I have a few deadlines coming up so I can't record the demos or answer all the questions straight away, but I'll start slowly going through them. What I've tested so far (firmware 1.03): Electribe 2 sends and receives MIDI note data for 16 parts on 16 corresponding MIDI channels. You can't reassign ...

Well, my electribe has just arrived from Japan as well. Don't have much time to play with it, unfortunately, but one thing I can confirm straight away is that the synth engine is absolutely capable of creating some tasty drum sounds from scratch. You can get a very solid kick from the Moog filter ...

The video description on this says:

bassDrum:OSC: SINE
Snare drum:OSC: BOOST-SAW
bass:OSC VPM-SINE1
bass2:OSC:X-SQUARE2

meaning that the synth engine allows to create drum sounds from scratch.

Somehow I doubt that Korg will extend the bar count to 8. It is quite clear that one of their main goals with this electribe was the workflow and immediate access to all main features. They've already built the unit with 4 buttons for bar selection, each of them with two LEDs to display the bar that ...

We've got another official demo where a Korg rep goes through the preset patterns again: http://youtu.be/bI_crIE46VY One thing that's worth the attention is that right from the beginning you can see and hear him switching the patterns. It seems like the "gap" is less noticeable and isn't actually a ...

New demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbnF0xNw8T4

Now with sequencing external gear (MS-20 mini) over MIDI, some filter action on the electribe and no PCM sax.

I am a little bit surprised to see people equating a simple synth engine to the machine being a preset box. What's wrong with one editable parameter per oscillator? The oscillator is just a starting point, not the whole engine. In an analogue synth you usually get just the PWM on a square wave and ...

In other news, I've seen at least three reports of a faulty touch pad from Japan already, this is the latest one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GIN-lT2cqU In the great tradition of electribes... Some are gonna be faulty. The emx/esx had a common issue known as.......Drumroll please ...

Nevada Music posted a new Electribe demo (presets mostly) and a release date - Dec 2014.

You can find "last step" in the menu structure list posted on the first page of this thread. It's in the pattern menu. Same for length: in the pattern menu. So I am afraid we cannot have different part lengths. I expected nothing else from Korg... Ouch. That is a huge let down for me. Don't you ...

New short demo on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/homura-zan/elect ... rary-house

It features a bassline with some filter action and everyone's favorite - touch scale sax

Kilko, thanks for your answers! In the end of your video you showed that there was some delay between the knob movement and the actual parameter change. It is possible that this happened because the "Knob Mode" in global parameters was set to "Catch". In this mode turning the knob won't have any ...

I have a question about the envelope. Not even a question, a theory that needs verification. So far I've learnt three things about the envelope on the electribe: 1. According to the parameter guide and the manual there's no option for switching the envelope mode between Attack-Decay and Attack ...

Damn, that was the main thing I wanted to know. No independent MIDI channels? I wouldn't jump ship just yet, he still hasn't confirmed this by testing the MIDI OUT ports in the back. Knowing how MIDI sequencers work, all sixteen Parts would have to be operating on separate channels, otherwise the ...

Is some kind of deformation on the middle of the body, just stetic problem i tink. I'm not sure what this means? Here's a google translation of what the guy said about this "initial defectiveness" in the video description: And opened to I took this video in about 2 hours. After recording, because ...
