Hi. You have to have the trigger active on the part pad that you want to edit. The menu automatically changes it´s setting to that certain part.

1. Sure that these numbers are meaning bars?
2. Can these numbers also be odd-numbered, e.g. 3 or 5?

Thank you in advance ...
1.) Yes. Just tested it :-)
2.) They can be all from 1 to 16 :-), so yes.

Thanks for checking this :D

Regarding to the specs, the maximum pattern length is 64 steps (which is equal to 4 bars). I don't understand how a part can be longer than the maximum pattern length of 4 bars. Are you sure not confusing bars with beats?

We all owe you one, Kilko!

So if you'll post your address, what times you're not at home and the easiest way in and out of where you're keeping the electribe, I'd be happy to stop by.

:lol:

Seriously, though - all the info you're providing is great. Thanks!

Nooooice! thanks Kilko for uploading those. On the other thread, the New Electribes, some people were complaining about the sounds so I thought it would be cool if you'd post some stuff since we can get some variety and see what the machine is capable of!

I understand that there is a Gate Arpeggiator feature in the new new Tribe.

In the Kaossilator Pro the Gate Arpeggiator has 2 specific perpetrators; Gate Time which really functions as a "wet to dry" mix of the legato effect and Gate Speed which gave specific ranges speed where the sound is heard from a 1/4 note to 1/8 note intervals.

My questions regarding the Electribes Gate Arpeggiator is there are way to change the speed of the legato ranging from "no legato" to 1/4 to 1/8 intervals?

Answer: Listen here:

http://www38.zippyshare.com/v/95508593/file.html


Is there a "wet / dry" setting the controls the impact to the sound of the Gate Areggiator?

Answer: Yeah, but only through the menu. Here you can change the value from 1 up to 50, but 8 is probably the max you´ll use.

But I was wondering if you could do a demo and test to see if you can have the same sound, on more than one part.

Answer: Listen here: http://www12.zippyshare.com/v/82896096/file.html

I´m adding 1 more layer of the same sound after every loop.
Thanks for your answers. I'm not sure if I was clear in my questions though. Also I forget when you do demos, you tend to use Zippy and I was expecting a youtube video to see exactly how you are implementing the technique I was asking about.

I think to better answer my questions I'll use someone elses youtube video as an example:

This is for the question about changing Gate Speed from a 1/4 note to 1/8 note intervals
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNCzzVHtz1U

I think you did do this in your first demo. Did you use the kaoss bad on the tribe to pull this off?

My question about gate time was definitely confusing.

Right at 2:10 in this video example you will see that the slider on the Kaossilator is used to change the 1/8 gate speed's "TIME" or depth as it were. When the slider is up, you have the full sound, when the slider lower or down the the 1/8 gate goes from a real smooth to snappy hits to a really tight and beat like clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRlExT3WncI

Can we do this on the tribe touch pad as well?

I hope this helps in understanding what I am looking for. Thanks!
Kilko-

If you could go back and revisit my questions on the Gate Arp in the above quote, I would really appreciate it. I have listed two video examples of what I am looking for to help make my questions easier to understand.

A you tube demo of how you work with the Gate Arp would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -SMK
