@zerstaerker cheers dude ! Might get my mojo back one day.

It's not really like a standard efx unit it's a groovebox. If you watched the video entirely you see you need an open gate to use the effects. Maybe try watching it ??

thanks. yeah that what it seemed like, i just wanted to confirm. the video is 21 minutes long and i dont have that long to answer a simple question like can u plug a device in and use the e2 reverb. i skipped around and it looked like it wasnt that simple. thanks for confirming. @@ZafroSoundz

Using the drum seq section on the beatstep to trigger a synth, that's it. Just connect it by midi and select midi channels. It's that simple.

Check out my other vid, enjoyed making this one too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6rCkKRmoL2Bppo

Unless you can articulate a little better I've no idea what your problem is. What pedal? What are you trying to do ? There's no pedal input on rhe es2 ??

​@@ZafroSoundz sorry english isnt my home langue.... external guitar effect pedal using for better sound of bassline for example distortion type of pedal... From bassline to pedal than goes to esx2 in audio in slot but it didnt sound :/ and all is set right did you know if I must use only mono cables or mono reductions? or how it do it? if didnt know nevermind Still thanks.

Great to hear, thank you 😃

Cheers pal 😎

Yep it can pump out some noise, not particularly refined (although careful programming it can sound good) but good for its price range. I've got a new jam on the way. I'll probably record it tomorrow. Been a while.

@@ZafroSoundz sweet!!!! I recently got a second hand one and deff worth every penny! After watching your video I was thinking about using it as a drum machine and also pairing it with a microFreak and do some fxProcessing using the electribe2 ;) can't wait for your jam. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, might watch it again, I need inspiration to return to the studio.

It's a really versatile machine.

I'm pretty sure it's in midi settings. I don't have the machine to hand it's at the studio so I can't look atm. Check the manual.

Which voice? There's a lot going on.

It was tricky but ultimately very satisfying. Unfortunately the ms2000 has developed a fault. I think the dsp chip needs reflowing but it's way beyond my capabilities.

@@ZafroSoundz that’s a huge bummer. Sorry to hear that. I bought my 2nd MS less then a month ago on eBay for $320 but all the restoration I did was on the outside. Point being, you might be able to find a working one thats really messed up on the exterior and get it for cheap. Then swap out the whole board. I don’t know much about the inner workings of chips, but it’s easy to swap whole boards out via a few screws and connectors.

I’m guessing the rack version would be the cheapest if the exterior was in ruff shape. Probably the same boards inside both the rack and keyboard versions.

@@thedeepblueskys yes they're exactly the same. Maybe one day I'll swap it out.

@@ZafroSoundz right on, good luck if you decide to do that. Apparently these older early 2000 Keyboards and rack units are worth a lot parted out now days. I ordered two knobs for $40 bucks because there is not much for replacement parts online. So haven’t a 2nd one around just for the parts is a good thing. That’s if longevity is important. I built my collection of synths, samplers, modules, and groove boxes up to last a lifetime if I take care of them. Which I do. They all have cases except the Radias, MS2000, and Moog Grandmother. Also my Theremin too lol all in due time.

Think it's still available on bandcanp for a nominal fee. Thanks for the feedback, I had to listen again, it takes me back in time, cheers. Peace ✌️ ☮️

I don't think so, not tried to but don't recall seeing the option. The export pattern allows you to export your patterns as audio on separate tracks, I've done this, the files are exported as wav minus any effects used.

@@ZafroSoundz thanks man yeah just trying now it don't seem to work I guess you can record a midi file playing from Ableton to e2 I was hoping to import some midi drum patterns save some time not going to happen lol

Motion record doesn't record mutes only parameter movements. It's not a "track recorder" it's a recorder of parameter movements on existing tracks, it's been around since the korg ms2000.

@@ZafroSoundz oh ok it says knobs and pads in the manual I was thinking it's for exporting a track . problem I'm having is in chain mode you can't mute pad on each loop so it remembers soon as the loops change it obviously goes back to original state no way around this ?

@@timgstar3585 unfortunately not, in this price range of groove box it does have it's limitations. As good as it is it does have some annoying flaws.

@@ZafroSoundz thanks man I'm just watching your video now on pattern set see if I can link my chained loops out

@@ZafroSoundz Hi dude I was just looking to see is it possible to save all stock sounds in the e2 straight to SD card then take my SD card to pc or laptop edit all the stock sounds with FX or what ever and then put them back in to the e2 is that possible ? I don't mean just Ableton maybe wavelab

Press shift and octave top 2 far right pads.

@@ZafroSoundz yeah, I had tried that but just stays on same octave. Odd

@@marcnellis6504 Right ok, I get what you're saying now. No, octave won't effect the drum track. Each pad is an individual note. You would have to go into the software and make a custom scale. Most drum machines start at c1 so you'd have to start at maybe c3 or whatever to get higher octaves. I guess you would be able to save the different octaves on different patterns, it's not something I've tried.

@@ZafroSoundz cheers, I will have another look at the software tomorrow and see if I can change the pitch of each note. Really hope I can do it as will be a game changer for doing solo sets

So yeah, changing from chromatic scale to custom worked. Took it up a couple of octaves. Hopefully Arturia will address in the next update the option to change octave without having to use midi control centre. Cheers again!

@@ZafroSoundz haha nice thanks for answering my question, that’s an easier way then cutting up another microkorg to bolt to mine. Your inventions are rad, dude.

@@acidbathouseproductions yeah man. I just wanted to make something interesting. Some called it pointless but actually it's really fun ✌😆

Appreciate that dude. I will be starting with new content next year. Been a tough couple.

zafrosoundz just keep your head up dude, things can only improve in the new year (I hope). I just don't watch the news or radio, makes life much nicer lol

L and R output are 2 mono outputs together they make stereo. If you use the L only with a mono lead it will be mono out put no stereo field, you won't be able to pan instruments in your patterns. In this video I'm mainly referring to the INPUT which is a small stereo jack. Use your out puts in stereo, one mono lead to one channel L and one to another R then hard pan them on your mixer corresponding to L or R, all the way Left and all the way R then you'll have stereo. Some mixers have dedicated channels that are stereo so no need to pan you just plug in L and R.

@@ZafroSoundz Oh I see right that makes sense now .am right in thinking you could use a stereo jack just from the left output nothing in the right as this would be a stereo signal coming out from the left as long as you don't plug anything in the right out put ? Because it says that in the manual

@@timgstar3585 No can't use a stereo jack to get stereo from one output unless the output is stereo, it's a mono output, the manual just says if you only use the L output then the internal sounds will be mixed down to mono. You can use a stereo jack on mono outputs, this is a called a tipped lead, and can be used to sort out grounding issues but really in this situation you should be using mono cables.

@@ZafroSoundz Got you thanks man really appreciate the help 🤘

Not to my knowledge.

Wow that was a steall at $700 mine was about $1200 from the states and I had to pay duty. I'll never part with it. I too have gear regrets, minimoog 1976 urggghhh, it was in disrepair so got it for like £600 I had it fixed and sold it for a good profit, went to Italy but now it's now worth 4 times the value!! It did pay for my studio though but I just want the synth it sounded amazing.

I got both of them, and love being able to take them with me outside in the summer..! Some things are a bit limited (like one modifier, local effect, and envelope per track, as well as not having a full ADSR envelope), but other things are really good for such a small and affordable "all in one" product (like the selection of waveforms on the synth version, and being able to layer up to 16 oscillators - which allows for creating some very authentic drum sounds, as well as other types of samples). On top of this, i think they are just really cool looking devices, with a great workflow..! I would never trade mine for any other instrument (that im aware of) in the same price range. EDIT: Actually, the price of both these are not too far from "Komplete Ultimate". Of course, this is software, so you need a computer ro run it, and computers dont provide that same "hands on" experience as hardware... Some also believe analog creates nicer sounds - but that can easily be emulated with some modifiers on a digital synth. Considering that "Reaktor 6" allows you to design your own synths, samplers, effects, sequencers, etc - with basically no limitations except your skills, and what your computer can handle - to me, this seems like *the best* music production options on this planet..! And with all the other stuff you get in the "Komplete" packs, its a simple choice - for me... Very happy to have both Komplete 11 Ultimate and both the electribes :P

Watch my follow vid too, it goes a bit further. Any questions post them here.

@@ZafroSoundz epic thanks man 👍

@@ZafroSoundz hi how you are keeping well so I been trying to assign a complete pattern to one pad and another pattern to another pad but all I'm getting is single shots looping is it possible to have complete patterns on each pad ?
