Maybe the best music scratchpad out there
LordWire 02.04.2018
I got this little baby to see if I could get away from the computer screen for a while. And boy, it does deliver!

It takes some time getting used to, which might also require some googling around. But once you get around that, it is a wonderful way of shaping ideas on a simple interface without distractions and endless choices. Sound is a little limited, but that's not the point here. Should you need to give a better "body" to your idea, use MIDI to drive external instruments (virtual or actual) and keep it as a sequencer.

Some silly missing details do exist, such as the lack of 'backspace' key when you rename a pattern. It was removed in a firmware upgrade and never made its way back. But these won't get in your way of being creative, just annoy you in rare occasions.
I do consider Korg's total disregard in correcting these details bad behavior though, which is why the 3 stars in features.

One last word of advice, pay really close attention on whether you need the synth or the sampler version.

Besides that, I would totally recommend this again and again and again!

Fun and Easy
Danispada 05.06.2021
I love the intuitive simplicity of the Electribe 2. I can do pretty much anything on it from electronic grooves to accompanying tracks for my electric guitar.
I wish the keypad was better and that there was a full midi implementation. Also the micro editing is a little convoluted for me.
Other than that it is super fun and the synth engine sound is very good.

Excellent Synth
Brian95 09.03.2021
If you are familiar with the EMX-1 workflow than this will be the sweet spot between familiarity and novelty. There are new sounds and fx here but the old sounds of the EMX - 1 are still doable on this!

Great versatile machine.
Bery 11.07.2018
In the beginning, I had to used to the user interface and watched many video tutorials. But features it offers are great, from sequencing extern devices to its own DSP and onboard effects.
Last but not last, this device in blue color is really good looking piece of HW!

Nice to try out but...
jonArzelus 06.06.2020
The previous model was analogic and thus did not have the problems this model has, the first time I turned it on it stoped working after 15 mins, shutting down and restarting did the trick but this is not acceptable for a "live performance" gear. Also, this happened some more times randomly. Neverteless, it is very nice to try out as the Electribe 1 models are very expensive and difficult to find new

Great little groovebox!
Jarl Borg 30.01.2018
Great device for sequencing on the fly. Plays nice with external gear. Internal sound not highly tweakable, but you can get there with some creative thinking

AN UTTER GEM OF A MACHINE
Alan4673 16.02.2017
Great system which I will put to good use within my studio. Would certainly recommend it to all musicians, no matter what instrument you play. Construction is great and all buttons, knobs, pads are clearly marked and sturdy.
