Top reviews

Pattern sequencer starts always from pattern 1

By selecting a pattern in pattern mode, and then pressing play, the pattern 1 starts with no regarding of the previously selected pattern, which is rather cumbersome and slows down the creation flow IMO.

iOS音源の中ではダントツ!

Gadgetも買いましたが結局こればっかり使ってます!
希望は薄いですが一応要望出しておきます!

☆☆☆☆☆ メトロノームが爆音で鼓膜逝く
音量調節させて下さい(切実)

☆☆☆☆ 8小節が苦痛
任意のBARから再生出来たら助かります…
BARにもSOLOボタン対応して任意の小節をループ再生/録音させてくれたら神

☆☆☆ プラグイン版に作った音色が出てこない
今はwavで書き出して対応してますが、プラグイン版でしっかり使えるに越したことはないです。
iOS的に難しい可能性も考えられるので強くは言えない

☆☆ ノブ操作が辛い
全然思った数値にならない…

☆☆ ボタンの当たり判定が悪い
押しても反応しないことが結構ある

ABANDONNÉ

Quel dommage , voila plus de 4 ans que vous n’avez rien apporté à cette merveilleuse application , aucun pack son , aucune amélioration du design , aucune traduction pourtant elle a un potentiel créatif incroyable et vous la laissez abandonné
C’est du gâchis .

Very cool but missing some modulation imo

I wish it had more modulation capabilities beyond the motion which is pretty cool. How do I randomize to modulate? Sample and Hold type of randomness would really add to the power of this. Also, how can I choose the probability, velocity, and etc of individual steps in the drums? This would help with the power and capability immensely. I want to record the Kaoss pad motion and use that as modulation.

Thank you Korg

This is such an amazing app. Thank you for developing such a great app that brings me so much joy and nostalgia about groove boxes from back then. It’s like having my Roland MC-307 back, but better. Please keep on making apps like these.

STILL CAN’T EXPORT PATCHES!!!!!!!!

Edit: Korg responded, and GUESS WHAT!!!!!!! *The backup DOES NOT BACKUP PATCHES!!!!!! I lost *ALL* my patches thanks to restoring!!!!! THAT’S WHY YOU GOT ONE STAR!!!!!

ALSO WHY CAN’t YOU JUST SYNC SITH ICLOUD, at least provide a different export, what a joke.

WHY CAN’T WE EXPORT PATCHES?!?!?

FIX THIS AND I’ll CHANGE MY RATING. FOR THE PRICE WE PAID, THIS IS UNNACEPTABLE.

Great app BUT

I own both iPhone and iPad version but the app won’t let me synchronize on both devices, wich is really annoying. An export of source files, or patterns/songs export of editable content would be awesome

Response from developer

Hello. Thank you for your message. The Electribe Wave has a Song and Pattern Backup/Restore system which can be used to transfer data between devices. In order to do that, please open the settings menu and create a Backup. Then, using Files.app, locate the ElectribeWave folder and transfer your backup file to the destination device. Finally, on the destination device, open the settings and use the "Restore" option to import the file. Please remember to backup both devices to avoid losing any data. If you need further assistance, send us a message in our support channel: https://support.korguser.net/hc/en-us/requests/new Please let us know if everything occurred well by editing this review or sending a message.

Happy I took the chance.

This app has really impressed me tbh. I had never used an Electribe, only a Groovebox. For what it is, it’s pretty cool. It has a pretty great sound first of all. It doesn’t sound cheap. It has some very thick, deep, gritty sounds in it. And some great drum sounds. It sounds crisp and clear. It’s fairly user friendly. Learning to create songs by chaining patterns wasn’t too difficult. I really like how there’s an optional 8 measures to work with. And the keys are quite responsive to touch on here which has been cool. It’s been fun learning to use it. I still haven’t been able to sync it with my other gear though. That’s one of my main obstacles with it now. Other than that I think it’s pretty great.

Juste incroyable

Comment certains peuvent laisser des commentaires négatifs sur cette application… je pense que ceux là feraient mieux de faire autre chose que de la musique… cette application est tout simplement magnifique et une des meilleures que j’ai pu tester. Les sons sons modulables à souhait et ne de limite que votre imagination. Le séquençage est très agréable. On la tout les effets voulus . Rentrer dans cette application c’est comme ouvrir une boîte de pandore .. bien sûr il y a des synthétiseurs qui ont d’autres genres de son mais vous connaissez vous un synthétiseur qui possèdent tout les sons du monde .. à vous d’en créer car avec Electribe vous pouvez le faire. Bref foncez vous ne regretterez rien sur cette app

Hello. Thank you for your message! We're glad to know you like the capabilities of the KORG Electribe Wave. We hope you can always find new sounds to make and new limits to break! Best regards from KORG App Team.

プリセット

デモ曲に使用されている音はプリセットに含まれていません。なので自分でデモの曲をロードしてトラックを選択し、新しいプリセットとして登録しないといけません。しかしスタンドアローン版で登録したプリセットはAudio Unit(以下AU)では使えません。そしてAUではデモをロードできません。なのでAUでデモで使われてる音を使いたい場合は上述のスタンドアローン版で開いた音色のパラメーターを全てメモし、AU版で1から作り直さなくてはいけません。そして作ったところでそのプリセットはDAWに保存することしかできず、ほかのDAWで使う為にはまた1から作り直す必要があります。どうしてこんなことになるのか…残念です。ちなみにドラムもAUでは使えません。

No undo

Was having fun until I learned there was no undo. Not opening this up again. Precious time wasted

Finally Auv3

Thanks korg now please update your other apps 🥰

I love this app A+++

I also own an Electribe EA-1, manual transfers between the two are super simple. This is great because I can write music anywhere, and and then come home and use my physical synths with perfect results. The sound engine is great, and sounds really good through studio monitors. The Mixer and multi track sequencer is beautiful, and versatile enough to make quality masters.

Still a great app

For some reason I produce more music I like in this than in any other app. Synth sounds great. All I hope is that Korg keep updating it so it keeps running on future iOS versions. Please, Korg!

Electribe Review

I don’t like the name of this app. The best part about this app is the ability it has to adapt to new forms of synthesis. - Hooptech33

Pls add noise to the synth!

Love the wavetable synth and use it a lot but find the lack of a noise generator frustrating as it forces me to create a separate layer just to add some noise. Being able to mix in some noise is an essential feature in a synth to add grit and phatmess to certain sounds. Please add it to the Ocillator Mod Types. Then it is perfect.

Please add UNDO!

Needs UNDO! Please add.

Boff

Attractive interface but not very intuitive, the factory sounds are plein horrible and dated, what’s the point of wave motion if not put forward, ha, yes you have to buy the extra packs of course. Get Caustic more fun and better sounding. Anyway Korg have dropped any support on the app and gadget by the look of it. Quick bucks and move on, that is the business model.

Amp Reset?

I love this synth!

I cut my teeth doing experimental music with a green Korg ES-1 back in the 00s and have really enjoyed making music in the Korg grove box format again. This app really feels like an instrument and I have fun playing it whether I’m working on something serious or just messing around. It sounds very, very good.

If I could ask for one feature for the dev team to consider it would be to add another poly voice mode where the amp doesn’t reset to 0 when you play a note a second time. Sometimes called ‘analog amp’. I often use this for generative ambient music (because it’s 8 wavetable synths 😳) but the amp volume resetting and clicking kills the mood.

Good thing I also love to abuse this thing in mono mode with extreme FM settings and make it scream. Don’t hear any clicks over the beautiful noise!

Any chance we can get presets in AUV3 at some point?

see it in action on my YouTube channel called ‘cryptonym’
