The Korena take

EP-40 riddim is a compact sampler and sequencing workstation built around three Sound, Main and Tempo modes. Record through its stereo input or bring in audio over USB-C, then shape samples with pitch, looping, envelopes, time-stretching and the subtractive synth engine. Nine editable projects, patterns and scenes give you room to organize arrangements, while pressure-sensitive pads, a fader and X/Y encoders keep performance changes hands-on. Sync, MIDI and USB-C MIDI/audio make it ready to join a larger hardware setup.
