Thank you so much!! Excellent vídeo! Helped me a lot!!

So basic and so effective ! thank a lot !

Great video showing how these two can be play together in different ways. I recently got an ES2 and my Roland SH-01A hasn't been getting much attention because I really like the synths on the ES2 and I also wanted to learn this one first. I can't wait to do more experiments with them soon, thanks for the inspiration!

After watching your tutorial I decided to do the same and feed the audio out from my Roland SE-02 into my Korg Electribe 2 Music Production, and connected the sync output from the Korg into the SE-02, so I was running a sequence on the Roland and drums on the Korg. Great being able to use the reverb in the Korg. Next I plan to use midi out from the Korg into the SE-02 so everything can be sequenced from the Korg. Interesting times.

Electribe 2 ok packs a lot of excellent quality KORG features from the sq1 and kaos pad into such a usable package with nice internal sounds not cringeworthy or noisy patches.

Muito bom obrigado

So I learnt a nice little trick from your volca step trigger video earlier and created something real nice using that. I use an electribe sampler as a sequencer and you've just shown me something else I didn't know about that(routing it back in to the audio input and using the effects on it). You really are a great source of knowledge for a novice. Your opinion would be helpful if you have one. I have a minilogue, was the first 'proper' synth I bought, had it about 4 months but I'm not sure it's for me. I was going to get the se-02 but went for the minilogue as it had a keyboard(even though I have no real keyboard skills!). I'm thinking I'm gonna sell my minilogue and buy either an se-02 or maybe an sh-01A, I'm into techno/electro/house, any views would be helpful.

adamoliver82 Yeah, man! The Electribe is actually a really powerful tool. I love it! I think the SH01a would be great. It has the polyphonic mode so you won't miss out on playing chords, plus it is a much cheaper price tag. You will probably have some money left over. Lol On the other hand, the SE-02 is a remarkable synth and although it can play chords, it is still capable of creating some amazing sounds. I love my SE-02. I definitely think it has been one of my best purchases to date. It is a tiny powerhouse! :) Ps. Sorry for the late reply.

Awesome video, super well explained and easy to follow.. one thing though is that I cannot for the life of me get my pads on the Electribe to act as keys for my synth (microbrute) quite sure ive followed you steps exactly and everything else works as it should, I just can’t get my pads to act as a keyboard.. only thing I can think is that the microbrute only has midi in not out..? Or am I missing something?

hey man. really appreciate you putting in the time to make this. great video. Question for you; once you bring in the external synth and sequence it, can you export that part as well when you're exporting to als or do you route that separate?

I had some trouble yesterday doing this. Got the audio in. Hooked up the midi out from my electribe to the midi in on my Roland boutique. The electribe played the Roland sound but it also played the midi sequence from the Roland. Can't figure why it did that.

You gave me bro the idea now Hi recently got Korg Electribe 2, I want to play along with Yamaha PSR S950 Style in Yamaha keyboard speakers Yamaha has AUX IN, should I still MIDI OUT from Yamaha to Electribe IN can you please help me to connect it and if you can do a video about that which will be beneficial for the people like me who are new in MIDI environment please keep do in more God bless

Hi thanks for this video! But I have a question, I did everything you did but when I play my synth there's a slight jump between steps 12 and 13..?

Question Peeps, before i try and blow up my electribe, Can I send audio out from my electribe into the EHX superego (freeze pedal) back into the electribe (onto a different pad) to use the LFO and then back out to speakers? Basically i want the freeze pedal to be modulated.OR is there a better way? Obviously i guess the answer is to just try it but i thought I'd ask first.

Hello, thank for the video. I have a question about audio input. Does electribe cut the input sound when changing the preset? This is to use a continuous audio source during a performance.

I need help with my électribe and volca bass how can i play both of the on one speaker ?

the audio in on the new ones is now where near as exciting as the red and blue 1. i also wet my self whilst writing this as i was never told if its wrong or right to do that to yourself

Can I use multiple synth into Audio In? Do the IFXs remain splitted on each external synth?

Are you running a trs headphone jack wire from the headphone jack of the SE-02 into the E2? What is the blue wire that you are using and what is the input slot being used on both machines? I know that the E2 is audio in, but what are you using for the SE-02? And if you don't mind what cord and output are you using to get the sound from the E2 out into the speaker you are playing? Is a headphone jack just as good as input/output on synths? Thanks

Still love your channel. Been watching for years now! Have you figured a way to silence the internal synth on a channel so only external midi plays? When I try this with my blofeld it turns the level down on it too.

You have to have a continuous midi note, to active this press record then hold down the pad you’ve assigned audio in to. Keep the pad held down until after the last bar, hit the record button again to stop recording and then release your finger from the pad. R beny did a tutorial on continuous notes and drones

Interruptions are caused by note length(s) not being set to TIE. Shift + pad 12 is the shortcut to the step editor.

Hey! No problem! Thanks for watching. 🙂 I am not familiar with the Behringer Crave... but if you are simply trying to get them to play together with a synced tempo, you will most likely just use the MIDI OUT of the Electribe into the MIDI IN of the Crave. The Crave might be set to run on its internal clock by default, so you will need to set it to receive an external MIDI clock. If you are trying to get both of them to play out of a single set of speakers or headphones: you will need an audio mixer to combine the 2 audio output signals OR you can feed the Craves audio into the AUDIO IN of the Electribe; which will allow you to hear both devices from a single audio output. Hope all this makes some sense.

+FUNKBEAST HI! Well, you can't necessarily record the external sounds into the Electribe... you can only sequence the external gear. Select a "part"/pad. Each pad sends data on individual channels. So pad 1 = channel 1, pad 2 = channel 2, etc, etc. Set your external synth to match the part/pad that you want and then make sure you set the oscillator Type to "audio in". If you still don't hear anything... make sure to use the oscillator edit knob to increase the gain. You should be able to play the pads in keyboard mode and hear the external synth. Once it's all setup to play via keyboard mode... You can then input and record your sequence and it will play the external synth via the sequencer. Hope this makes sense. I may do in depth video on how to sequence External gear. So stay tuned. :)

@littleBIGsynths

5 жыл бұрын

Interesting question. As far as the pedal board is concerned, I'm not sure how you would or what you would achieve by doing this. Do you possibly mean running the Electribe through your pedal board to use the effects? The Electribe might not have enough gain to push a mic into a decent volume... but if it did... you would still need a microphone that has a 1/4" cable with a 3.5mm adapter in order to get the signal into the E2 to begin with. An alternative approach would be to run microphone into a mixer that has preamps and phantom power, and then run the "tape out" signal into the E2. This will ensure that the mic at least has enough power going into the E2. Just make sure to keep an eye on the "clipping" indicator to make sure the signal is not overwhelming the E2. Hope some of this info could be useful. Thanks for watching

+Christian Kenne Alright, I'll try and break it down. To get started, set your synth or keyboard to MIDI channel 1. Make sure the output from your device is connected to the input of the electribe. On the electribe: select pad 1. Press record and then using the "keyboard" mode, play any note. (Hold that note for the entire duration of 16 steps. *if you go to "sequencer mode, you should see all of the steps lit up. At this point you should have a single sustained note. Now change the oscillator type to "audio in thru". Now you want to play some notes on your synth/keyboard and look to see if you can see any activity in the electribe lcd display. You should see a audio level indicator. Using the oscillator "edit" knob, increase the gain to hear the incoming audio. At this point, you should have incoming audio on part 1/pad 1. You should be able to now apply master and insert fx to the incoming audio. I hope this all made sense and works out for you. Let me know. :)

when i comnect two instruments to sequence them on different channel and also audio from them to input in electribe it messes up melodie like when i play one synth it triggers other.it doesnt happen when i dont connect to audio in.

Doesn't work for me with my microfreak 😕

But you have a gate on/off after every 16th step. So you can not really have a drone or pad without a short break. So for me this is not working.

I dont get the point of Sample 17 Audio In Mn...Your video was great. However is it not possible to record that way? Like nothing you played could be recorded or saved without sampling as you regularly would.

This is the synth version of the electribe. There are no sampling capabilities on this version. The external audio input is simply used for processing audio (filter, FX, etc) You can not record any external sounds... but you can create and store sequences that can control external gear. Sequencing, in combination with the audio input, can be very fun and really useful. 👍 Hope I didnt stay too far from your question. 🙂
