Sure you can. Just use your hands to play your melodies manually on a part that has no note data recorded on it. Or record it manualy into the Event Recorder. Or divide the programming up between multiple parts or patterns.
Consider this...
250 patterns x 4 bars = 1000 bars
4 Pattern Set banks x 16 pads = 64 Patterns (256 Bars) that can be triggered live in any order you wish
If you are trying to cram all your ideas into just one single looped pattern, of course you're going to hit a brick wall.

How hard is this for people to understand? Why do people not understand that this is useful to people that want to create COMPLEX music not just 4 on the floor crap. Why even have 4 bars just have 1 huh? Even if you can't understand how to make a evolving swelling long synth part someday you might and then you would understand. And this is a dumbed down Electribe for DJ and beginner synthesists and people like that will love it. I on the other hand have a studio FULL of gear that makes this sound and work like a beginner box to me and my bandmate. By the way I am no dummy I have music you can walk into any music store and buy and am glad I choose not to reveal who I really am on here. I came trying to help make this machine something special and improve it to a PRO level but I am done here. Some have understood, most not. Have fun and good bye. |
hey Glitchcraft don't give up hope, im not a "4 on the floor" guy too, i know/understand wt u mean, and hope to have more than 4bar to play with synth too, maybe Korg will listen and update just like Tempest did, they changed 4 bar to 8 too. you don't have to say bye man, too early to tell right? |

There is no additional value in the mod. What shift does is cycle options skipping the different types. - a,b,c,d, etc, then a1,b1,c1,d1, a2,b2,c2, etc. Shift cycles a,a1,a2.
I was rather disappointed with this purchase. It is indeed, no Electribe at all, and my disappointment is in expecting one. I absolutely abhor computers as medium, and this thing is software in a box, complete with that pick and poke mousy feel. As a portable, it is lots of fun, with some delicious sound potential. Still, I am mad with myself that I did not instead get a newer model EMX, as my original model suddenly contracted asberger's turrets.

Complex music, not 4 on the floor crap, huh? Then how would you describe this track for example:

And nothing wrong with that. I'd rather make something that gets thousands of people moving than make esoteric artsy self-wankery.
Not that I do, but you get the point. Music snobbery is silly and needs to go away from this forum. There's Gearslutz for that. |

You don't get the context, Brambos.
The original poster in a lenghty rant (more than 8 bars for sure…) about the new Electribe was trashing this kind of music, and implying that Korg's new groovebox was designed specifically for creating shitty EDM, nothing else.
That's made the tracks found on a souncloud profile also called „Glitchcraft” so „interesting”…
So I'm not attacking any specific style of music, I'm just wondering if there isn't a huge dose of hipocrisy not only in his Electribe criticism, but his criticism about other users of this forum, implying that we basically are musically retarded amateurs that live in the small world of 4 bars and can't understand anything more complex.

Artsy self-wankery? Tautological.
'Wankery' already implies self-service. |
