TheDoctor - thanks for the reply, you are correct, best to do the tweaking of the loop point on the device itself,
I'll probably audition the samples and choose a smaller group to use initially, so it's not going to be a big deal.

I have some more questions but think its better that I get the electribe first,
play with it and ask only if don't figure out something, that's part of the fun in having new gear.

Anyhow, found this nice tutorial on YouTube, sharing it here :

roblabs - nice, reminds me of euro dance tunes from the 90's,
did you record this straight from the electribe's outputs ?

For my taste I definitely would go for the sampler (it’s much more flexible)...

this!
The build in Oscillator, make this device a nice all around groove box.
Surely the synth version is still a groove box but you'll end up with its limitations.
Also for everyone with the Sampler, start to layer drum with synth drum...it's basically a mini Elektron Analog Rytm.
