I don't have an Electribe.  but that sounds like the MD way of doing it
as well.  the main difference with the MnM is that you can have controller
changes on any note instead of just the notes where you have trigs.
and you can assign the controllers to the joystick so you can tweak them
in realtime.

you can't, however, record a PB/MW setting unless you dedicate a
controller to it/them.  and the controllers are assigned in the global
menu (unlike the MD, where they're assigned within the machine); so you
can't parameter lock a change of which CC# a controller should be
assigned to, like you can in the MD.

it's internal sequencing is much more full-featured since it's built in
and designed for the MnM. but the MIDI sequencing is still a worthwhile
feature (which I use all the time).
