EJ2
EVERY EJ2 MP3 demo is an honest illustration of a new Korg Karma Combination designed by Eric Sawyer for his various collections. Each demo is played and recorded live without further processing, sequencing or overdubbing. The purpose is to demonstrate an EJ2 combi as it is with the KARMA and Latch "ON" while activating the CHORD TRIGGERS and free improvising with left and right hand lead/accompaniment.
In addition, some of the REALTIME CONTROLS such as the RTC & K-RTC knobs, joystick, SWs or SCENE change are applied.
WHAT YOU HEAR IS WHAT YOU GET AND MUCH MORE.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Music and Eric have been hanging out for years. While his early formal piano studies did not reflect the diligence required of a master, he ventured into the realm of sonic experimentation and a love affair with a variety of instruments, especially keyboards, synthesizers, and anything electronic. Currently his work is dedicated to electronic music and the development of sound generation and reproduction at his studio EJ2 - Double EJ Projects in Port Dover, Canada.
