Very similar to using hardware
must-have app. 64-step sequencer VA synth. very similar workflow to the EMX-1, but virtual analog like the ER-1MkII. a terrific generator of base rhythms and elements to resample.
Share menu bugged out
Whenever I enter the share menu after using the bounce pattern function, the bottom section of the screen doesn’t appear. In fact, the whole menu layout has overlapping issues. The name and audio files borders are pushed close together along with the titles.
Bad implementation
They should delete this app.
Steady
In an age where much changes or gets deleted, this is a solid gem. Link enabled gets you synced. Oh and dig out that Nanopad 2 that you were goin to give to your nephew. Great for selecting presets.
Come on KORG - where's my Electribe Sampler ? 😉

Korg didn’t and intended not to meet the expectations of the admirers
Sadness!
It’s great
Reasonable alternative to a hardware version!
Response from developer
Hello. Thank you for your message. We are glad to know you like the KORG iElectribe. Please enjoy! Best regards, KORG App Team
Very effective
The interface is friendly and the stock sounds are good. I haven’t begun delving into all functions yet, but so far - good.
it’s not so great
I feel korg can do better, this app makes me want to buy the real thing except the real thing is 40 times more expensive. no way will you get a tube sound of the original, the synthesis on this seems pretty limited, I think the new electribe app is much better, this is a nice kick drum maker and should be 5 dollars, korg did right with the original electribes but this like getting one slice of a full pizza😳where’s my other slices

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.

C’mon Korg, Play Nice!
auV3 please! Bring your great apps into the modern world
No way to export audio
Itunes transfer doesn't exist anymore and you can't share ("bounce") to Soundcloud as stated in the description. IElectribe for iphone can send audio clips to anywhere but not this app for iPad. Korg, please update this iPad app. At this price, it is totally unacceptable to ignore the need to keep it updated.

Great but Korg needs to update their apps
Korg, 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.
Not up to date
Waste of cash right now. Great instrument locked behind a wall of neglect. Sounds like the Electribe, but not even IAA. New Korg stuff sounds worse and is less programmable (ie- boring) and the old stuff like this are still $30 on the app store, but completely lacking any features that would make it useful in a modern context. Shame. Don’t buy.

Missing the keyboard and AUE or Gadget support

this app is amazing
No AUv3, more of a toy or a play thing
Great sounds, but can’t open inside DAW still with AUv3. Purchases this app 4 years ago and still waiting for the support
Solid, creative
Have used the app for a few years. It’s solidly reliable, has some great sounds and enough editing options to keep you happy.
Cannot open bounced audio on iPad?!?
Is there anyway to open the exported loops on the iPad in which the loop was created on? I do not have access to a 2nd computer, is that the only way to use the bounced loops? Is there another way to find the files other then using iTunes on a secondary computer? If not, this app is super disappointing. Sounds are great, but unusable if I cannot open the files on the device in which it was created on.

Not worth it
I thought this would be a software version of the EMX1 because they skinned it to look like it, even including the tubes. However it doesn’t have a fully functioning synth, Lacks the ability to sequence melody and also lacks the ability to input drums organically by playing them. It’s a cool idea but more of a cash grab by Korg than an actual software version of the machine.
Get Grooverider GR16 instead. It’s a real groovebox.

Can be a little glitchy
Overall 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.
