Esx/emx vst plugin
2013-12-22
VST plugin (linux/windows 32/64bit) to control/sequence your Electribe ESX/EMX using a DAW.

DISCLAIMER: the EMX-scripts are not finished/available yet, since I dont own one. However, looking at the manual, anyone with a text-editor could modify the ESX scripts to get it working. (please send me those to info at leondustar dot com)

demonstration @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFIJuEtbHH0

REQUIREMENTS
=============
* not afraid of midi
* a midiconnection (usb-2-midi-cable e.g.) from your computer (midi out) to your electribe esx (midi in)
* you need a VSTHOST which supports midivst. 

1) download the zip (and unzip it into your vstfolder if you want to use it with your DAW)

2) run an .exe file in windows. In linux run the '-linux'-files from the commandline. Or, start your VSTHOST, and launch the plugin (its called 'reaJS' or 'electribe-vstx-32/64')

3) the plugin pops up with the default program for electribe track 2 (press the 'Load' button to select other electribe parts)

4) make sure the plugin is outputting to your midicable (which is connected to your esx/emx)

Electribome (es|m|x to monome)
2014-01-27
Just another fun little monome emulator type thing. I was getting curious about how much better a monome 128 would be. Using the MIDI keyboard on the Korg Electribe you can get 16 columns horizontally, and 9 rows vertically using the drum parts (ESX) or 5 rows from the keyboard parts (EMX).

Instructions (Korg ESX)



Select Keyboard Part 1 and make sure the octave setting is on the lowest setting:
Select the MIDI device that the Electribe is connected to.
Set the row by choosing a drum part. Remember that afterwards you will have to reselect Keyboard Part 1.
Play!
Instructions (Korg EMX)

Press one of the keyboard parts (1-5) to select a row.
Make sure it’s on the lowest octave setting (see above)
Play!
Note: You don’t need anything else running (monomeserial etc). It also makes sense not to have the volume on!

Electribe2 pattern editor (ableton)
2015-06-21
Electribe2 Pattern Editor version 026 

The Electribe2 Pattern Editor can be used to bring patches (parts) and sequences of various Electribe2 patterns together in new patterns. Editing of sequences is also possible. You can use your Electribe2 now for turning the dials. A Launchpad (original, S or mini) can be used to edit the sequence.

Version 026: 
- MIDI support for Electribe2 dials
- MIDI support for Novation Launchpad for the sequencer
- View selector: Parameters, Sequence or Wide
- Open- and Save Dialogs
- Layout changes
- Bugfixes

Version 018: 
- Number display for Gate Time and Velocity edit

Version 016: 
- Added a Windows stand alone version for MAX 6 (runtime)

Version 015: 
- Added editor for sequences
- Added grid for 8 drum parts

Version 012: 
- Added editing of the Part Parameters.

Version 011: 
- Added editing of the Global Parameters.

Version 010: 
- First release. Loading and saving of .E2PAT files works, loading and saving of parts and sequences is also possible. This is the minimum functionality to let this editor work as a librarian.

Next step:
-	MIDI IO to Electribe2

The working is simple. First you have to drop an E2Pat file (exported from the electribe2). You can select a current part by clicking on it's name. Then it is possible to save the current part or the current sequence or a combination of them to disc. This way you can create a library of patches (parts) and sequences.

To create a new pattern you have to load an .E2PAT file as a starter. Then you can Select parts and drop parts and sequences from you library. Then you save the new .E2PAT fale and import is into you Electribe2.

Of course the Electribe2 Pattern Editor is freeware. All sources are included.

Please feel free to comment on this and make suggestions for improvement.

Sample multi-shotifier
2013-03-01
from the site:

hack which expands your traditional hardware/software samplers using many-samples-in-one-sample (poor man's soundfont)

This is a directorybased sample-utility which can glue samplefiles together into one samplefile. This file can be used in old/new hardware/software samplers. This only works well if your sampler supports setting the samplestart-offset-parameter on-the-fly. For example, the startposition-knob on your sampler goes from 0..127. In theory this means you can navigate thru 128 samples if you generate a sample which contains 128 samples (with the same length..hence the trim-feature). 

In these days fiddling with hardware samplers can be cumbersome..swapping disks, copying stuff etc. With this tool you can just 'bake' a subset of your sample collection/directories to one file, and access them all at once on your sampler.

Smartnamer es1
2013-11-01
SMARTNAMER FOR THE KORG ELECTRIBE ES-1
The Korg Electribe ES-1 is a sampler/step-sequencer with build in effects. The ES-1 uses SmartMedia(tm) for saving and loading memory and loading samples. But the ES-1 only recognises samples wich are named 00.wav to 99.wav.
Renaming these samples for you: that's the main task of the 'Electribe ES-1 - SmartNamer'.

Introduction

The ES-1 however only recognises samples named 00.wav till 99.wav (or .aif but only the .wav format is used by the 'SmartNamer'). The core task of the 'SmartNamer' is to rename the samples, and to remember the original names. But it has more features for easy file exchange.

Features
- Copying samples from your PC to SmartMedia while renaming them to 00.wav till 99.wav which the ES-1 recognises.
- Remembering the original sample names. (In the 'names.txt' file on SmartMedia).
- Copying and naming bank files (.es1) the same way as samples.
- Renaming and deleting samples and bankfiles.
- Audition samples when they are doubleclicked.

Tx16wx vst sampler
2013-03-01
Popular software sampler (100% free) to use in conjunction with the Electribe ESX/EMX. 

It delivers an easy way to extend your electribe with sfz/sf2 soundfonts and complex samplemapping/resampling on keyboardparts. It's touted as the best hybrid workflow between hardware- and software.

Requirements: a pc, electribe midi output to usb-to-midicable, (for esx: audio out of pc routed to elecrtibe audio-in). Recommended usage with free herman seibb's vsthost/savihot. For more instructions see this article: http://leondustar.nl/blog/archive/hybrid-setup

From the site: "Tired of the same old sample playback plug-ins, rehashing tired preset sounds and locking you in to a single manufacturer and data format? Would you like to experience that sheer joy that comes from building your own sounds, recording your own samples and mangling them with near endless sound shaping possibilities?"
