Hello, can anyone tell me the the charts for the pitch on the ESX-1?

A guy told me these are the charts:

00 = C
+07 = C#
+10 = D
+13 = D#
+16 = E
+19 = F
+22 = F#
+25 = G
+28 = G#
+31 = A
+34 = A#
+37 = B
+40 = C
+42 = C#
+44 = D
+46 = D#
+48 = E
+50 = F
+52 = F#
+54 = G
+56 = G#
+58 = A
+60 = A#
+62 = B
+63 = C

But im not sure, because the manual (page 47) states something else http://i.korg.com/ESX1

Ive tried looking on the notes in ableton with the spectrum , but havent had much luck with that.

Can anyone give me a definite answer? Thanks!

found it
with abletons tuner device.

00 = C
+06 = C#
+09 = D
+12 = Eb
+15 = E
+18 = F
+21 = F#
+24 = G
+27 = Ab
+30 = A
+33 = Bb
+36 = B
+39 = C
+41 = C#
+43 = D
+45 = Eb
+47 = E
+49 = F
+51 = F#
+53 = G
+55 = Ab
+57 = A
+59 = Bb
+61 = B
+63 = C

00 = C
-07 = B
-10 = Bb
-13 = A
-16 = Ab
-19 = G
-22 = F#
-25 = F
-28 = E
-31 = Eb
-34 = D
-37 = C#
-40 = C
-42 = B
-44 = Bb
-46 = A
-48 = Ab
-50 = G
-52 = F#
-54 = F
-56 = E
-58 = Eb
-60 = D
-62 = C#
-63 = C

Would the sample your using to test affect these results at all?

I don't think this is correct

Yeah this isn't gonna work, not unless all samples are in the same key/scale/etc.

Say you have rootnote that is an B, the concept remains the same and you still need these values when you want to change notes. + 6 , +9 etc.
-07 , -10 etc. etc.

I used a single cycle waveform, which was exactly 675 notes long. Which is a C note, according to abletons tuner.

there is a pitch chart in the manual, which is right when you want to pitch it up, but the manual is wrong when you pitch it down, They had the values wrong, ive came to the conclusion, when you want to pitch it down,, you need these values: -07 , -10 etc. etc.(see above)

nice

AM I dreaming ... 48 is octave for me ... Can anybody confirm this?

Anyone know if the new electribe is the same?

Ups... Sorry guys I just noticed that this thread is not related to e2 ... Either way after u dial 48 on the new tribe it gets very tough to tune a nice interval

You can test it out, if you have a ableton live lite or above. You can download the free beta 9.2 from ableton. I suggest you use a single cycle waveform for this. The Tuner device only picks up those, and (high pitched) drums

I did not have any serials, but I still found the beta on the web

I work for Ableton, getting a copy of Live is no issue

I was just curious if someone had already done this for the new tribe, thanks though.

Doh! I didn't even read, this is for the esx1. There's a pitch chart for the new electribes on the electribe facebook group...

Any chance you can copy it here? I'm not on Facebook anymore, sorry.
