I have a hardware emx and this app is pretty similar in workflow However the app is mainly a drum machine I can t imagine syncing this to my hardware for serious Changing patterns is a bit shady as it will switch on just about any beat Perhaps there are better pattern change options but I only use this for fun as a stress reliever For that it is perfect But I would only buy it on sale                 Fun but more of a toy Pearlsnaredrummet77

Works well with my korg fm volca and po 14                     Awesome oscarxsu

Fun retro box for making beats for jamming and recording                     Love it keaiwa488

I love Korg Their products are great Their synth apps rock This app is a toy It needs a serious revamp and better hardware implementation It is not usable to a discerning musician     Save up for ispark Gnarl10000

Having Ableton link bought this app back from the dead now it s not working and this app is dead to me again please fix it asap     PLEASE FIX ABLETON LINK Strizbiz

Pros Generally easy to work with after a bit of a learning curve Learning curve should be mostly nonexistent for owners of hardware Elektribe units Fun to tweak Useful for creation of drum noise loops Cons Not a universal app Korg is double dipping with the iPad and iPhone versions of this software Yes the GUI on each device is ideally suited to that device but there s no reason why they couldn t have done that in a universal app 20 is a bit much for what it does in comparison to what other apps can get you for the same outlay of cash I bought it on 50 off sale and would advise anyone else to do the same Lacks IAA transport controls This is a problem on ALL Korg apps Poor MIDI support No easy data exchange backup Fiddly controls A problem on most Korg apps especially Gadget             Limited but can be fun for 50 off dysamoria

If you update I will add more stars to my review Abandonware     UPDATE THIS PLEASE Opie620

Great una de mis favoritas app                     Genial Drum machine Yayo3000

I know ielectribe had sample part selection before they released the gorillaz version What happened why did KORG do this Does anyone out there still have it on an old device Over the years KORG has shot me in the heart many times First it was this then the broken snare on the volca beats The shotty build quality of the NanoKey Studio Buggy and missing features in the electribe sampler KORG has been evil in their business tactics I just don t believe KORG really cares anymore     ielectribe once had sample selection What happened dynamiczeal

I 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                 Needs better exporting johnnyboy5000

Sounds are awesome But needs a note sequencer for the synth and song mode Otherwise I would rate 5 stars                 Great drum machine but Hamilton.ross

only add a picture or change the print color AND they had the nerve to bring it to the iPhone without making it universal Way to scam your customers Korg     Can t Change the Background Color Anymore S. L. Biggs

Really powerful app with tons of presets and versatility Check out the midi designer template made for it                     So great peanutbutterkiller

Immediate crash at start up Waited a couple of weeks for an update deleting this expensive waste of space Dang it I tried to not like Korg anymore but their stupid apps sound so darn good and are incessantly fun to play The woes of an audiophile synth addict                 No iOS8 function UPDATE works now Nitpick Pete

I would give this app 4 stars but for the price I cannot justify the issues Firstly if you want to layer it will start to cut out sounds Secondly if you want to heavily edit a synth you start to get some terrible background clicks If you are looking for a portable version of your electribe I would say stay away If it was something like 5 I would say go for it         Korg app Spencerb9780

I had the original electribes and I ve had this app since2012 love it                     Kong much thanks Josefdavid

for what its worth it is at the top of its class                 great app WAXGROOVES

Midi note entry please Very nice analog ish sounds but a bit limiting One can get very gritty with this jam Much easier to use than a real electribe but most electribes respond to midi note entry while this puppy does not Still don t believe the haters                 Much fun Brainwash victim

Ability to edit multiple instruments patterns at once Thank you                 Please add _r0z_

if you are a remix artist DJ or just love making awesome beats this is the best for your money The only thing is you can t export the file But I was able to record them to my laptop and then use them as loops GET IT                     Cool App joegu

Not worth it even if it was cheaper     Horrible just horrible Jay Twuon

This is another Korg iOS synth like the poly six that should be offered in Gadget which is such a great sequencer package I can t believe korg hasn t just incorporated ALL of their iOS synths into it MAYBE some day they ll see the coolness of some thing I ve heard on the street for a while from fans of GADGET A Christmas Wish list the legacy collection on an iPad Air peace Christo                     Another one to join gadget Maybe still awesome Aka monkey dope

Update Thanks for making it HAPPEN None of my Korg synths are working since the iOS 8 update Moog Cubase others have updated Korg make it happen                     Come on Korg PTFI

THANK YOU KORG                     Now Working On iOS 8 AshFallenBrightly

Every time I try to open ielectribe on my iPad mini it crashes I figure it s probably because I have iOS 8 PLEASE UPDATE     iOS 8 crash Please fix this:(

iElectribe 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                     Still a classic still very useful HouseOfHomuth

I upgraded my iPad to ISO 8 and iElectribe stopped working needs update to work on 8                 Musician Ray Ray Rat Sh*t

As of 9 23 2014                     Does not yet work with ios8 Webdata

I can t use this with iOS 8 it keeps crashing Please fix asap     This needs to be fixed for iOS 8 Arsmetal

Please fix all your apps are crashing on my iPad mini since I ve updated to IOS 8 Also Come on Korg make a song mode you are better than this     iOS 8 crash Michaelmars1984

Cool app before Ios8 Will rate up if it ever works again     Broken with IOS 8 Slayin' slayer!

Waiting for the fix Apart from the compatibility issue it s 5 stars     A fine drum machine but not for iOS 8 yet ZoltĂĄn Adamek

This does not work with iOS 8 this app needs an update         Does not work with iOS 8 Spartianmaster

App was a gem useless since upgrading to iOS 8     Crashes under iOS 8 Olivier3000

Well worth the money with plenty of features                     Excellent Magic Mack

I have had this for a while but only recently I started to really explore it I m surprised that there are lots of capabilities here to make endless electronic kits and the Beat Flutter function really livens up the almost robotic rhythm The quantity of examples really helps in getting to know how you can use this app Kudos for adding Audiobus as it is easier now to integrate to other apps I ll return with a better review but for now it is staying in my device                 A little harder to learn but a great beatmaker C3l3$t1n0

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                 Very neat TheCleverName

So many sounds to create and customize Great layout Love the motion sequence So great                     Fantastic drum machine JosiahLowe

I bought this app because I read I could cut and paste sounds into the kaossilator and that it does well so that s what the first two stars are The next three stars are missing because where are some nice beats I was a pro dj top 3 ranker in another country before and man the beats here are kindergarten I managed to find 5 that I cut and paste out of the whole app And buyers please beware that this is a drum kit machine not a full synthesizer so don t expect and synth leads or a single sexy saxophone etc I m skeptical about purchasing the other synth app that korg has in the App Store because it may be skimpier than the first two I bought and I ve bought almost every music production app in the store The korg kaossilator needs more loops either please sell some or point us where to buy them And this app Well I have a gift certificate that I was going to use to buy your hardware version but I m going to spend it on something else         Well at least this saves me the 500 I would have spend on the Greg Sletteland

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                     Love It Baked Potato Man

I m convinced by the general feedback about iElectribe that it is a mostly misunderstood app The level of depth complexity and potential are not necessarily immediate though making some kind of sound is thus the bevy of let s call them Frustrated reviews This is an epidemic in general with iOS music apps but regardless Delve into iElectribe and you will be Richly rewarded there s nothing else like it that I know of when you get into the beautifully eccentric qualities of this app That said it is not for everyone Those looking for a basic bang around drum machine might be perplexed disappointed Also worth noting this is a very Electronic sounding feeling instrument so again if you re looking for a basic more standard beatmaker do the proper research to find the right app s for the task At first iElectribe might seem limited but if you re like me this first impression will give way to several levels of unexpected depth and discovery that is pure joy to dive into it is a near perfect balance of control and surprise though unlike several apps with Randomizing factors the user controls Everything about iElectribe output One can tweak both subtle nuance detail and in your face levels of manipulation which blows the playing field wide open and keeps iElectribe so engaging to return to and work with Lastly on the topic of iElectribes limitations yes it is a Very electronic feeling sounding instrument but working within its limitations is creative in itself and not in a contrived making the best of it way but rather in a how far can I push this initial largely deceptively minimal menu way And the truth is you can push it really Really far if you get into it And by the way the sound character is fantastic This is a wordy review of iElecribe but given the amount of one liner dismissive entries and general lack of proper feedback I felt it was time to really talk about such a rewarding and unique app                     Completely Underrated Gem NoUserErrorHere!

It is better than my korg er1 and I love the er1 Not much you can say its awesome                     Freakin rad Chac of Jin

I downloaded this app thinking I could use it to make drum beats for indie rock songs not at all the case First problem is that the kick drum sounds like a deep bass no resemblance to a normal kick drum you would hear in a drum kit And that was kinda the theme for the rest of the drum sounds as well Even after tinkering with all the knobs still sounded like dance music beats So basically you get one default sound for each drum kick snare high hat open closed ect and then you tweak those sounds using knobs There isn t like a list of 10 20 snare drums you can choose from just 1 base sound and then tweak with the knobs Having said that I think most people download this app with dance music in mind so the 2 stars are really just because the app doesn t work for my needs but it doesn t claim to work for rock music anyway Otherwise interface is user friendly and fun to mess around with In summary fun app for dance electro beats No place in indie rock music         unusable for rock music cab33333

Maybe I am thick but it seems to me that you only get a standard drum machine kit and the ability to add effects to it Where is the selection of synths to model Where is the selection of snares and kicks Where is the ability to swap out sounds in each section What a waste of money     No good PurplePariah
