You provide the samples, and the Korg Electribe Sampler music production workstation provides a powerful sequencing environment with cutting-edge effects and outstanding live performance potential. While the Electribe Sampler comes with a collection of drum sounds and loops, you'll love how easy it is to load your own custom sounds and create complex arrangements with them. You'll also be able to use the built-in analog modeling sound engines to create fat bass and synth sounds. If you like creating your own samples, the Korg Electribe Sampler is the perfect tool for sequencing them.

Whether you have a large library of samples or are just getting started with electronic music production, the Korg Electribe Sampler is a powerful creative tool. You can load your own sample sounds or choose from the included samples and loops from Sample Magic, Loopmasters, and Prime Loops. You can slice up samples so they follow tempo changes, apply effects, and even resample while manipulating sound parameters. And you're not limited to your sample collection - the Electribe Sampler also boasts analog modeling sound engines for creating huge synths, basses, and pads.

A Kaoss-style X/Y pad on the Korg Electribe Sampler 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 Sampler has an internal modulation sequencer that lets you record your hands-on manipulations onto your pattern for even more creative potential.

Electronic music producers at Sweetwater love the go-anywhere nature of the Korg Electribe Sampler - 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 generate an Ableton Live Set (.als) file that puts your pattern directly into Ableton Live.

Whether you like to tap in your own drum grooves or use a step sequencer, the Korg Electribe Sampler has you covered. The 16 velocity-sensitive pads have a great feel to them, and you can use them as a keyboard to play bass lines 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.

The Korg Electribe Sampler'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 Sampler's modulation sequencer lets you add another layer of creativity to your music.
