Posted: Wed Nov 13, 2019 6:51 pm Post subject: Broken SD slot |
|
|
Hello, I just broke my SD card slot in the electribe 2 sampler. A little plastic piece, im guessing a piece that holds the contacts in place. (SD card still locks in) When I place the card in the symbol in the display showed the SD card icon like it registers it but no information is loaded. it just sits on the main startup screen till it times out them loads patterns with no samples. Ive tried a diffrent SD card and same issue, the SD card is not the issue.
So I opened it up to see what would need to be done to repair the SD slot. It looks like its connected to the main (motherboard?) (if anyone knows a company that could re solder an SD slot) other wise I would need a new (motherboard) or a new machine.
My question is this can I take my SD card out of one electribe and put it in another electribe 2 sampler and have it work flawlessly? Im worried cause when you start the machine without the card it has all the patterns stored on the electribe. Im worried that if i replace the motherboard or get a different machine that the patterns are on the motherboard and the samples are on the SD card and all my hard work is gone, unless I fix the SD slot on my original machine. (or get one of those pattern ripping programs ive just read about)
But what happens when you just put a SD card into another electribe? |

Thanks, i was hoping it wouldnt be so complicated. The korg parts place never emailed me back. I found a local repairman that has a microscope for soldering. We found the part today to replace with. Might be around 100$ to fix. Ima try this first.
With the sysEx that just runs through the usb? Never dont this. Can i just you tube sysEx to learn about it? |

Yes, you can use either USB or TRS MIDI connection.
System Exclusive messages are manufacturer defined MIDI messages used for special functions.
The general form for e2 sampler pattern dump request is:
F0 42 3g 00 01 24 1C pp PP F7
g = Global channel
pp = Pattern number LSB
PP = Pattern number MSB
Assuming global channel is set to 1 on the device, to get the first pattern send:
F0 42 30 00 01 24 1C 00 00 F7
Save the response with a .syx file extension. Sending this file over a MIDI connection will load the pattern to the new device.
There is no SysEx message to dump all patterns, so you would have to run this in a loop, incrementing the pattern number each time.
For the second pattern:
F0 42 30 00 01 24 1C 01 00 F7
For pattern 128:
F0 42 30 00 01 24 1C 7f 00 F7
For pattern 129:
F0 42 30 00 01 24 1C 00 01 F7
For pattern 250:
F0 42 30 00 01 24 1C 79 01 F7 _________________ https://freesound.org/people/bangcorrupt/
