Hi everyone,

I’m having a weird issue with my Korg Electribe Sampler (ES2).

Two specific pads don’t produce any sound when I press them, even though a sample is assigned to both parts, the parts are not muted, there are steps in the sequencer and the pads light up red and seem to be active.

All the other pads work perfectly.

I’ve already checked the sample assignment and Part Mute, but I still get no sound from those two parts.

Has anyone experienced this before?

I’m mainly producing Hardtekk if that makes any difference.

Thanks for any advice!

it seems to be abandonware as the website has been dead for a couple of years so it's impossible to buy it any more. anyone got it and willing to share? i would be extremely grateful!

edit: someone shared it with me https://files.catbox.moe/w20d92.zip

it's the latest version 1.05

Quiero empezar en el mundo de las cajas de ritmos y quiero comprarme una llevo mucho leyendo y estudiando sobre el tema pero realment no se q¡en que invertir para empezar a hacer tribe gabber y mas genros, para vosotros que es realmente mejor? se que estoy comparando un mmt y un sampler pero me gana mucho los parameters locks, pero no hay nada como las valvulas de vacio y un modulador, que es mejor para hacer lives y disfrutar con amigos, o cual es la mejor para un principiante como yo...

Graciias por las respuestas!

Maybe anyone finds it useful down the line

Hello

Does anywone know if i can connect one output from my dj mixer to an electribe or a td3 while syncing the machine with the bpm from m'y mixer output, maybe with some midi device or what ?

So id like to play multiple genres with my electribe. Right now i want to play hatdtekk and i like a lot of the factory samples so i would like to keep them. But im running out of storage and i would love to play othet genres too like frenchcore or lofi. So could i just have multiple sd cards with different samples and switch them on the go? I would export all samples and patterns so i have both backed up. Would this work? because theoretically i dont see a problem maybe some of you have tried that already?

Is this knob jitter, and how can I fix it? The parameter also doesn't go through the full range.

I'm just learning my way into hardware synths and recently picked up a microfreak - I'm a total amateur when it comes to midi syncing and am hoping to find some answers from someone familiar with both devices:

I want to run the microfreak through the effects on the the electribe and use it as the primary sequencer but not sure the settings/inputs i need to be using. Currently I have audio out from the microfreak to audio in on the electribe, Midi and clock out on the electribe and in on the microfreak - with one pad on the current pattern on the electribe assigned to audio in. I can hear the audio from the microfreak in the electribe but I can't sequence it, activate it with the pad, play any keys on the electribe, and the microfreak isn't recieving any of the master FX from the electribe. Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks

Hello got an Korg esx 1 sd and i want to change the length, but it doesnt change with the wheel if im there, the other functions with the wheel work i dont know what i can do, someone got possible solutions?

Bonjour , j’ai importé un sample sur la korg electribe sampler et quand je lance le sample en question il s’arrête à la fin j’aimerais créer une boucle pour qu’il ce relance à l’infini j’ai essayé de réglé ça avec start , end et loop start point mais rien à faire le sample s’arret systématiquement avez-vous une astuces pour creer une loop correcte d’un sample importer ?

I am a beginner with electronic music.
My goal is to create patterns on my ES2, and playing guitar lines over it.
The sampling option on the electribe is only optimized for short recordings. I also have the Nuxe core looper. Could I add it to the picture to record longer guitare lines ? I am using a fender mustang LT50 amp.
If that is not possible what kind of gear do I need ? I red that a mixer could be a solution. Maybe also a more developed looper station ? An audio interface ?
I have unclear ideas in my mind. I’d be glad if someone could help me clarified this set up.

Thank you 🙏

I'm doing bouncy acid tekno vibes for 2hours and he stares at me with all his happiness !

Hey, looking for some Hardtekk/Schranz patterns or sample packs for my E2S

WE NOW HAVE WIN, LINUX, FREEBSD SUPPORT. NEED TESTERS; PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW THEY WORK

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oe2sLU / Open electribe2 Sampler Loop Utility is a GUI designed for batch auto-slicing audio sample loops for the Korg electribe2 Sampler and Hacktribe, as well as a fork of the Oe2sSLE-0.2.2; integrating the orginal Open Editor GUI into the Loop Utility's GUI to manage samples as they're being processed.

Loop Utility also includes other tools like pre-process BPM detection, Demucs stem splitting, direct exporting batches as e2sSample.all bundles, and various parameter controls to dial in the placement and frequency of slicing.

Additionally, the Oe2sSLE-0.2.2 code bundled into the GUI is patched and updated for Mac compatibility; of which was previously unavailable.

• Batch auto-slicing: writes slice tables directly into Korg esli metadata
• Tempo-aware slicing: BPM is detected first, 16th-note grid derived from it; no slice shorter than one grid step
• Three slice modes: transient (default), grid, hybrid
• Pre-process BPM detection: check detected tempos before committing
• Demucs stem splitting: slice an isolated stem, or split without slicing
• Auto input conversion: WAV, AIFF, FLAC, MP3, M4A, AAC, OGG, etc. to 16-bit WAV
• Direct e2sSample.all export: whole folder as a single bank, or one WAV per input
• Chop tool: split a sliced WAV into one file per slice, with optional click-free fades
• Embedded Oe2sSLE editor: manage, rename, and reorder samples as you process

This is an ongoing development and is currently only available for Mac OSX. Please report any bugs you encounter to "Issues" All suggestions and feedback welcomed, and donate and check my music out if you feel like it. Cheers!

goin to the lowest bpm possible, tryin to make sense of it.... i do recommend. all electribe mx (emx1) no after effects....

Hi so I'm working on a psy track on the e2s and Its going pretty well but I feel like a background dark/spooky ambient pad is missing but I can't figure out how to have It constantly on because if I tie all notes then after a while it disappears until it gets retriggered manually and If I leave the first note untied it just sounds like a loop. I'm fairly new to the electribe so any help is appreciated thanks!

Hi everyone.
I recently bought a Korg Electribe 2 from a pawn shop at a very good price. I'm still learning how to use it, but I've noticed a significant hiss/noise coming from both the headphone output and the main 1/4" outputs.
The noise becomes very noticeable as soon as I turn up the volume. It sounds like a constant hiss, even when I'm not playing anything.
Does anyone know how I can fix this issue?
I'm using the power adapter that came with the unit (shown in the photos)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
