I have the blue E2 and the old ER1 and ES1...E2 stands alone as a great portable groovebox in a way that no 1st-gen can IMO (but never tried an EM1). Not saying the old ones are crap or anything, they just don't cover your synth and drum parts like the newer one, and the grooves and pattern chaining are welcome and relatively easy additions to sequencing. 1st-gens have a heavy 31khz sound and have nice immediacy/UI though!

People complain the MPC One is to much like a DAW, and they also complain the Electribe is too old school. If they boosted the onboard RAM, had on-screen editing of waveforms and allowed non quantized sequencing, I't would be close to perfect. There is a bit of a way around the rigid sequencer- it has groove styles which add some feel to your patterns.

After a long (painful..) learning curve I am happy to use it live (and will be doing so in 10 days time) as the central time keeper for a range of synced devices (Gadget on iPad, NTS-1 and eurorack). It does have some strange quirks (each pad is on its own MIDI channel) but there are a few plus points.. MIDI Program change message selects pattern (very useful), above mentioned sync functions and the FX are especially.. er.. effective!

ESX-1 is best Electribe. The only real limitations are the envelope and the lack of polyphony, but I'll take 100% predictable mono tracks over having to worry about voice stealing (plus, only 4 bars!?? yuks) EDIT: And okay yeah the reverb is meh, but you can also send it out to an external reverb and then pump it back in. Thing is a beast. I won't lie though, a pocket sized battery powered groovebox is a luxury in itself, so I'm not *really* mad at this thing. I just think they should have named it something else. Feels like a different animal, rather than an ESX/EMX successor (also if anything it's an Electribe 3, maybe 3.5. The entire tech industry must have been getting high on their own supply of flux, because they all forgot how to count simultaneously (Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One.... Xbox One again??? I think?)

ive got on OG Korg emx-1 which i used for years, but it had only 3 effects, you couldnt process drums like you can on the electribe 2.( i have the blue one) The only thing i miss from the emx-1 are the tubes, they should have included those. I find the sequencer more versatile with polyrhythms, and the groove templates are also a great feature. The arp has now more options in generating grooves. The filter modeling has also been improved with a series of modeled filters. I really like that you can now do more processing with the drum sounds than you could on the emx-1. max 4 notes for a part is nice. But i bought it knowing that it couldnt deliver 24 note polyphony. I have an Roland mc 707 which a mainly use for sample based things. I would have liked another edit option on the sound generator, just as the emx-1 had. But those MFX sends are totally nonsense, even back in the days my mc-303 had sends that u could dial up. The emx-1 has this same problem. But having an MFX is an improvement on the old one i think. The emx-1 and the 2 have both their own identity, but are different. I still have my emx-1, maybe in the future i will use it as a midi sequencer. Too bad the audio in on the emx-1 is mono, because i would love to use it to get sounds through the tubes. The tube saturation on the emx-1 glues everything nice together and makes the sounds thicker and thats the main thing i miss on the 2. I wouldnt get the sampler because its too much hassle, but i dont fully understand the hate against the electribe 2 models. emx-1 and the 2 have both their own identity and their own flaws in it. But i still like the concept of these boxes. Last thing to say i really like your shows!

I had a sound guy apologise because he couldn't bring through all my base. Isola Beats channel has my jams. They jam nice.

Once again perfectly summed up. Among others the Picard "Reverb" meme ( 03:29) is very, very amusing & of course the AKAI Rapman (09:11), what makes one wonder if that spawn really exists. Does it? This time's suggestion is the perhaps overdue CASIO CZ-101 or better CZ-1. Programmed properly both are amazingly capable.

Chromatic-style keyboard, all the oscillators and filters from the synth version, pads that aren't crap as a crap thing, and analogue EQ from the volca sample. Thats all I want.

I made a dawless jam setup a few years ago and i used circuit, circuit mono station, and the electribe 2 sampler. They’re all good, they all have limitations, but if i wanted no limits I’d just use a DAW.
@chrisd59643 ай бұрын
Yes I think the circuit sounds great, it has its limits but what it does, it does well. This didn’t sound great until mixed with other gear somewhat ruining it as a groovebox really. You made a wise choice.
@orincat103 ай бұрын
i have one and love it. my only complaint is the lack of a "auto sample" feature (i.e. start sampling when the input reaches a certain threshold). that and the fact you can't turn off outputting program change.

The non sample version was my first groovebox and I filled it with countless fun ideas. Alas, whenever I break it out to resample into my octatrack the sound lacks a certain OOMPH and I find myself just using it as a sequencer for other synths with a zestier flavor. It's long overdue for a new version.

Dude. I lived in Germany for 6 years, and I figured out that a "w" is pronounced "vee"--so why is it so hard the other way around? 🤣I'm just fucking with you, but it does seem to be a failure of translation... Every time you see a "v" in english, just read "W" for the win! And keep up the amazing work, you crazy diamond.

Well if you graph it out, as you increase x, the curve goes down exponentially, so maybe it means at first it's really hard but then when you get past the initial time investment (like if x is... Time?), it approaches zero without ever really reaching it, meaning eventually no effort at all after a while. Look... My math teacher was a gorgeous Brazilian woman in her 20s who never buttoned the top of her blouse. Every math equation now inexplicably frustrates and arouses me, so that's the best I could come up with.

I bought one to complete the series ES1, ESX1, E2S. They all have their own unique strengths and weaknesses. The ES1 is great until you want to play chromatically, the ESX has that covered but the lack of FX per part can be frustrating altnough 8 bars per pattern are a welcome feature, the E2S sucks for only having 4 bars but has those per-part FX covered and the multii-mode filter is a defninite imorovement with the built-in mini kaoss pad a great performance feature for master FX. Motion sequencing has always been the tribes strength and the E2S has this in spades, so you can have part FX and master FX added momentarily in your sequence and record the kaoss pad motion. The LFO has some great routing options, but a second LFO woukd have been nice. I've never used it as a sequencer for external gear but having a 16 channel polyphonic sequencer for this price is a great - second hand prices are half (or less) that of a digitakt, so i had been considering it for that role in the hardware gig rig and letting the better performance samplers like the 'takt, ESX and octatrack do the heavy sample lifting. I'm assuming the 24 note polyphony limit only applies to internal sound processing... Hope so. For day to day use thst limit isn't really a problem, you just work to the limitations and set note priority to high for your most important elements. You can actually utilise as an effect within a track like you can with a tracker. Maybe that's why I'm comfortable with it because my first experience writing music was with a tracker (and why i like the Polyend), that note-stealing ia something you use to your benefit in that workflow. Of sll the tribes i actually spend more time with this one than the others, because it offers the most complete groovebox/DAWless writing experience in a single package while remaining really lightweight and fairly compact. Have you tried balancing an ESX on your knees sat on the sofa? The power brick of that thing weighs more than the E2S!!! 😂 One thing not mentioned is all the shortcuts that Korg didn't print on the front where Shift-Pad presses save you from a lot of menu diving so adding an overlay or stickers is essential.

The polyphony thing is even worse than one might expect
@TimJacksonOriginal3 ай бұрын
@@AudioPilz Yeah it was surprising the first time I used it. Can be frustrating if you have a nice long pad or strings sample that cuts off when you have too much going on, but you can always resample chords, then play them back as single notes to expand the available polyphony.
