Has anyone tried this setup? Is it working?
Sequencing the blofeld via the electribe and then sending the output of the blofeld back into the electribe (audio in). |

Don't know if this helps but I do it with the iPad version of nave which is very similar to the blofeld |

I do!, i use the electribe to sequence the Blofeld. Without problems.
First I make a track with a electribe OSC.
Then change that OSC to audio in "OSC" (freeing Polyphony)
Then conect via midi to blofeld. Each track electribe automatically activate the corresponding blofeld track painless. |

hey, that's my setup. e2+blofeld. the blofeld has multimode, so i set it to omni. switching parts live on the e2 and creating different sequence interplay's good fun. the only problem is that i can't stop the blofeld from receive volume change on corresponding channels. i can't stop program change with a pattern change on the e2 either. been thru it all on the blofleld. think it must be a bug? any help would be great. i'm trying to program an arduino to filter midi data for this and it ain't going too well |

Did you try the midi filter on the electribe? |

yeah, i've tried the filter but doesn't have an option just to send note on/off.
i thought that it was a bit odd that they didn't include it? tried on the blodeld to block program change and cc receives. didn't work, which might be another blofeld bug. nice synth but it's got a few little bugs sneaking around it still. the only option at the mo is putting them thru a js cc filter in Reaper. |

Yeah, this is a PITA. Hope Korg will beef up the tribe sequencer MIDI parameters in a future firmware release, if any.
In the meantime, think I'm gonna invest in a Miditech MIDI Thru 4 / Filter, to avoid the need of a computer in the loop.

So it's all a bit complicated?
I was thinking the blofeld could take over synth duties, because it has two available effect slots. Plus, it would free up some voices. |

I also have a blofeld but have not used it with the electribe yet (just got it) did you get the issue worked out in this particular set up? |

i think they work well for me because i like the sound, multimode and sample options(i've got the e2) of the blofeld. the work around so far is to set program change to a channel you're not sequencing the blofeld from. i set mine to 16. the volume one is only a hassle if you want to keep changing the volume on the corresponding e2 part, then you have to change it back on the blofeld! i'm really happy with them together. i've had the e2 for a month-it's mint little bit of kit
thanks for the miditech info. |

Hi - new here, greetings all... I'm trying to get my E2 to change the blofeld's multi when changing pattern. I can't work out how to do it. Does anybody know if this is possible? Thanks... |

hi, pedro. i don't think that's possible unless you're using the the e2 as a controller via a daw. i could be wrong tho. also the e2 program change values don't seem to correspond with the blofelds- say if you select pattern 101 on the e2, you will not get 101 patch on the blofeld. these are just my observations, i don't have a clue what's going on technically! put the blo in multi mode and you'll have 16 different patches to play around with. |

Hey folks,
I also use my beloved Blofeld with the e2s
I set the electribe parts on the "audio in" osc
and the Blofeld is in "MULTI"
(I reinject the audio of the Blofeld to the audio input of the e2s)
just like you I guess..
but if I want to export the audio it seems the sound of the Blofeld is altered
if my sound have long tails (reverb,delay..) the audio export on the electribe cuts the notes on these parts
any idea?
(no problem in "playback mode", the sound is good, it happens just when I want to export) |

...for the CC correspondence issue between the blofeld and the electribe I think something like that is more appropriate:
http://www.midisolutions.com/prodepp.htm
I plan to buy one and remap all the CC sent by the knobs of the electribe to correspond with the Blofeld's ones
So I could control my Blofeld from the electribe!
(and no more accidental knob turn who changes an unwanted parameter on the Blofeld)
I thought to build something like that with an arduino...cheaper solution! but I don't have a lot of time for that....
plus, this one is self-powered (through MIDI) autonomous..I don't know how to do that with an arduino.. |

you could try setting the part priority for the blofeld input to high. that might work. |
