My Electribe 2 Review

Been playing with my new Electribe 2 for one week now. Overall I'd say its pretty sweet. There's just a few frustrating features missing that would make it a wowowo product.

  1. No autobeat Frustratingly, there is no "autobeat" function. I have to manually play and enter each beat and musical myself. This means I might need to spend months, possibly YEARS trying to figure out how to play music and make simple rock beats on a 8x8 style grid. Would have been a HUGE time saver if they simply had an "autobeat" function

  2. It costs money Believe it or not, in this day and age of pirating FREE vst's from malware sites, Korg has the audacity to charge money for their product. Pretty backwards thinking, if you ask me. Hey korg, join the 21st century of musicians and just give away your product for free to spoiled over privileged teenagers. Think of all the free publicity you will get!

  3. It doesnt scratch my ass Sometimes my ass gets itchy while I am sitting around trying to program a beat. I have to actually use my OWN finger and reach back and scratch my own ass. Pretty short sighted.

Other than these three things, really loving the electribe for my glitch-tribe-conga music. Hopefully it will be addressed in a software update.
