KORG iELECTRIBE for iPhone User Reviews

Top reviews

Ho hum

Very basic for the price (and I got it on sale). There are much better apps out there for cheaper.

Boom, Boom Tschuck!

Great drum machine! Good for beats and weirdness. I used to have an ER-1 and regret that I sold it. This app is my go-to for riddims, blips, blorps, zapps, and BOOM. I'm keeping a star because this app has some growing to do. Korg, please give us the ability to export a sample accurate loop through audio copy or some other sharing method (not just iTunes). I would love to email a preset AND/OR its audio to myself or a chum.

...and it is fun to use!

Slice of Cheese cake

I own the iPad version & loved it so much I bought the iPhone version as well.

Also, how about a Korg DS-10 app?

Thanks

No sound most of the time

Not sure what is going on with this one. I downloaded last night.
Nearly every time I have opened it and press play, NO sound. I see all the pretty lights but , no sound. I checked the "mute" but still nothing is heard.

Cannot record Beat Flutter

Recording a pattern with Beat Flutter is not possible at this time, so there's no way I can see to export this...(which is how it works on the iPad). Not too happy with the app until this is fixed..

Sound design seems very limited

Sequencing is really nice, but actually creating sounds doesnโ€™t offer much variety. Modulation is effective but tends to sound the same across different instruments. Saturation is limited to the โ€œLow Boostโ€, which sounds pretty bad on kicks and doesnโ€™t do much to higher frequency instruments like hi-hats. Iโ€™d love to be able to filter instruments and apply delay / reverb at the same time plus saturate instruments across the whole frequency spectrum. Envelopes are pretty rudimentary and can often sound like a simple gate. Itโ€™s not bad overall, just not as powerful as Iโ€™d like it to be.

App works well but icon...

App works fine. Nothing to say about it. Who designed that icon? You can do so much better and you know it.

Sweet, sweet, sweetness!

Knob twiddling! Button pressing! Effects! Syncing! Drum synth!

Please make an EA-1 or an MS-20 for iPhone. We've waited too long, already! I don't need an iPad, but I want the MS-20. And don't say the iPhone can't handle the software. We all know it can. If you really feel a need to dumb it down, slightly, then make a DS-10+ for iPhone.

You're passing over a lot of revenue by not making an MS-20 for iPhone.

The ER-1 is good, for now, though!

Got to Love Korg

I've bought Korg hardware off the back of their brilliant iOS software.

This is surely a good business model for them, whether they see iOS as a new market or as a means of attracting new hardware customers.

Other music companies, who either don't bother with iOS or do it in a badly watered-down way that gives new customers a bad impression, could learn a lot from Korg!

Rather disappointed

Although I am rather disappointed as I expected it to be more full fledged like the actual korg electribe I own with synth parts, not just a drum machine, it is probably the best drum machine on iOS. I guess I was just too excited for some more korg goodness on my iPhone to read the description properly. I have gadget, ikaossillator, cubassis, figure, rebirth, and a plethora of others.
