Korg Electribe 16-part Drum Machine with 409 Analog Modeling/PCM Sounds, with 16 Velocity-sensitive Pads, 16 Filter Types, 38 Effects Types, and 250 Patterns

Korg Electribe 16-part Drum Machine with 409 Analog Modeling/PCM Sounds, with 16 Velocity-sensitive Pads, 16 Filter Types, 38 Effects Types, and 250 Patterns


Unlimited Groove Creation Potential
With outstanding sounds, powerful sequencing and pattern managment, and awesome Korg effects, the Korg Electribe is primed for modern music production. Much more than a typical drum machine, you can construct 16-part arrangements, synchronize with other Korg instruments, and even export your productions as an Ableton Live set! Over 400 sounds are on tap, assignable to the 16 velocity-sensitive pads in any combination you like. When it comes to creating drums, bass, and synthesizer grooves for your studio projects or live performance, you'll be blown away by the Korg Electribe music production workstation.

Korg Electribe Music Production Workstation at a Glance:
Create complex grooves and arrangements
Hands-on Kaoss-style effects manipulation
Create anywhere, then export to Ableton Live
Sequence any way you want, with 16 velocity-sensitive pads
Modulation sequencer for amazing live performance potential
Create complex grooves and arrangements with built-in sounds
With over 400 sounds and a 16-part sequencer, you can create incredibly complex and intricate grooves with the Korg Electribe. You can create up to 250 patterns, and group them together into banks for easy one-touch recall. And with analog modeled and PCM instrument sounds on top of awesome drums, you can create melodies and basslines along with your rhythms. If you're looking for a drum machine that you can use to build up full arrangements and switch patterns on the fly, you'll be well served with the Korg Electribe.

Hands-on Kaoss-style effects manipulation
A Kaoss-style X/Y pad on the Korg Electribe replaces the ribbon controller found on previous Electribes, giving you hands-on control over effects parameters. It's cool for filter sweeps, and it also lets you trigger instrument sounds to play scales and arpeggiations. When you're performing live, you'll love the intuitive and creative control this touchpad allows. Best of all, the Electribe has an internal modulation sequencer that lets you record your hands-on manipulations onto your pattern for even more creative potential.

Create anywhere, then export to Ableton Live
Electronic music producers at Sweetwater love the go-anywhere nature of the Korg Electribe - it's even battery powered for true portability. But when you're back in your studio, you need an easy way to integrate with the rest of your gear. If you use Ableton Live you're in luck - the Korg Electribe can export each part within a pattern to a dedicated .wav file, and generates an Ableton Live Set (.als) file that puts your pattern directly into Abelton Live.

Sequence any way you want, with 16 velocity-sensitive pads
Whether you like to tap in your own drum grooves or use a step sequencer, the Korg Electribe has you covered. The 16 velocity-sensitive pads have a great feel to them, and you can use them as a keyboard to play basslines and melodies with instrument sounds. Each pattern you create can have up to 64 steps for each part, long enough to create patterns that build and pulse instead of simply looping over and over.

Modulation sequencer for amazing live performance potential
The Korg Electribe's modulation sequencer lets you add excitement to your patterns by recording your hands-on manipulations. There are 24 modulation sequences for each pattern, allowing you to automate filter sweeps, delay swells, pan positions, and much more. Especially if you're performing live, the Electribe's modulation sequencer lets you add another layer of creativity to your music.

Korg Electribe Music Production Workstation Features:
16-part drum machine and groove workstation with 409 analog modeled/PCM sounds
Sounds cover drums, percussion, bass, synths, and multi-sampled instruments
Extensive hands-on control thanks to dedicated knobs and Kaoss-style X/Y pad
Add sonic spice with 38 effects types
Multiple filter models give you a wide range of sound-sculpting tools
Create and store up to 250 patterns, and group them together for fast recall
Easily export your patterns as Ableton Live sets for further production on your computer (Ableton Live 9 Lite included)
Power via AC adapter or 6 x AA batteries
Sync port lets you synchronize with other Korg instruments
You'll be amazed at what you can create with the Korg Electribe!

Powerful 49-key Controller for Virtual Instruments and DAWs

And since it comes with presets for a wide range of DAWs, you'll be up and running with your Korg taktile-49 keyboard in no time. Whether you're producing or performing, you'll be impressed with the Korg taktile-49.

Korg taktile-49 USB/MIDI Keyboard Controller at a Glance:

The perfect match for your laptop

The perfect match for your laptop
Ask any laptop musician at Sweetwater, and they'll agree that it's rare to find one single controller that includes the same extensive array of built-in functions that Korg taktile-49 keyboard offers. For example, Korg loaded the taktile-49 with an X-Y pad that offers you on-the-fly sound manipulation that goes way beyond what you can do with a mod and pitch wheel alone. But with the press of a button, you can also use it as a trackpad to control your mouse pointer on your computer. The ribbon controller below it can also be used for left and right mouse clicks, meaning you truly never have to touch your laptop when you're working with the taktile-49.

That cool X-Y pad that's so handy when you're tweaking synth sounds in real time also doubles as a track pad, so you have even less of a reason to take your hands off of your taktile-49. A set of eight assignable sliders, encoders, and buttons complete the picture, and thanks to the high-contrast OEL display, finding your way around the taktile-49's functions is a piece of cake.

Even more creative performance options with Chord Scale, Touch Scale, and Arpeggiator
If you're performing live, you'll won't believe only need one piece of gear to do everything the taktile-49 does. It velocity-sensitive pads can trigger individual notes, or use the Chord Scale feature to trigger chords based on the scale you've selected. The Touch Scale function lets you generate melodies just by swiping the touch pad, in the scale and key you specify - just like with Korg's Kaossilator series of synthesizers. And you get fifty different rhythm patterns with the built-in arpeggiator, ready to play your favorite software or hardware synthesizers.

The step sequencer is designed for ease of editing and to allow parts to be inserted or removed "on the fly." Use the 16 step keys to enter notes intuitively while maintaining visual confirmation of the timing of the notes in a measure. You can also record your performance in real time.

Up to ten of the sequence patterns you create can be stored in internal memory.

Motion sequencer records and plays back up to 11 parameters
The motion sequence function records your knob movements, letting you add time-varying change to the sound. This is a great way to polish your loops, and also lets you generate highly original live performances. The volca sample is able to record all knob movements that are related to sound editing. This allows sophisticated editing that had been impossible for hardware samplers of this category.

Parameters that can be used with Motion Sequence

・ Start Point (Playback start location)
・ Length (Playback length)
・ Hi Cut (Cutoff frequency)
・ Speed (Playback speed)
・ Pitch EG Int (Pitch EG depth)
・ Pitch EG Attack (Pitch EG attack time)
・ Pitch EG Decay (Pitch EG Decay time)
・ Amp Level
・ Pan
・ Amp EG Attack (Amp EG Attack time)
・ Amp EG Decay (Amp EG Decay time)

Active Step and Step Jump functions let you insert and remove steps

The Active Step function lets you skip steps during the sequence, and the Step Jump function lets you instantly play just the step that you're pressing. From short-loop effects to unimaginably irregular rhythms, these functions allow dynamic performances as though you were performing the sequence itself.

Swing function generates grooves

The Swing function adjusts the swing playback position, generating the distinctive groove of dance music styles such as hip-hop. As appropriate for the character of your song, you can shift between rushing and dragging the beat.

Use the Analogue Isolator to control the sound

Analog Isolator provides powerful and great-sounding possibilities

volca sample features a frequency isolator, which has become a powerful tool in the creation of numerous electronic genres. This lets you apply powerful changes to the sound and create development and breaks by boosting or cutting the low/high ranges. The isolator is implemented as an analog circuit, ensuring thick sound even in the flat position.

Reverb Per Part

The built-in reverb effect can be switched on/off for each part. The isolator and reverb can be used together, enhancing your live performance with possibilities such as cutting the low range and letting it fly.

Song mode for more dynamic performances

In a first for the volca series, a Song mode is featured. You can save up to six song patterns, each combining up to 16 sequences. This enables performance possibilities that are unique to the volca sample with its ability to play a diverse range of samples; for example you could play back together with another synchronized volca unit while dramatically changing the rhythm pattern of the volca sample.

Reverse function lets you play samples backward

The sample reverse playback that's indispensable for hip-hop is provided, and you can turn it on/off independently for each part.

A high-tech drum kit with three clips that trigger onboard drum samples

CLIPHIT is an electronic drum kit composed of three clips with internal sensors, as well as a foot switch. You can attach the clips to almost any surface such as a practice pad, magazine, or desk, and play drums in real time. The volume changes as you vary the force of your strike, and can also be adjusted independently for each clip and pedal. There's a 3-inch speaker with 2W output and a bass-reflex design, delivering great-sounding tone for your drum performance, or connect headphones or an external speaker system for an even bigger sound.
Eleven kits are provided covering a variety of styles

Eleven different combinations are provided, including snare, hi-hat, toms, cymbals, bass drums. If you add an optional pedal switch, you'll be able to simultaneously play a total of five different sounds, three with the clips and two with the pedal, expanding your drum performance to hi-hat open/close or double bass. EFX programmed sounds such as conga, tambourine, hand-claps, and even dog barks are just some of the wide variety of sounds included in the CLIPHIT.

You can play drums by striking the CLIPHIT itself with your hands

In addition to using the clips and the pedal, you can also strike the CLIPHIT itself with your hand to play the snare or other sounds that are assigned to "CLIP 2." The CLIPHIT is designed with plenty of flexibility: you can use this capability in conjunction with "CLIP 1" and "CLIP 3," when using the main unit and the pedal switch, or when simply using the CLIPHIT by itself. *If a clip is connected to "CLIP 2," striking the CLIPHIT itself does not produce sound.

Compact design, Battery operation, and Convenience

Another exclusive feature of the unique product is its design. It's compact and easily storable, but also looks good enough to leave on display in offices, studios and living spaces. Four AA batteries allow up to six hours of operation, allowing you to enjoy playing in a wide range of situations. There's also an AUX input so you can connect an MP3 player and jam along. Your imagination is sure to invent endless ways to use the CLIPHIT, dramatically expanding your drum performance possibilities while having fun.
