KORG iELECTRIBE for iPad for Positive User Reviews
✓ Cool drum synthLink integration makes this one basically indispensable. Lots of flexibility and pattern variation available, and the effects are ace..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Great appWith an easy to use interface and a flexible system, this is a great app for coming up with drum beats and further melodies. With the use of the .wav file bounce own, dropping these beats into my favourite DAW is simple, and allows me to delve deeper into what can be achieved with just the iElectribe. Great system, that I have only just begun to scratch the surface of what can be achieved. Runs smoothly too, no lag at all. Buy..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Great app but Link doesnt work.I cannot link to Gadget, SyncKontrol or TriqTraq. The only thing I can get Link to work with is Gadget to SyncKontrol..Version: 1.7.0
✓ Un outil de créationLes possibilités de personnalisation sont à la portée de main, bravo à Korg et au travail fait sur ce petit logiciel sympa.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Maybe not the most features but so so musical!I know there are other music apps out there that offer more but the beauty of this app and the reason it gets five stars from me is the incredibly versatile results and the incredible amount of fun I'm experiencing from it. Also it's very musical-I find myself jamming with it for long periods, the interface design is second to none in terms of playability. The only problem is I want the real hardware now!!! Korg make more apps please! ;-).Version: 1.5.0
✓ FantasticWorks very well, having a smashing time playing around on it.Version: 1.5.2
✓ AmazingI honestly wasn't expecting a synth app for iPad would be any good, but I must say this is amazing! The sounds are nice and crisp and you can never repeat the same kind of beat :) it is s very good app and I would recommend it 100%. I also love the custom colors and backgrounds you can have, it allows you to express yourself very well on the interface. Many loops to work with and then all the possibilities that you have on top of that to change the tune! I would get this with no doubt :).Version: 1.5.0
✓ Good for beat making; lacks key features of the original hardwareThis app is great for beat making, especially compared to the other groove box apps out there. I was, however, slightly disappointed to find it lacked key features of the Korg Electribe hardware that it is meant to emulate. I love using the keyboard feature on my Electribe and find myself wishing I had it on the iElectribe. The lack of this feature means that you can only really make beats, since your only means for adjusting pitch is a knob. Still, it does a good job of approximating the beat production powers of the original... I just wish I could rock out on a keyboard....Version: 0
✓ Still a classic, still very usefulIElectribe is an older drum machine app, but that doesn't mean you should ignore it. Frankly, some of teh reviews slamming it for not being useful with "rock music" are ridiculous. That's like trying to use a Phillips screwdriver to spread butter on toast. It's essentially a synth drum machine that is highly tweakable. It has the straightforward drum machine interface similar to an 808, but a modern effects section that is very accessible. The M.O. with all Korg apps is that they sound great, but aren't support quite as much as they should be. That rings true with iElectribe, but it still works and produces great sounds. Another knock I've seen on iElectribe is that it doesn't have a true "kick" or bass drum. This may be true to a degree - I haven't really gotten a percussive "click" to go along with my lower frequency sounds. But the multiple synth patterns can be programmed to sound very bass drum-like, and it's really just a sound of its own. Also, I don't understand why you would need/want iElectribe to simulate what can already be done with a dozen other drum machines or samplers. For more in-depth examples of drum synthesis and sound design, check out SeekBeats or Stroke Machine. But iElectribe runs very efficiently even on older devices, and is a great rhythm machine in its own right..Version: 1.6.2
✓ Excellent app. Great fun and easy to useRuns perfectly on my iPad Air 2. I can only assume those having problems have older iPads. Works seamlessly and is great fun.Version: 1.7.1
✓ WoWWWI don't even have my iPad yet but tried it on my friends! Amazing!.Version: 0
✓ Awesome!This is easily the best music app on the iPad. I cannot believe how good this is and its soooo cheap! If you are into making beats this is a must..Version: 0
✓ Why didn’t I get this sooner?I know a lot of people probably forgot about this app or pass right by it because it’s extremely old, it doesn’t have AUV3 capabilities, and it’s pretty limited in comparison to other groovebox apps like this. That may lead some to believe this is a relic or not necessary and thus not an app worth checking out. I completely disagree. Korg has their summer sale going on so for ten dollars I finally decided to give this a try and I am NOT disappointed. I’ve seen others refer to this as a toy but that is not at all accurate. I think people forget that sometimes having a very focused, very accessible limited tool is one of the best thing for creativity. I’m having so much fun programming this and coming up with absolutely whacked out sounds, deep sub heavy bass and trippy drum grooves. This is an app I’m going to spend a lot of time really mastering because the motion recording and fx sending seem to be very rewarding. People also have this weird imaginary block now where everything has to be AUV3, but this app has IAA, which means I can still open it in AUM, feed it into Koala Sampler, chop up my performances and get even crazier results. iOS music making is like having a digital modular environment with infinite possibilities to make some really unique stuff. Sorry for the long rant but I had to give this amazing rhythm box a five star review and ask myself here in 2023 why I waited so long to cop this..Version: 1.7.3
✓ WowDownright my fave drum machine for experimental techno, noisy drum n bass, groovy weirdness, and so on..Version: 1.6.2
✓ Awesome!!!My friend owns the real one which is ESX1SD and it sounds practically the same!!! Thumbs up Korg!!!!!!.Version: 1.5.2
✓ Needs better exportingI wish this app could export loops to Dropbox and Audioshare. Though it does have Ableton Link so I can record in time loops into Ableton Live on my PC..Version: 1.7.1
✓ BenWhat can I say - having been an electribe ESX1 'techno' producer for several years I had to give this a go.. quite simply the best £8 you can spend in the App Store! however, don't expect to be mashing samples the way you do on the real red box.. instead this is an ER1, essentially - with a beautiful FM synth option.. This would get 5 stars but SC upload no longer works! :( please update! thanks.Version: 1.5.2
✓ Very neat.Running on iOS 5.1.1, 1st gen iPad. The delays are gorgeous and very flexible. The reverb, rather lofi, even trashy, but in keeping with the Electribe standard. What fascinated me the most was the range and speed of the pitch modulation... I began to get an idea of what that Frequency Modulation was all about. If I were a professor of electronic music teaching a course on synths, this app would be required study for the class. As a musician, I've been able to get very nice genre samples from it, from chiptune, 8 bit, 80s industrial, hiphop, house, etc. The pattern bouncing is great; saves me the time of editing wavs, too. Background audio feature, also, very nice. Now, two effects or more, and a chromatic synth, closer to the ESX-1 than the ER-1, and it'd be heaven. One minor bug, where a four part track overloaded on input data and dropped volume as recorded for the second half, the capacitation perhaps recorded as a motion sequence command. Carried over in copies, so had to be deleted and the parts recreated, which was most troublesome given the wide range on the pitch modulation. But, minor quibble, easy workaround..Version: 1.6.2
✓ GoodGood.Version: 1.6.1
✓ IncredibleJust DL'd this a few hours ago and I have no clue where the time went. I have practically no experience with step synths, yet it was extremely easy for me to load up some of the pre-made samples and very quickly understand how the process works. I'm shocked at how much this program does for what it costs (especially when there are just mixers out there going for easily double to 5x's the price of this one!). If you're even remotely interested in buying this app, DON'T HESITATE! There's a reason this thing is 95% 5 star ratings..Version: 0
✓ Sounds greatReally intuitive app to use for beginners, the effect editing gives you loads of options to get experimental with your drum patterns. Programming drum patterns and Recording automation is really easy. The sounds you get are really nice and easy to sculpt into the exact type of sound you want. I'm using quite an old iPad and haven't experienced any glitches or crashes etc...it's a shame that you have to buy the app again if you want it on your iPhone but other than that the app is brilliant..I'm really loving all the korg apps at the mo.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Professional level app at amateur priceI've written about this app before, and every time I give a review for a new version, I keep adding additional praise. Why? Korg keeps updating this already full-featured masterpiece. What is iElectribe? It's a great way to experiment with beats. You can come up with some impressive dance beats ranging in style from hip hop to techno, and yes, if you know what you're doing you can even program in a waltz! What else is it? A live performance tool, with easy to use controls that are made even easier if you hook up a compatible midi device to your iPad. As if that weren't enough, you can actually write a full song in the app. Granted, you won't be writing your next opera in this program, but you can actually come up with something approaching album-ready if you are so inclined. In short, the iElectribe app is platform for experimenting in music in ways that you may or may not have tried before. For the price, it's a steal. Yes, it lacks the ability to record or import your own samples, but that's really the only flaw I can think of..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Not bad drum machineA solid drum machine could do with ... Being an mx instead of an r. Midi link up and control to hardware mx or other electribes..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Beau -- tiful..Version: 0
✓ Phatness IncarnateI am totally blown away at how good this app is. For many years wanted an Electribe, but never had enough coin to blow on it back then. Now I have it on my iPad for the cost of a pint and a half of beer. Korg! You and your software engineers totally get iPad and what it means. Kudos to you all. The UX in this app is spot on. I only hope for a per voice swing control and a help manual that lives in device in future updates..Version: 0
✓ Almost brilliantIt would get five stars and total brilliance if it didn't keep crashing each time I called up Help..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Great drum machine but....Sounds are awesome! But needs a note sequencer for the synth and song mode. Otherwise I would rate 5 stars..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Not badHey I find this handy bit of software ok unless type of sounds created.Version: 1.6.3
✓ PerfectI couldn't be happier with this app. I own the ER-1 and have toyed around with my friend's ES-1. Was meaning to buy the newer EMX-1 but felt the price was a bit too high for me. I love that I can chose which drum sound & steps the effects are applied too. Thought the knobs would be tough to operate, but they aren't. The sounds are highly customizable and almost limitless, and the interface is super easy to use overall. In my opinion, it's well worth the price considering the hardware version goes for $400+ (they're not identical, but show me something like this app that lets you tweak pitch, waveforms, mod speed depth & form, and offers several different effects...).Version: 1.5.2
✓ Fantastic app.. but please add Copy/paste!Perfect app except for lack of Copy. Would love to be able to export this into other apps like Multitrack DAw without having to resort to my computer..Version: 0
✓ Very nice, almost there.First of all, I want to clear up the misconception that this is an exact replica of a hardware Electribe. It is definitely not. It is missing MANY features of the hardware Electribes, the latest models anyway: 3 available FX, 16 types of Synth Oscillators, Keyboard mode, note assignment, a larger sample library, Arpeggiator, and many more. I mention all of this not to bash the iElectribe, but only to save some the disappointment of discovering certain features are missing. With that out of the way I must say that this is truly a great app. It's fun, sounds really good, and is capable of producing some very satisfying end results. What would make it a 5 star app for me would be the ability to import samples, and allowing note/pitch assignment per step. Creating melodic lines via Motion Seq is not very easy if you're trying to reproduce something you're hearing in your head. I waited to buy the app until it went back on sale for $10, it's a must buy at that price. At $20....hmmm, now that I've owned it I'd say, sure, pull the trigger. :).Version: 1.1.1
✓ Just amazing!!!Didn't even think about the music possibilities of the iPad, until I tried this, wow!!!.Version: 0
✓ Pretty good but an export function and multi iPad sync would make it the best!Imagine if two or more people could wirelessly sync their iPads while running the iELECTRIBE app and/or other music making apps. You could have a whole band of iPads! It would also be very useful to be able to export patterns and performances as an audio file such as AAC, AIFF, WAV, MP3, Apple Lossless, etc. As is, it is a very cool app. Much cooler than the hardware Electribes. But the above mentioned enhancements would make it the ultimate and certainly make the iPad that much cooler. If i didn't already have one I would buy an iPad just for that capability..Version: 0
✓ Korg rocksToday I DLed this app into my pad; I must say that this is awesome. it Is a very functional step sequencer with built in effects and a flexible sequencing system. I thought this app was extremely stable. It doesn't really feel like you are running software. It feels like you are using a real Korg instrument. I would highly recommend this product for anyone interested developing musical ideas and creating electro/hiphop. If you have little or no experience with step sequencing, it comes with plenty of material to get started with. Kinda like a launch pad for your musical inspiration. Otherwise it's easy to start from scratch. I was excited when I heard about this app, and I wasn't dissapointed..Version: 0
✓ Fantastic.Korg, this app is an amazing thing. It's absolutely perfect for the iPad. It's as close to the real thing as you can get, and sou ds great. I also love being able to customize the background and paint, nice touch. Two things I desperately want to see (other than more Korg devices turned into apps) is export and full song sequencing. For now, setting up patterns to trigger is fine, but can't wait for the next step. Serious musicians and wannabe's: fork over the cash and buy this quality instrument..Version: 0
✓ Was a great contender...now falling behind...It's pretty simple. You're getting a very good quality, expensive drum machine by a highly trusted company with a stellar rep, for pennies compared to it's real world counter part. But for some reason It just falls a little short of perfection. As others pointed out its missing some critical features. So I won't be a parrot and repeat those, and just say they are valid gripes. Today with all the new drum machines being released with increasingly powerful sound engines, quality audio, and loaded features, it's hard to tell anyone to buy this relatively expensive crum machine first. Yes, buy it, but there are actually some better options on iOS now that (gulp) beat iElectribe on many levels for far less money. Korg really needs to take a hard look at this, and make some improvements. The competitions heating up big time..Version: 1.5.1
✓ ChicoWould be nice if there were updates like a beat pad and more samples.Version: 1.6.2
✓ It is an iPad app Rate it for that!This app is fantastic and is the software version of a hardware device that used to cost several hundred dollars. Kudos to Korg. Are you listening Roland and Yamaha? If you want some gritty analogue beats, don't wait. Buy it now! This won't work on an iPhone..Version: 0
✓ 🤩 🤯🎵Got some ooggy boogy for my KORG!This is without a doubt an almost perfect Korg iOS system. So much stuffed into this system its like a new play land all the time. A new world opens a door to another room and then another dimension, then Bob Moog walks in and starts tuning in the parts that need shaken with those warm tubes and oscillators. Jam Hammer, and Alan Parson breezes through for a jam. Its like am old jammer mixed into one beat machine. And then I can play it as a synth. Thank you. 🙏🤧🙏.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Can be a little glitchyOverall I like this but there have been times it seems to cut off at the end of a bar, then I have to restart my iPad. It does sound great, and you can make some killer loops with it..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Epic WinHow the heck Korg pulled this off at launch is beyond me, they must have been one of the companies that got demo units. Multitouch implementation is perfect, sound is awesome, app is stable, and performance seems too good to be true. The only problem I had was a split-second audio dropout when using the browser instead of the wheel to change patches, but I am sure that is trivial to fix. Music app devs take notice, Korg has set the bar unreachably high with this one..Version: 0
✓ Far better than any othersI am not an expert of any kind when it comes to music creation/production, but I have a huge interest in it and have tried out nearly every music creation app for the ipad. This one is honestly the first one that I didn't delete after an hour wishing there were more features. It's honestly as close as you can get to the real Electribe hardware, very few differences (other than the whole touch screen aspect).Version: 0
✓ AmazingKa mau te wehi....great tool...good fun....search google for manual! AT.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Easy and funNothing too serious, just mess around and make grooves. Way easier to get to grips with than the iMS20.Version: 0
✓ Love it, but too expensiveI love playing with this app. I love noodling with groovebox style machines and this is a very satisfying experience. The sounds are unique and usable in a dance/techno setting. The only problem is that it is a little bit too faithful of a recreation in my opinion. I would have liked to see the ability to bend pitches to exact notes for playing bass lines or melodies. The demos show that this is possible, but there isn't any easy way of doing it yourself. The price tag is a little steep too. After having it for about two months, I still love it, but don't feel it was worth the $20. That said, this is a worthwhile app and I admit even $20 is better than spending $200 on a used one..Version: 1.6.0
✓ AmazingThis app is quite possibly the best music app I have ever played! It was also very clever to think of making this app. Easy to use, and easy to take out with you. I just hope they make a korg kaoss pad too then link them together..Version: 0
✓ IPad version of something the iPad should render obsolete!It's a well re-created version of some (recent) vintage hard gear. The attention to detail is great and Korg is to be commended for bringing this and the MS20 to iOs. That said, in each case, the device being modelled, while great hardware for its time, is also limited by virtue of its time. It's something odd for the iPad and its elegant touch interface to be used to emulate something that is so abstruse. 4 stars because the app execution is generally fantastic ... that said, given the ready availability of more contemporary, more robust, more user friendly alternatives - I doubt I'll find much use for this!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great appThanks for the fixes, I can't wait to put this to use again..Version: 1.6.3
✓ It's RAD!If you're at all into music or synths you MUST BUY THIS! Korg has a history of making great products and this thing is just the cutting edge!.Version: 0
✓ AwesomeIt really is that simple, this is awesome, lacking a couple of features like note input, if they add that it is on par with my hardware Electribes !.Version: 1.7.1
✓ FunA fun to use app but whenever I hook it up to my main system (as I do with all my other music apps) it sounds very... Erm... Empty. Could be something I'm doing wrong though..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Great AppThis is still one of my favorite iPad music apps and I've had it since day one. Very fun to use. Would LOVE to be able to load my own samples. The gorillas version came out loaded with their copyrighted samples which I was hoping could be switched for my own but that doesn't look like the case. It's really just an unusable gorillas promo since they own anything you make on it. How about improving this one for us unknown musicians instead of giving the gorillas their own new toy next time?.Version: 1.5.0
✓ KorgThis app is great for dj's and music creators i found this app very easy to use and self explanitory.Version: 1.5.1
✓ SickNano studio is sub par to this. Why the he'll would anyone expect this to export to nano studio??.Version: 1.5.0
✓ AwesomeWorks well with my korg fm volca and po-14.Version: 1.7.1
✓ No updateI'm using ISO 8.2 and still no update from 7.12 please let us have one such a good app to let go..Version: 1.6.2
✓ Amazing!This is money well spent in my humble opinion. Great, easy to use software that is very versatile. Create your own beats or make a mashup of the ones that are pre-loaded. Fun for the whole family!.Version: 0
✓ Best copy/exportI love using this app to create my drum beats and then exporting them as wave files into my iPad Daw. I especially love that my patterns remain in the Electribe library for me to grab into my project anytime I need it. Love this app..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Great! +You can export with Audacity!This application is just wonderful! So addicting, and just like the original Electribe-R! Most bad reviews are because you cant export, but you can! Just not through iTunes. Get a regular 3.5mm aux cable and connect your iPad to the input on your computer, open up Audacity (free program-search online), make sure the input in audacity is set to your computer's input (not "mic"), start the beat on your iPad and hit record! Then export as mp3/WAV/Ogg/etc.! Now you have your very own beat on your computer! It's simple and works like a charm! Thanks Korg and Apple!.Version: 0
✓ A korg gadget?For iPhone/iPad would be nice :).Version: 1.7.1
✓ Great! But wish it had more fx optionsIf you are at all familiar with step sequencers then you should be able to figure this out within a couple of hours. Very intuitive and excellent for quick beat making. It's surprisingly versatile but for some reason you can only run 1 effect at a time and so you can't independently route fx to different channels. That is kind of annoying considering that the iPad is more than capable of pulling this off and it would really add to the sound customization options. Still for what you get it is exceptional and for making beats and exporting to your computer, other apps, or soundcloud, etc..Version: 1.5.2
✓ WonderfulAn astounding app for iPad! The beatbox is great quality being digital.Version: 1.5.1
✓ StunningGreat recreation of a fantastic drum machine for the ipad. Everything works just as you would expect. The valves are very realistic too and add a lot of warmth and character to the sound. Automation too on the knobs has been implemented very well indeed. Top marks.Version: 0
✓ Sympathizer for the SynthesizerMy First Paid App had to be a colossal-mega wise epic purchase and this was IT! Let your musical talent shine with this App on your new iPad! I'm no expert to the synthesizer and all that jazz (or is it all that 'techno'?) but this app is so easy for it's basic layout with simple intuitive functions; it's just as if you were holding the actual instrument. This is so simple and yet the possibilities are so much more. This is coming from someone who has very little to almost no music background. Don't let the simplicity discourage the actual knowledgeable synth-veterans, there are plenty of options and tweaks which I'm sure will surprise even the advanced users. This can be for anyone who shows the slightest interest in music from; a kid who just wants to listen to beats while throwing in their 2 cents of a drum beat here and a little snare over there; to an expert creating their next live performance using this app!.Version: 0
✓ The first app I downloaded on my new iPadI'd been wanting an electribe for years, and discovering this app was the event that eventually convinced me to buy an iPad at all. It was the first thing I downloaded, and I've been in love ever since. I'm very unexperienced with digital music production, and in fact had no idea how to run an electribe until I got this app. The leaning curve is easy, however, and it's more fun than I can believe. I promise, you won't regret this one. I mean, it's a $400 dollar piece of equipment for 10 bucks. What could be better? And to the person above who was so desperate to know how to make it play more than just the first step, I've got a solution for you. I couldn't figure it out either, and it was driving me crazy. It's the "length" slider under "settings." It's adjustable from one to four, which effects how many sets of steps are played. Hope that saves you the couple of hours of forum-hopping it took me to figure that one out! This is an awesome app, everyone. Worth far more than it costs (as years of high electribe demand has proven), and wonderfully made! You won't regret it, I promise!!!.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Excellent!A lot of features on this app. All new to me! Had a rhythm machine for over 30 years, this is something aaaahhh, let's say creative. A lot of unimaginable features ( 80's) totally incredible! A fantastic tool if you want to extend your sound palette, or if like me you switch it on through an amp and jam alongside! Yeah, whatever's, it's not bad and the price is let's say "reasonable" This from a guy who had to save up about 3 weeks to get a "drum machine" in 1984. That was bloody good too, mind! 21st Century boy!.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Pretty good!Love playing with this app! Going to take a while to get used to it, and some form of miniature tutorial would be nice, but apart from that, should go great with my CDJ's to bring out some decent tunes :).Version: 0
✓ IOS grows upKorg have really put mobile music apps amongst the pigeons with their latest releases. AudioBus, background audio, virtual MIDI all gift-wrapped around some of the most powerful, fantastic sounding apps around. This is pure brilliance and I love it :-).Version: 1.6.0
✓ Now working in iOS 8Little bit late to the party, but at least it's working again..Version: 1.6.3
✓ No words...You have to have this app if you even have just an inkling of who KORG is. Serious entertainment that gives as much as it takes..Version: 0
✓ So good liveCan not overstate the incredible live applications of this, particularly when used as a synthesizer ala Squarepusher..Version: 0
✓ Superb.Being a previous owner of the hardware equivalent this is a 99% replacement for about 2% of what I paid for the box. Korg are doing the business!.Version: 1.1.1
✓ 🔥🔥🔥🔥This app is amazing.Version: 1.7.3
✓ Awesome and highly recommended. Love it :DGet this if you like tweaking and creating electro/glitch sounds.Version: 1.5.2
✓ Back to the old skoolFor all of you vintage sound buffs out there, this app faithfully reproduces the sounds of the original korg er-1 rhythm synth. (I know, i have the original) Meant to accompany beat oriented music, hundreds of patterns are made available in various genres of music, dub step dnb, house etc. Right away it is easy to start a jam and get some funky loops going, and with practice, using the record motion feature, the synth sounds can gain some life. However, the controls are slightly bulky, and due to the classic arrangement to visualize it the way the old drum machine was, it is somewhat harder to sequence because not all parts are visible at once. If I had any recommendations for ielectribe, i would request an extra page as a basic step sequencer, and support to allow for syncing with other midi programs through osc. Other than that, the team at korg has done a bang up job as usual, their fx and support have consistently been above par. For 19.99, (9.99 on sale temp right now) vs the 600$ the original unit was worth, it's money well spent. Thanks again Mad Skillz Matti.Version: 0
✓ Yep, it's that goodI've been trying to hold off for a couple of weeks now, but I finally broke down and bought this app. Oh man, it's definitely 10 times better than I was hoping it would be. First off, sound quality is mind-blowing. I put on my big sony headphones and yeah.....awesome. Secondly, the controls are great. Totally easy to just jump in and start playing around. Thirdly, you can change the background to a custom image using photos from you iPad library. Wow. They even let you tweak the colors of the fonts. I could play with it for hours just visually. Anyway, I'm excited, and I can't believe an iPad can run something like this. It's as smooth as butter though. Crazy..Version: 0
✓ IT'S SO EASY!!!!!!I really love this app because it's so simple. Even if you have never had any experience in any kind of music or synth you will immediately catch on on how to do this. Oh and I can see why you say it "has been coveted by dance musicians for ten years and running" because it's the best dance beat maker on the app store! But I must say that after a while it does get a little old because it is so easy, so every update with new features is much appreciated..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Almost thereThis is a good drum machine which sounds great. But to get five stars it needs an update for virtual midi and to allow it to work in the background to sync with other apps..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Great APP!This app is awesome! you have a limited amount of sound obv. but the controllability is amazing and its great on the go! Sync it up with the Ikaosscilator and you can make some interesting stuff. Plug it into your DAW to record or export as wav! awesome tool.Version: 1.5.2
✓ The real thingIt's apps like this that make me glad I bought an iPad--it really shows off the power of this tiny computer and the competency of Korg's developers. I used to own a first-generation ER, an EA, and an ES. I wasn't sure what to expect from this app, but the accuracy of the model is amazing. This is an instrument, not a toy. The one thing that's missing is a means to sync the app with other devices, like a MIDI over IP implementation. For the price, I can't ask for anything more. This is going to be a great tool for working out ideas and experimental compositions. I hope to see more Korg hardware ports and/or original iPad synths in the future!.Version: 0
✓ Solid, creativeHave used the app for a few years. It’s solidly reliable, has some great sounds and enough editing options to keep you happy..Version: 1.7.2
✓ GreatAwsome app loving it so easy to use with a great database of sounds ,you will fill like orbital in a matter of seconds this is a must buy !!!.Version: 0
✓ Now with midi syncNow with midi sync it is a completely awesome drum machine with ok presets and great creative possibilities. Totally worth the money..Version: 1.2.0
✓ Unbreakable!Reliable and great sounding drum machine app. After testing all of the meaningful drum machine apps in App Store this one is winner..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Love It!I own both an Electribe EM1 and ES1 and it's amazing how close they made this app to mimic the real thing. In some ways, I actually like this more than the physical product. All of the features are solid and easy to use. Tweaking sounds is both fun and intuitive, and even though the you're stuck with just a few stock sounds, you can tweak them to just about any sound you want. This program requires some patience and time if you're not familiar with the Electribe products; however for me, it was pretty easy just to dive on in. It's easy to use on the surface, but there is a lot going on here if you want to get technical. The only thing I would like to add to it is a sampler. That would put this app on a whole new level. IMO this app was more than I was hoping for, and Korg really put out a topnotch product..Version: 1.6.2
✓ Great, but needs "Motion Value" SettingsThis is great, but it would be fantastic if you could edit the pitch of individual steps for a part. Then you could use the synth parts so much more effectively. At the moment all you can do is adjust the pitch dial, but it's impossible to set exact pitches for each step. You can do this on my Electribe ES1 and it's called "Motion Value"..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Great!Much more editing capabilities than many of the sample based drum machine apps that are quite common, although the filter is strangely located in the EFX. Won't stop using my ESX anytime soon, but this is a welcome addition. Would love to see MIDI out so I could sequence longer patterns to my volcas ;).Version: 1.6.3
✓ Great but Korg needs to update their appsKorg, you make great apps. But please don’t abandon them. Even just a tiny refresh in resolution and AUE would make us synth tokers and beat addicts so happy..Version: 1.7.3
✓ FantasticThis is the sort of app that makes owning an iPad really worthwhile. I've never played with the original Electribe, but this reproduction is good fun and sounds amazing. Thanks Korg..Version: 0
✓ Electribe!!!!!One of the first apps I brought for the iPad. The program is sensational and could easily be plugged for a live set. The learning curve is reasonable and Logic/Ableton people out there will love this. Can't say enough good things about this app! Think I will go make some beats now! You need this in your life if you are serious about electronic music!!!!!.Version: 0
✓ Fantastic Even for NewbiesI've always been a musician, but have only recently gotten into electronic music. I bought this on a whim, and I have to say, I've been hugely impressed. This is definitely a ton of fun, but also extremely useful as an actual instrument. Definitely 5 stars! Oh, and everyone is lamenting a lack of song recording or export options, but under "settings" there is an option to record your music, which is saved as a ".wav" file. Not sure if that is what everyone is looking for but it is sufficient for my needs! Keep more Korg apps coming!.Version: 0
✓ Wicked!This app is really amazing and a total blast! I had been eyeing it since it came out, and made the purchase of an iPad mostly to have an Electribe with me on the road. I have an EMX-1 (hardware) and think this is a wonderful and exceedingly faithful adaptation. I don't have any complaints. Can't wait to see the possibilities once multitasking hits the iPad. My only suggestion is the addition of a ribbon controller and a slider. With those two features, this Electribe will be unstoppable. Korg love your work. Thanks so much for creating the iElectribe. Keep the electronic instruments coming!.Version: 0
✓ TremendousThis has to be the future! Music making will never be the same again and this type of app is already changing the way musicians can work. Buy it!.Version: 0
✓ Swicthed Hardware for iPadI recently sold my hardware Electribes (EA1, ER1, and ES1) just so I could afford to buy an iPad and get the iElectribe software. It offered me more mobile flexability and the power of a softsynth with the touch of hardware. I do not in any way regret my decision. Yes TECHNICALLY this only really replaced my hardware ER1, but other apps do a decent job of the rest and WHO KNOWS maybe KORG will release the EA, ES, or more likely the EM as an App. They just release the MS-20 and together with this App they are amazing. Instead of the song editor on the hardware which I rarely used, now I bounce my patterns and export them to my PC DAW where I do the finishing. I could however just bounce them right back into the iPad and finish on StudioHD or one of the other multitrack apps. GREAT job KORG. Please keep up the great work. If you make it I'll buy it at this rate..Version: 0
✓ Simply BrilliantI've been looking for a software drum machine that supports MIDI clock sync to link up to my Roland SH201 synth (using iRig Midi). This is a brilliant piece of software that as far as I can make out is virtually identical to its 'physical' namesake, the Electribe, for £100s less! Beats and synth arpeggiator are nicely in time, tempo controlled from the SH201. It rocks..Version: 1.6.1
✓ Limited, but groovy!Relative to the price of the standalone hardware version, this is a steal. But electro musicians new to the Electribe experience might be a little confused by the hype. This is a very basic groove box with additional knobs on. Literally. No arranger or song facility. Just grooves. You can switch between patterns as you tweak during playback, but you can't schedule different grooves in a pattern. The one star losing bug that really annoys is that when you switch the sound you are editing the new sound is triggered, often ruining the feel of the loop..Version: 1.1.1
✓ FantasticCan't justify spending the money on the real thing. At my level of capability, this is all I need for buckets of entertainment. This is a benchmark application!.Version: 0
✓ Excellent drum machineThis rhythm machine offers some innovative sound synthesis opportunities, and effects (delay, reverb...), well worth a look..Version: 1.6.2
✓ So much fun and so easy to useI have had it on my new ipad (a great buy also!) for this afternoon and it is addictive. Fun, easy to use, HUGE sound and really great features. The tone and FX edit, changing patterns on the fly, muting and unmuting of parts - all easy and visually intuitive. I've never seen anything so fast to understand and so deep in making dance music. Is it for jazz and classical people? Nope, but if you want some deep low down and dirty grooves that are fast to develop and fun to play with, this is your app. And the fact that so many variables are real time control (all recordable) make it organic too. Sorry for the gushing, this is just causing us so many smiles right now!!.Version: 0
✓ Love itFun retro box for making beats for jamming and recording..Version: 1.7.1
✓ Great soundsWhile it is missing some really useful features such as some form of notes for the pitch dial, there is no doubt that this is one really solid app. Great sounds, lots of twiddling and adjustment and a pretty good pattern player makes this a fun app to while away an afternoon on. I am not sure any serious muso would perform live with this tool but bedroom tech heads will love it..Version: 0
✓ Amazing.Absolutely amazing app. Korg really "gets it" and if you ever found yourself wondering what "it" is, just look at this beautifully crafted app. In addition to enabling the iPad to do what hundreds of dollars worth of music hardware will get you, Korg's iElectric is responsive, intuitive, inspirational and even pretty to look at. When you're not playing with this for hours on end at a bandmate's house, this app will have you plugging your iPad in the studio for late night sessions. iElectric is also structured for live performances. Korg, keep up the awesome effort. I will buy anything this good in a heartbeat, it's worth twice the price!.Version: 0
✓ A great programmable drum machine!I've had hours of fun programming this brilliant little app,it's worth every penny if you want an intuitive programmable drum machine with flexible editable sounds and FX, if you haven't tried it yet, what are you waiting for? It's a very close model of the hardware electribe.Version: 1.6.3
✓ Awesome sound, easy to useI bought iElectribe with high expectations and I'm very happy to say that it's met them with great success. This is one of the best instruments available on the app store. Huge amounts of customizations and limitless possibilities. The help file documentation and introduction video will have you running this thing with ease in under an hour. If I had to share any gripes about the app, the only thing I'd ask for improvement on would be the ability for multiple effects channels. I'd like to send different samples to different effects to maximize the potential of the iElectribe. Thanks for putting this app out Korg!.Version: 0
✓ Whomever implemented the Flutter.......please fix it so it is possible to go back and forth between patterns. As it is, it is virtually impossible to move the flutter point away and then restore the previous position. It is all chance and randomness. So in many ways useless, but does not have to be. Just create a proper grid pattern that lights up the spot that is activated. Or something similar. I'm sure the people at korg can figure out something better. Thank you! Otherwise great app..Version: 1.6.3
✓ WOW!!!Unbelievable!!! I have had this app for most of this week and i think i'm still only scratching the surface with it's potential. There is so much to master with this. If you want an app for longitivtiy buy this one its well worth it. My mate just bought a Korg deck and screamed when he saw this app because its identical and $550 cheaper!!! ENJOY.Version: 0
✓ Korg electribeHad this app from the very start it has always been stable never crashed since my first iPad that was the 1st gen and early iOS in all its an app you can trust and that's really rare on music apps on iOS platform, if I could whisk for one thing on this app and that's midi mapping!!!!!!.Version: 1.7.1
