iELECTRIBE Gorillaz Edition vs Chordjam

Korg has teamed up with the hugely popular and globally successful virtual band Gorillaz™ to create a new dedicated beatbox for the iPad: The iELECTRIBE Gorillaz Edition. The iELECTRIBE is a virtual analog beatbox for the iPad; sound creation is easy, fun and intuitive – just as on a vintage analog synthesizer. Simply choose a part and touch the 16-step sequencer to quickly build a groove. The aggressive sound, unique functionality, and intuitive beat-building style of the iELECTRIBE made it a favorite of Gorillaz for their latest album “The Fall”.

Chordjam is an innovative MIDI plugin that builds chords and progression patterns through intuitive user-guided randomization. Choose from a variety of scale types, Chord types, voicing parameters, rhythms and progressions or have its powerful sequencer conjure up unlimited progression patterns for you, based on any combination of settings, serving up unpredictable but always-musical variations. Create unique and complex chord structures and infinitely evolving progressions. Chordjam now supports MPE technology (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) to deliver polyphonic portamento/gliding chords which allows you to bend from any chord to any chord, both in real-time chord triggering or using the sequencer’s progression patterns. Chordjam is the ultimate real-time compositional assistant for iPad. Designed to feed any Synth, Sampler and anything that accepts MIDI signal both software and hardware. Featuring MIDI output support over WiFi or MIDI cable. Chordjam also supports Ableton Link for tight sync between apps on the same network.
