Introduction
Refreshed and
reborn with massive SD card data storage (up to 32GB SDHC), up-to-date
patterns, the ELECTRIBE•SXSD remains an indispensible instrument for
dance and electronic music, and for creative artists around the world.
The acclaimed ease-of-use, advanced features, and epoch-making sonic
power of the ELECTRIBE•SX are all as strong as ever. With the addition
of SD card storage and new patterns to keep up with the ceaseless
evolution of dance and electronic music, the ELECTRIBE•SXSD has reached
a new level as "must-have" gear.
Indispensible dance and electronic music gear, now reborn
The
ELECTRIBE•SX has been reborn! Retaining the inimitable, intuitive style
that made the ELECTRIBES stand tall against other dance and electronic
music gear, it now supports SD card data storage and features programs
for today's music scene – patterns available for immediate use!
Flexible, convenient SD card data storage
An
SD card slot is now provided, so the pattern and song data you create
on the ELECTRIBE•SXSD can be quickly saved to an SD card. Now you can
easily manage your data on the ELECTRIBE•SXSD itself, without the need
for an external computer! SDHC cards of up to 32GB are supported, so
you can stockpile plenty of sounds. Data compatibility with earlier
models is maintained, so data you created on the original ELECTRIBE•SX
can be played back unaltered on the new version.
New up-to-date patterns created by today's hot talent
New
preset data has been carefully selected from the latest sounds and
patterns produced by ELECTRIBE loving creative artists from around the
world. Ninja Tune/Big Dada artists Emika and the Anti-pop Consortium
are contributors, as well as U.K. MySpace artist Shrikednb (Tom
Thorpe); plus YouTube stars Denkitribe, mryat and Scribej. Simply
listening to these new patterns will nourish your need to create
cutting-edge music.
The ELECTRIBE•SXSD represents a new
generation of Electribes – powerful dance music products that cover
everything from laying down stunning tracks to creating exhilarating
live performances. Both come housed in a sleek, rugged metal chassis.
The backlit LCD provides a wealth of information during programming or
performance.
The intuitive ELECTRIBE
step-time/realtime interface has been enhanced with Korg's Ribbon and
Slider control. Effects, Motion Sequencing, and Pattern length have all
been expanded. Our exclusive filter lets you chose Low Pass, High Pass,
Band Pass or Band Pass Plus.
Filter Demos
Here’s a few audio examples to show what sweeping each filter type can do (drum loop courtesy of Skippy's Big Bad Beats):
HH LPF.mp3 (mp3, 283KB): The traditional Low Pass Filter, which removes high frequencies as it is closed.
HH HPF (mp3, 337KB): A High Pass Filter, which removes lower frequencies as it is swept.
HH BPF (mp3, 516KB): A Band Pass Filter, which only passes frequencies close to (or to each side of) the center frequency it is set to.
HH BPF+ (mp3,
514KB): A variation of the Band Pass Filter which also has a parallel
dry path mixed into the signal. This is good for accentuating certain
frequencies on top of the original signal.
LPFR and BPM Mod (mp3, 750KB): Now we add some BPM-synced filter modulation to the Low Pass Filter, driven by a random LFO shape.
HPF Env BPM Mod (mp3, 353KB): A BPM-modulated High Pass Filter with a repeating envelope shape.
Up to 256 patterns can be created and
stored to the internal memory. You can combine patterns, add mute data
and knob movements to create up to 64 songs. To get you started, a wide
assortment of 192 patterns covering house, hip-hop, R&B,
electronica, drum'n'bass, techno, trance and more come preloaded. Using
the last step function, you can easily adjust to any odd meter.
Favorite patterns can be assigned to Pattern Sets for instant access.
Data can be quickly saved and loaded via SmartMedia.
Audio inputs allow you to process
external signals through the on-board filter and effects, and an extra
pair of assignable outputs has been added as well. The front panel
knobs and switches control all the most important sound parameters,
allowing you to modify the sound in realtime as you perform, and giving
you a hands-on feel like that of an analog synthesizer.
