I made a start on a debricking guide. It will be a while before it's fleshed out, but you may find these notes useful: Electribe 2 Debrick Guide As far as I can tell, the Silabs adapter isn't supported by OpenOCD, there is a page in the manual dealing with different adapters: https://www.openocd.org ...

You can fix this via JTAG using OpenOCD and a Raspberry Pi. A few details in this thread, use these OpenOCD config files.

J9, marked 'AM1802' (the top one in the photo) is for the CPU, this is the one you need. J10, marked 'BF523' is for the DSP.

if I swap the motherboard from the broken one into the functional one will I be able to access the pattern data? Yes, assuming the fault is not with the motherboard. It worked for about a day then it wouldn't power on at all. Were there batteries in it while it was working? Have you checked the ...

If I start OpenOCD and press the power button at the same time the processor halts in the bootloader, in internal RAM at 0x80nnnnnn. Set a breakpoint at 0xc0000000 then resume and wait for it to halt. Then load the latest firmware and wait for it to boot. The first time the firmware boots it runs ...

It now starts up and asks me for an update file off the SD card If it gets this far you shouldn't need to do anything invasive. It will only see the file if it is at the correct path for the original factory model. It will only install the file if it is the latest firmware for the original factory ...

In the end I found I couldn't get a clean write using RPi and FlashROM, probably due to cheap connectors. I managed to fix it via JTAG using OpenOCD instead, see http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/ ... p?t=124723.

If it's a software fault you can probably fix it via JTAG. I use OpenOCD and a Raspberry Pi. If the screen is lighting up, the secondary bootloader is probably fine but the application is corrupt. You should be able to halt the processor at 0xc0000000, load in the bytes from the firmware update file ...

The E2 can only send each part on its respective channel. I haven't used an FA06, but it sounds like it may be set to Omni mode, receiving on all channels.

I use 87 bpm with groove templates to fill in the 16ths. I find slower tempo makes it easier to use step jump for beat chopping.

You could record a complete performance on the electribe as an event recording, then split the event recording into separate channels, or stems using this script: https://github.com/bangcorrupt/e2/blob/master/e2ev.py This will give you one event recording per stem. Play each one back on the ...

Were you able to obtain/verify the correct code for the MX25L12835F? Korg do not stock this, only a replacement motherboard for about the cost of a complete second hand unit. I asked here and on Reddit but no luck. ...was thinking of just trying to read from both and see what happens I can read and ...
