I'm syncing directly via USB as well. I guess I get latency in the audio signal path you don't get.Tarekith wrote:Keep in mind I wasn't using an interface, direct usb to the electribe.

Re: New Korg Electribe
I would be interested to know how you compare the electribe to your elektrons. Not a feature by feature comparison (can read manuals for that) but would like to know which device you would reach for first to make some music?Tarekith wrote: Just posted my video review of the electribe for those interested in learning more about it:

Well, I sold the elektrons two years ago, so....

Re: New Korg Electribe
Elektron gear looks a bit of a steep learning curve…mind you so was ableton haha!
Re: New Korg Electribe
Yes and no. The MD is easy to grok, the OT can be really confusing for some people. The others fit somewhere in the middle I find.
I think the biggest difference is that other than the Monomachine, the Elektron boxes tend to be a little more performance friendly than the new Electribe is so far.

Re: New Korg Electribe
The A4 has macros you can assign, as does the MD, so you only need to stay on one screen most of the time. The OT has scenes and the xfader to change multiple parameters at once. Almost all the Elektrons let you instantly reload your kit with a button combo.
They just tend to include a functions for the live performer, they know people use their gear on stage a lot.

Re: New Korg Electribe
No info from the Electribe Sampler in NAMM and it should be shipping in 6 weeks.. Kabushiki-gaisha Korugu i am dissapoint!
I just want to know if you can properly edit samples straight from the screen. If so i will preorder one asap.

I want to know if it can sample from its audio inputs. Fixed length recording and loop after record stop would be BIG advantages too!rosti wrote:No info from the Electribe Sampler in NAMM and it should be shipping in 6 weeks.. Kabushiki-gaisha Korugu i am dissapoint!

Re: New Korg Electribe
Older models could sample from audio in so i think the new one can also. Only reason i didn't buy one is that editing your samples without any waveform display is a real pain in the ass. Like if you trying to get the endpoint of a sample righ, you have to listen to your sample over and over again.. Really frustrating with longer samples. If its the same with the "Electribe 2" i'm going to save my money for an Octatrack. Those new Electribes are just so small and sexy. And the fact that they run on battery power got me even more excited.TomViolenz wrote:I want to know if it can sample from its audio inputs.

I guess I'm looking more at a general layering (looper) workflow.
So for me it is more important that the transition from recording to playback/looping is smooth and at a "musical" loop length.
Re: New Korg Electribe
got mine today, after a 3 shop odyssey...
but, wooohoo it's finally here.
someone knows if it is possible to have different legnths for every part? and how to do it?

Re: New Korg Electribe
Sorry for bumping up an old thread but...
I'm still having pattern switch gap issues. It doesn't happen at all when I switch between factory patterns. But If I make one, even if, let say, pattern 1 & pattern 2 are the same (exact copies of each other), I still get an audio gap. I'm sure I must be doing something wrong but I have no idea what it could be. x_x Anyone else has this issue ? (I'm on firmware 2.02)
