All user reviews for the Korg ElecTribe EMX1

See notice or Korg site.

UTILIZATION

Configuration, trs simple instructions I found enough, the functions are accessbiles without any worries.

SOUNDS

For sounds, perfect for electronic music, RnB, House, the styles are DIFFERENT memory.

Overall, I like all the styles on offer, even if my style is more in the Trance, but sounds good if some dates, it is still a good machine and still NEWS.

OVERALL OPINION

I used more or less three months, then changed from something else.

Two MODELS tempt me well, but it is a MODEL for a price consquent.

This is the Machinedrum (Elektron) and Spark (Arturia), but it is still the study for now, not yet taken RULING.

J'apprcie all, it's a good machine trs, even if dj signal as it is a little dated.

The report quality price is right, but for 200 euros more you have a Spark (new), and especially to test whether rflchir effort to take over the machine adapts the needs and especially its music.

Not sr, personal, I'd be more tempted by the Spark, but the Electribe is still excellent.

I would not on its well-known characteristics.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is it simple?
a machine is very simple to learn, you can quickly create a sound or patern.

The manual is clear and sufficient?
Personally, I opened some faith in the beginning to follow the instructions in order to take control and then to go into detail I put it aside (I have no specific training to technical sound and I do not really understand). Parcontre after some time (2 / 3 months) after having a right to left bidouilé I have reopened and there you understand more easily juxtaposed as it arrives at what we did with what is write.

The usual functions are they easily accessible?
Yes, the menus are not as easy to access on some or bike you have to turn right at the florist, enter the left door ..... lol

SOUNDS

The sounds they are suitable to your style of music?
I was mainly hardtek, hardcore and yes it reproduces the sound special.

Are they realistic?
For the most part yes but again like other bike there's always the "bizare".

The effects are they effective and responsive?
Ditto

What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
The list is too long ...

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
I utilsée for 6 years.

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
No it was the first.

What is so special that you love the most, least?
Its easy to learn, and above all it's ideal for live!

How would you rate the quality / price?
At the time I had to pay expensive (€ 850) but yes price / quality ratio pretty decent. Now it is 550 and there is largely correct.

With experience, you do again this choice?
Yes, for a beginner like a connoisseur.

-2 + 2 output jacks other ... headphone microphone or line. (Bpm sync possible) + midi in / out / thru

-207 Drums, hats, beats etc. ... that's good and all styles!
-76 Cd sounds synth guitar, bass etc ... which is an oscillator synth that can be DIFFERENT change the filters. Note that the ds sounds there are some 76 full drumkits plus 207 others!
-1 Oscillator synth that gives her the oscillation of the audio in
-14 Other oscillators of a great sound of the ball!
---------------------
-16 Effects, possibility of chaining three at once.
-9 + 5 drum synth shares shares

Step-squenceur 16 X 8

-Possibility to record directly from the keyboard squence of electribe

-All of rglages knob are saved for each game: pitch, glide, pan, level, eg time.

more for the synth: cutoff, resonance, egtime, overdrive ... rglage type of oscillation

Motion-based recording squence for all the buttons used.

...

And so on of the best, the possibilities of the machine are completely infinite!!

UTILIZATION

Quick even for beginners.

Very handy and easy to use trs.

For now the manuals (extremely comprehensive) are provided in English. it will take several months to get it in french. For the impatient appointment at the site of korg France.

SOUNDS

Excellent sound and ractions keys instantly. Really thundering!

Warning qd even not too EXAGRES on rglages effects, especially the tube overdrive! the risk of damaging the speakers!

OVERALL OPINION

What's good for a price not bad at all (in Belgium
Although my exprience on the hardware components for the TRS is not evolves, I think this machine worth the dtour. To be sure ask a habitus.

Hopefully in a korg shuffled out of MX and SX (sampler) This machine Exceeds all other groovebox home korg.

Possde squenceur a good (up to 128 notes per pattern), very easy to use. We relied on one of the nine tracks of perceived or 5 synth tracks and recorded notes in the pattern, not more complicated! Trs Possde a good effects section (three effects simultaneously). Each track can be directed to one of three effects. The effects can be chains (1,2,3 indpendants or 1 to 2 and 3 alone or 1 to 2 to 3). I drive my Novation Nova Russi from squenceur what is really practical given the "limitations" of the synth part and the lack of variation on percussion. Question types of effects have been right a lot, a fact which "form" imitating the human voice, not bad at all, a 2-band EQ and a compressor that brings some punch to the sound! In addition to the tubes can really bring more to the song. We can get more via the audio IN and synchronize squenceur from the BPM of the audio IN (I have yet to test this functionality. There are 4 or 5 types of LFOs that are routable on the filter, the CSOs or CSO paramtre EDIT1 Edit2 affecting paramtres two main oscillator is chosen, the volume or pan.

UTILIZATION

Trs simple config, everything from buttons and Grable potentiomtres. Only a few functions used are less Grable only from the menu screen. The manual looks clear and well described, but unfortunately in English.

SOUNDS

The sounds of classical percussions are hyper, dj as seen and heard but hey it works! The synth sounds are not bad and it is possible to get a lot of original sounds from DIFFERENT types of oscillators but synthse dire need of such CONTRL from my novation nova or even my Juno 106 (not ADSR EG trs just a basic ADSR envelope, not on filters - part here as a basic EG - which is a shame). Nanmoins can get good bass sounds, sounds trance style but in terms of "strings" or "pads" that's not the top ... L is far from a Nova or other VA. It is the most comprehensive synthesis that is handy. The effects are effective trs but be careful not to abuse it!

OVERALL OPINION

Only a few hours on the bte but overall I am happy and I feel trs there are ways to do many things with the MX, but can not be alone ... A small sampler and a good synth (analog / VA) will come to trs well complter a good groovebox dj trs.

See above ^^^^^^^

UTILIZATION

More and intuitive, anyone can get started with a little good will. Ergonomics trs good overall with a higher compared to the old Electribe: The PartMute + Solo
The little extra for the excellent live. A bank's relatively cool, all the style of electronic music are REPRESENTATIVES of Ambient Big HardCore the right through the good old Hip Hop, Electro and Tek Pioupiou club ...
AND Trs manuiel a clear, Trs rich, complete and FRENCH (included in the package)!

SOUNDS

Nikel sounds are a little shame for regular virtual studios or the lack of synths some paramettre (ADSR, parametric EQ ... [in my raves ...])
What sounds raliste qu'intentin classic, but c in old pots that makes the best soups.
Section arpgiator really nice and some LFO modulation hard to beat!

OVERALL OPINION

Trs good machine but do not take it for a workstation, coupled with other small wonders notament some sequencer software like Orion, Fruity to control MIDI ARTKAYK sympathik but for those who lack the means to afford a controller (complete) MIDI.
Ciao good Discoveries

Lezartkayks

See above for technical info

UTILIZATION

With regard to the first machine for someone who is a novice like me, it does not take long to get some ides intrressantes succeed.
The manual is clear and informative.
The functions are quickly assimilated and it's good to have fun and get a RaPD rsultat giving good.
Of course there are a few hours to spend on it to be comfortable but you get something for nothing.
Conseillle same when I record your diffrent sequences with a MIDI keyboard connect your electribe rather than saving them not only not. This is much faster and much more musically informative (at least you learn to use a keyboard).

Let's talk about the possibilities live.

This machine is made for that.
All the controls are under your nose in the form of knobs (volume, pitch, filter, eg time ...).
In short all to change the sound in real time.
When I mention it looks easy but the work must have to live for hours and hours of training in order to give a true sense of his music can be good but ds Premire the hours pass on its a grind, and mumuse to piss off the neighbors.

The arpegiator is super super nice what do I with DCON.

SOUNDS

With regard to the sound ah ah .....
The sound is warm
From my point of view I sastisfait.
The sound is well suited for all electronic music.
Of course if you want to do the dance hall I advise you arcordeon and a good CD Yvette Horner I embrace the transition.

Ngatifs points:

- Lack a little in the low agressivit.

- Instruments such as violins, guitars are really poor quality (for me)
Pros:

- Y a lot, but the main one being the possibility of cre your sound and your music.

OVERALL OPINION

It has been three months since I use my tribe (and yes we are close now) every day.
I use it in any compound I cre.
It is part of my music and it is an instrument for Entire.

There are some who love or not love, each of these tastes.

At this price CHRE as usual but not regret the purchase.

If I remake c'tait again.

See below ...

Sequencer a little short, but we believe that most contemporary éléctrocompositeurs were too lazy to program beyond measures 8 ...

UTILIZATION

After a year with my beast .... I would not trade for anything in MONDE.Idéal or more for live performance, ergonomics foolproof, that makes me spend hours tinkering with my patterns and sounds . As for the arpeggiator, and well ... just for him I crack.
In short, everything to the touch, flexible and intuitive ... not to feel bullied, if not ultimately by the relatively small number of sounds ...
Not seen better for the price, I feel we will grow old together ...

SOUNDS

PCM sounds a little ridiculous (but usable with a little humor and lots of delay); waveforms malleable and powerful (beautiful unison, Sin not far from the ultimate sub ..). Sounds bass drum vibrating and I assure you that with a little sound, one begins to quickly jeu.Snare Drums somewhat less successful, but it plays when meme.Les internal effects are cepandant a little "cheap" overall (reverb ...). forget we still under the fingers of a machine that runs the old school to tek sounds much less heard.
In my opinion, the lights, it's not just about dressing, bommage the outputs 3 and 4 to escape ...

OVERALL OPINION

In the end, a beautiful réussite.Pour me, it is the center of my config, backed by a sampler and a synth a bit more advanced, it was there under your fingers a powerful potential ....

I'll have a second if I had more hands.

See the test that says all there is to know!

UTILIZATION

Trs easy to use, I got a lot of fun ds over the first few days, yet this is my first machine. All rpond the finger and the eye and everything is accessible directly (no submenus cache). The manual is after three months that the situation in order to better dissquer bbette this and find 2 or 3 dernires tips we would not notice. Not bad rdig this manual also is plutt clear and well explained.

SOUNDS

The sounds sound terrible! I think it is this strength that made me lean toward the purchase of the groovebox. I will not go until they tell me to poustoufl ism but it's really enjoyable ear. Any fawn is to make electro, not the classic, then ism ...
The effects are sympatoches. It can be applied by 3 pattern and combine them if necessary. Combining the three gives a mess in niagaresque dpart but once rglages well Doss, lets out sounds really crazy.

OVERALL OPINION

I possde for 1 year and I intend to keep it. I use it to make music studio (yes!) And even if it's not the machine for idalie, and well suits me well trs. The thing that kills me is for the "motion sequence" (24 per pattern I think): the pure ball!
What can I say except that I love this machine, it is idalie for beginners in electronic music, and is super mimi!
Voil.

- Pair Stereo main jack, auxiliary jack also a pair of which the effects are not willing (or lamps), an audio IN to torture all sound sources to choose from, triplet noon.
- In the 250 sounds perceived, 5 synth parts, but not very editable well made I think.
- Effects section provided enough chorus, flange, distortion, EQ, comp, etc.
- Sequencer with the TR, 16 steps, max 8 bars per pattern.

UTILIZATION

- Simplicity is the word, it's a electribe, if you have already received a machine, getting started immediately, if the first machine, it goes fast too.
- Almost everything is accessible knob, little menu, but it is accessible.
- Manuel clear, nothing to say.

Patterns longer, more automation possible (24 per pattern, against a per track on the old electribe). Good evolution of the series electribe.

SOUNDS

- Sounds are typed techno / electro in general, it's good, that's why I bought it.
- Some sounds are still quite realistic, especially in the percussion, and are therefore suitable for the jungle / dnb, see hip / hop.
- The synths sound great for a groovebox.

Lamps provide a small gain and saturation friendly if they are not pushed too hard, until the nasal distortion if pushed to block.

OVERALL OPINION

- I used it a month and I sold it for lack of money for a multi-effects.
- I like the grip immediately, I liked a little more control over the synth.
- Before buying, I had the MC 303 and 505, the Korg ER1. I always Elektron SPS1.
- I paid new abroad cheaper than its rating on occasion so blameless in this regard.
- If I had space and need a BAR / additional groove is the one where I (re) take to the side "I have fun when I turn it on."

In conclusion, very good machine for those who love the music in the woods.

It combines the main parameters of a virtual analogue with a wide range of waveforms.
The effects are nice.
Plus the small sequencer that close over a drum machine.

UTILIZATION

Archis simple, a real toy.

SOUNDS

Audible large enough capacity in a neat style electro hardcore sticking cardique crisis has your grandmother.
The problem of polyphony in the event of large bass fortunately two stereo outputs.

OVERALL OPINION

Well it is, but just let me go after a year and a half .... not very helpful, I took care, this is the result, even if it is repairable, what I hope, it is fragile in the end .... overall opinion, if it's for a coward after a year is not worth it, especially if you lose your job ... thank you korg ...

Update: a little failure occur at any time and for no apparent reason (source Gaffarel, korg France), the fuse blows and do not be changed by a professional .... strange .... I put five in global opinion because of that spot ...

Good little machine with 4 mono outputs grouped by 2, 1 audio mic / line and headphone output. All complemented by MIDI in / out / thru.

Sounds, much of its ... 207 in the percussion, hit hat, snare and other weird things change the rhythm part of the waveform, length, pitch ...
74 of the instrument for the synth part is changeable in the same way that the rhythm with the cutoff and drive in +.
If it does not take his instrument, is used when the internal synthesizer offering 13 types with each sub type of wave and there is the delusion of ca grind all this, a grinder becomes a sounding board and vice versa ...

The whole can then be sent to the effect section, 16 in all, we can use in three at the same time and channels or use individually, or a single two strings. Modular total!
On top of it because you can save for Chauque movement button, both effects, the modulation, filtering and common synth ... short, you can do everything in Exeter the cutoff does not work on the rhythm part.

When the sequencer to him, play 9 tracks and 5 percussion synthesizer on up to 8 x 16 steps.

UTILIZATION

Config relatively simple, but at first glance, it seems very complex, like all dedicated machines elsewhere, but after a day or two earlier, the magic comes out almost by itself.

I flew over the manual, you learn more testing is not very good, however, he explains the functions and remains a good reference when you dry on something.

SOUNDS

The machine is universal, because of its internal synth, it can produce an infinite number of sound, and although at first it seems to be made for techno and electro sounds with very electronic, moving some buttons, use the instruments it proposes ... and you will see that even be possible with jazz and carefree.
The effects in many complements universality of the machine there that need.

The only thing you can not do with it is save your replay and with the sequencer which is the feature of the Korg SX ... But you can always come by your sound input and pass them in the filter, it will Save elsewhere.

OVERALL OPINION

This is a great machine with many possibilities, the lamp provides a very nice color to the sound, ease of use is appropriate and design more than succeeds.

Coupled with an SX noon, you become the pro live, I often set in a DJ, using the machine instead of putting a disc, the delirium and no one complains .

There are still many things to say, the accents, the arpegiator and other great features
but we finiorait not so ...

Simply excellent!

See the website of KORG

UTILIZATION

This is my first machine, it is very easy to learn and the manual is pretty clear
I've had three days already and I hit the big delusions
Obviously I do not control everything but c'es more practical than a computer to create music.

SOUNDS

The sounds provided are generally good, sound style guitar, trumpet, etc ... are nazes is a machine for making electro, not the classic!
the percussion is operational and can be modulated synths with effects and oscillators can be achieved by mastering the original sounds settings.

OVERALL OPINION

I do not regret my purchase, the price / quality ratio (650 € to 750 € depending on the stores) is excellent, can be produced in all styles of music (tek, house, trance, drum & bass, hip hop etc ...)
I begin, this is my first machine and really easy to use for it is designed for live
I think soon acquire a sampler to make big sound but I have enough fun with my emx-1 by then.

See the test is very comprehensive.

UTILIZATION

I knew that the Electribe EM1, and I must say that I was right to resell my mc303 to acquire Elecribe Mx ... Very easy to use, I consult the manual (downloaded in French on the forum korg) rarely, extremely intuitive it is a small toy. This was also my main inquitude when purchasing, I was afraid to buy a machine to do anything that would have been the final average to see a machine on all the bad points. After two less use, I do not really regret my purchase. The manual is comprehensive easy to use on almost all points. I use it in live and it is easily made using the ARPEGIO, and on the fly, different melodies. I couple with a tr707 whose clock is controlled by the Mx and the audio is received by the audio in and packed with the generator of internal effect .... COMPRESSOR + LAMPS = Your best friend ... I use lamps also home to warm the sound of old machines.

MOST over the electribe Em1 = ​​the ability to delete a complete pattern .. (More need to clear hand by hand!)

7 months later ...
I add one thing ... The ARPEGGIO is monstrous! I use the arpeggio all the time ... an incredible tool! it's really huge, easy to compose anything ...

SOUNDS

About the sounds they are simple, I would say even known to the adept groovebox but so effective ... Sounds the Lynn, TR808, TR909, etc. .... with lamps that changes everything!
The sounds of synths (cfm) are HOnet but not really usable as is (piano, guitars ...) they agree in coaching but no more! Agree to live it ...
The wave generators (chord, dualsynth, etc ...) are really interesting, very minimum is perfect for electro, hip-hop, etc ... What we can do to vitalic or puff diddy!
Several shortcomings:
Outputs 3 and 4 do not pass through the lights ...
The delays, compressor, etc. ... not really edited, but effective live on a component c limit, the words they are of good quality. (The reverb is really bad)
That said ... the sound is really good but lacks a bit of fishing on the lower ...

OVERALL OPINION

Two months of use is I'm very happy!
In time I use it for rhythm and for simple type electro bass.
A big plus point lights!
This machine has character, it has a sound.
One can expensive (840Euros) for this toolbox, but it's worth it ...

After seven months of utilistation, I would not change my Electribe Mx for the world ...

Two years again later ... I separated because it is only useful for live and compose music to hard. This is certainly a good notepad, to do things quickly and have some fun. I'll sell it, will I regret this because it is the arpeggio! it's really nice ...

A pair of MIDI I / O + MIDI Through
a pair of output jack L / R and a spare pair 3 / 4 interesting!
effects: ca not go from the ugly rverb which is very unfortunate.
effects are not really ditables but enough for a "beginners"
PCM sounds: it is therefore for the electro acoustic sounds imitations are very bad I think, but you can actually use them with humor lol
Squenceur 8 measures (one is small but I found a nice technique)
A patern for the chorus and one for the verse (if made with this in mind)

Motion sequence very nice!

UTILIZATION

It recalled the good old analog synths (that is not a simulation EXAGRES anyway)
All essential functions are in faade Submitted! And it's a gift!

The manual is frankly very clear! (It's cool for anyone who has seen jamma groove)

SOUNDS

Personal I think the machine alone is a bit soft on the bass, but as it is couple with a compressor, an equalizer and a multi purpose the external ca become INTERESTED!

(Pity we can not CRER our own drums) but the method can be acted on. (Ca rest of the hack)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years now she has allowed me to compose a lot of "good music" (the PC is thankfully)

Damage (no polyphony), lamps? Where? (Very soft) very bad reverb.

C'tait my first groove and I am delighted to have learned many things with normment!

Very good rappot qualitprix: I think at this price you can buy it eyes closed (it's still very good for beginners who want to ruin)

I remake that choice again (but now it becomes just too right for me)

synth great for this type of machine but no polyphony. (It's a drum machine and not a synthesizer but still it would have been well come ...)

no utility pc

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use and intuitive
function available very accessible

SOUNDS

Its very good (especially lamps)
effects for designers to boost the sounds

OVERALL OPINION

A simple machine to start, compact, inexpensive, ...
highly complementary with ESX1
good sound, the look (it also has), it all
Septic korg before, but not anymore!

What connections (audio, MIDI ...)?

The beast has 4 mono outputs + 1 headphone output and a MIDI IN / OUT / THRU

How many sounds and styles available? Are ditables? Through a utility Mac / PC?

9 from the drum sounds available in 207 and 5 to 76 diposent synth sounds (in leqel there are also drums) and 15 types of synthesis (each of which contains several waveforms)
Of course every type of synthse are editable and all the traditional parameters

Clearly There's enough fun for a long time

He has an effects section?

It available from 3 to 16 effective dispatch indeed what evut say it's like having three multi externality that you can daisy-chain as you voulbr />
What are the characters of squenceur?

I do not use this functionalist

UTILIZATION

The usual functions are they easily accessible?

The advantage of this machine is that most parameters are available and when this pressure is not the case, they are accessible by pressing two buttons simultaneously

The manual is clear and sufficient?

The manual is clear and simple trs fFor use classic soon as you lean toward the south is something else (as with all the hardware for that matter) but for a AudioFanzine is the - )

SOUNDS

The sounds they agree your style of music?

The sounds are perfect for any type of electronic music, for my part it Tek / Hardstyle / Jumpstyle is it really gnial with this machine

Are ralistes?

This is not the goal is a machine electro East

The effects are they effective and responsive?

The effect is not trs effective, but this machine a couple other multi effect is much more professional

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?

It's been 1ans1 / 2 I use

What is the particular feature you like best and least?

I love:

- The touch pad is way pleasant trs
- Accessibility assistive technology software for the hand diffrent (IDAL to live)
- Arpgiateur for the drums

I hate:

- The fact that the controller can not be the mute / solo an external controller (well I have not Russian)
- Knob which take into account the motion before it is back to the initial setting (can you imagine you put your building on a pitch una hand then you change to another portion on which the pitch and 0, you move the knob, the PITC will be thoroughly instead of waiting for the knob back Azro)

See below for all these features

A small snag that's why I put only 8 is missing a step by step mode to the sequencer but good.

UTILIZATION

Config ultra simple, electribe being to my taste and my knowledge of the most intuitive groove present.

The functions is not a complicated one knob per function so it's super simple

The manual seems pretty well detailed, although I have not read quite as intuitive to use.

SOUNDS

The drums are quite successful for style Dance Techno D & B, but there's no crowd either. It is basically that the korg tappe lot if you want to spend your chemain world music.

The synth sounds are broad and flexible as desired (3 + effects + lfo filter + lamp)

Realistic, not too much that a little tweaking can be obtained Bécanne sounds ranging from Asian to more electric shades

The effects are varied and pretty damn too bad for a Bécanne of this type (the here and like many Bécanne separate outputs to emerge is that only the master can send no more on a sub)

For the reaction to the velocity I do not know too if it is received but once saved in the sequencer found the whole dynamic (just small problem when playing with an external sequencer, but it is not the goal of a groove)

I like the unison mode in particular but also many other grind browse to look for and obtained a sound enough analog

OVERALL OPINION

It's been four months that I use I still love to own intuitive Korg Electribe.

On this model more upmarket they could fuck a preset mode for creating sound banks and avoid imports and exports of a pattern of sounds to another, but it's good like that.

Least for me it might tilt the audio comb in which I find is not the most convincing.

The audio is still in practice it often enough (more than one entry with the lamp in the ass)

+ The lamps I think it

A mc909 tried before and I think a Electribe EA1 (also RM1x)

The value for money is not the top (699 euros in three toll-free) but I probably repeat this machine if I had to repeat the choice (among other things because I already have a powerful enough sequencer emu xl7)

It's not where you learn something more for features ..

UTILIZATION

This is an Electribe!

It's simple to use, the first machine is perhaps a little warm: it is better to try an em-1 at the beginning.

controls really intuitive, the menu is simple. The manual is pretty damn good, but (personally) is not so bad to do without and use it just for a specific problem. If not for the problems: the forum management. There are a lot of guys very well calibrated ... that can help novices (and even more used) scratch time or to understand some things.

SOUNDS

I never used anything qe the Electribe but it's true that the sound of the emx-1 is good (bright lights). I went from the em-1 to the emx-1 for her and I'm happy for her ... and everything else!

Compared to its sister ptites, multi effect is great (once you understand how to walk ç) except a little echo or wha EN + was no denial ....

The modulator is nice

OVERALL OPINION

Super value! is not reversible below 600 € in nine I do not think there is as well!

C aesthetically beautiful

Fun fast enough, and before exhausting the resources ..
Personally, staying 3 days / week over 2 years pdt I realized these things .. even after 2 years!

buy it! There's No Other great stead for musical pleasure.

T already said everything I think, and for my part in terms of price I can not complain, the sequencer does not bother me but as I have nothing to compare ... the effect is section qd well supplied and we know the master can be bcp bcp bcp thing, by twelve o'clock I was against management possible brake problem and I have often in my project as a result I quickly disgusts me when I decided to conduct a piece to the end (but it is I who am not good in my head) my main Bonnheure are the long hours of improv
edit: for MIDI it was me as what the problem, the machine can not do everything in the place of man and I hop up the note 9

UTILIZATION

There is nothing easier to start a draft piece main functions are more accessible, I put 9 for ergonomics because I'm a bit lazy in the soul all the same and I ca Gave a little when I have repetition of notes in the money synthle butter butter and the dairy as they say ...

SOUNDS

Not really defined style for me but I like the sounds well, in terms of effects I use mainly the compressor bpm delay and a decimator excess, unwanted artifacts I noticed when you put a high pass filter before the compressor and that's a shame but I ask can be a bit too has the machine, question realism should not be required nor is the sound all the same typical and easily recognizable to a regular one makes quick tour

Update: It's been three good years that I have the bug I begin to tire of her soon emx I think taking a Machinedrum can be passed to another level

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost two years and with hindsight I can say that I have a blast before I buy it for a long time zieuter previous models and I am more than convinced of not having lost in the exchange, which I like most is the incredible feeling that one can have with this machine, what it lacks are the endless knob to avoid jumps in value during a live (but the price would not t the same), with a MIDI control surface becomes a true beast of a live performance but beware of the programming NRPN ...

people put the maximum ds quickly it's great for me, but 8 is a very good note for this machine, 10 is reserved for perfection ...

edit: after two years of loyal service I still discover something, I'm so glad I go up the overall score was 9

OVERALL OPINION

I bought a 700 euros its release and sold a year later because I was playing around with more than really writing songs, mainly because I like the rhythms that come out of the 4 / 4 and EM-X can not to jazz, for example is far too square, that is why I write on MC-909 has really good sound for less time, but which has a super against sequencer, perfect for me that was the mixture of these two machines in one
Maybe Korg Electribe could do with a sequencer such as the oasis? and a larger screen, and finally I always want more is already not so bad and then it sounds pro, to make house, electro, techno, electronic music all connected in general is really the top.

(It was now two years since I sold it and I miss me I think I'm going r'acheter in the hand)

It is very comprehensive, toured the site of KORG

UTILIZATION

We can not get any easier in handling. It's very intuitive (it's a KORG not forget) and the manual is useful only for one or two technical things.
For people who have (or have owned) a Electribe, changes from previous will be more glaring. A lot of little things that make life easier. Personally, I love being able to record while playing a patern whereas before we had to stop. (No more lost pieces in full live)

SOUNDS

A net improvement in the side of KORG and it's very significant.
The sound is much less dry than before. For those who want more, there are two lights that send too much but USE WITH CAUTION! Indicators SPEED saw very red but it works well in moderation.

OVERALL OPINION

I had an EM-1 and the transition to the EMX-1 was like a rebirth. The design aspect is superb, the handling excellent, the sound less metallic KORG wanted to make very hard with this new generation and manages to put the bar very high.
Frankly confirmed for beginners, this machine you like (to try to adopt it).
A very good investment.
