online music shop daily for availability with no succes. I just tried my luck yesterday at the local music shop in my town, they had three in stock, two were perordered, i had the last one, nice :D

i Only had a couple of hours to play with i but apart from Some quirks i'm loving it so far!

Bought mine locally Music Planet NZ serial 000792

PS
With the new paypal six month buyer return policy (Kicked in Nov 18th) I wonder how many of the buyers that paid inflated prices through Japan Ebay sellers will be returning them and buying at half the price locally as they become available ?

Tip
Contact Tim at Crazy Daves FL for best deals PERIOD on Korg in USA

Since these serial numbers seem to be sequential (and not a random 6-digit ID string) we might be able to estimate the total production run - if people keep showing up to post their serials.

Any bets how many Korg will make, and how long the product will last?
