Parameter Guide
Thank you for purchasing the Korg electribe sampler music production station. To ensure trouble-free enjoyment, please read the included
owner’s manual carefully and use the product as directed.
TIP This document contains information about all of the electribe sampler’s parameters. Refer to this guide when you want to learn more
about a specific parameter.
1. PATTERN PARAMETERS
These parameters are for pattern-related settings. The settings are
saved independently for each pattern.
BPM............................................................................... [20.0...300.0]
Specifies the tempo (BPM). Turn the Value knob to change the tempo
in steps of 1. By holding down the Shift button and turning the
Value knob you can adjust the value in steps of 0.1
TIP By tapping the Tap button you can use the tap tempo function
to specify the BPM.
SWING .........................................................................[-50%...+50%]
Shifts the note-on timing of the even-numbered steps as a percentage
(%).
TIP If you set Last Step to an odd number or use an MFX type (Seq
Reverse, Seq Doubler, Odd Stepper, Even Stepper) that con-
trols the sequencer, this parameter may shift the timing of
odd-numbered rather than even-numbered steps.
TIP A setting of "+33%" results in timing that is close to a perfect
shuffle.
123456789
SWING
–50 –25 +25 +50
BEAT .................................................................... [16, 32, 8Tri, 16Tri]
Specifies the beat (time signature) of the pattern.
TIP If this is set to 8Tri or 16Tri, trigger pads 13–16 of the Step
Jump function are assigned to steps 1–4 of the next measure.
LENGTH ..................................................................................... [1...4]
Specifies the length of the pattern.
PATTERN LEVEL.....................................................................[0...127]
Adjusts the volume of the entire pattern.
MFX TYPE...............................................................................[01...32]
Selects the type of master effect. Refer to the MFX Type List for
details of the available effect types.
TIP Depending on the effect type, the motion sequence function
might be unavailable in some cases. Refer to the MFX Type List.
Clear MFX Motion
Erases the master effect’s motion sequence that was recorded in the
pattern.
KEY.............................................................................................[C...B]
Specifies the key (root note) that is the basis of the scale you selected
for the SCALE parameter.
SCALE ...............................................................[Chromatic...Octave]
Specifies the scale that is assigned to the touch pad and trigger pads.
Refer to the Scale List for details of the available scale types.
CHORD SET................................................................................ [1...5]
Controls the density of the chord that’s produced when you strike a
trigger pad in chord scale mode.
TIP The range depends on the scale that’s selected.
GATE ARP................................................................................. [1...50]
Selects the pattern type for the gate arpeggiator.
ALTERNATE 13-14 ................................................................ [Off, On]
Enables alternate operation for triggering two parts. For example, by
assigning hi-hat close to part 13 and open to part 14, and then
turning ALTERNATE 13-14 On, you can prevent those two parts
from playing simultaneously, ensuring that your performance will
sound natural.
ALTERNATE 15-16 ................................................................ [Off, On]
→see ALTERNATE 13-14
CHAIN TO....................................................................... [Off, 1... 250]
When the currently-selected pattern has finished playing, the
pattern specified using the CHAIN TO parameter will automatically
begin to play. If this parameter is set to “Off,” the current pattern
will continue to play.
TIP The Global Parameter CHAIN MODE must be set to ON for
the CHAIN TO and CHAIN REPEAT parameters to have any
effect. (→p.9 CHAIN MODE)
CHAIN REPEAT......................................................................... [1...64]
This specifies the number of times that the current pattern will play
before advancing to the pattern specified by the CHAIN TO param-
eter.
TIP If CHAIN TO is set to Off, CHAIN REPEAT will have no effect.
About the chain function
The CHAIN TO and CHAIN REPEAT parameters allow you to use
multiple pattern to create and playback a song. For example, if you
set the Pattern 1 CHAIN TO parameter to Pattern 2 (value of 2) and
the Pattern 1 CHAIN REPEAT parameter to a value of 2 (and set
the Pattern 2 CHAIN TO parameter to Off), the patterns will play
as shown below.

CHAIN TO: 2
CHAIN REPEAT: 2
001
Pattern 1
CHAIN TO: 2
CHAIN REPEAT: 2
002
Pattern 2

CHAIN REPEAT: --
Now, change the Pattern 2 CHAIN TO parameter to Pattern 3
(value of 3) and the Pattern 2 CHAIN REPEAT parameter to a
value of 1. Next, set the CHAIN TO parameter of Pattern 3 to
Pattern 1 (value of 1) and the CHAIN REPEAT parameter of
Pattern 3 to a value of 1. The patterns will play in a loop, as shown.

2. PART PARAMETERS
These parameters are for part settings. The settings are saved
independently for each part.
LAST STEP................................................................................ [1...16]
Normally you’ll use a setting of 16. Select a different setting if you
want to create a pattern that has an irregular time signature. For
example to create a part that has 11 beats per measure, set the last
step to 11 so that one length will be a part equivalent to 11 steps.
TIP Last Step is a function that is specific to this unit; if you are
synchronizing the performance with an external sequencer or
with a different model of electribe, the portion of the irregular
time signature will not synchronize.
TIP If you specify a Last Step that is shorter than the original
number of steps, any note data located in the shortened
portion is preserved but is not played.
TIP If Beat is set to 8Tri or 16Tri, the maximum number of steps is
12. If you specify any value above this, the setting will be 12.
TIP When you use the Step Jump function, step numbers 1 and
following of the next measure are successively assigned to the
trigger pads of numbers above the last step.
GROOVE TYPE .................................. [01 Conga1...25 Decrescendo]
Selects the type of Groove. The Groove function lets you modify
rhythmically precise sequence data by applying a sense of groove
that reproduces the feel of timing with which certain typical instru-
ments are played, or the rhythmic feel of the song. For details on the
available groove types, refer to the Grove Type List.
GROOVE DEPTH .................................................................... [0...127]
Adjusts the depth of the Groove effect.
VOICE ASSIGN ..................................[Mono1, Mono2, Poly1, Poly2]
Specifies the polyphony of the selected part.
Mono1: The part plays monophonically (single notes).
If you continue holding down the first trigger pad, the second
and subsequent notes do not retrigger the EG. Use this setting
when playing legato. However, retriggering will occur when a
one-shot sample is sounded.
Mono2: The part plays monophonically (single notes).
The EG is retriggered each time you press the trigger pad.
Poly1: The part can play chords that share a single EG, filter,
amp, and insert effect (pseudo-polyphonic). A maximum of four
voices can be sounded. The EG is not retriggered until you
release all trigger pads. However, retriggering will occur when a
one-shot sample is sounded.
Poly2: The part can play chords that share a single EG, filter,
amp, and insert effect (pseudo-polyphonic). A maximum of four
voices can be sounded. The EG is retriggered each time you
press the trigger pad to play a note.
PART PRIORITY...........................................................[Normal, High]
Specifies the order of note priority for the selected part.
If the pattern playback contains numerous overlapping notes, there
may be cases in which a currently-sounding note is stopped before a
new note is sounded. By setting the PART PRIORITY parameter to
High, you can make it less likely that notes of that part will be
turned off. However, the effectiveness of this setting is decreased if
you select the High setting for multiple parts. Use discretion when
choosing the part(s) that use the High setting.
TIP The effectiveness of this parameter is reduced if you set
multiple parts to High, so you should be selective about the
parts for which you specify High priority.
MOTION SEQ .........................................[Off, Smooth, Trigger Hold]
Specifies how motion sequence will work for the selected part.
Off: The recorded motion sequence is disabled.
Smooth: Knob movements are fluid, creating smooth change in
the sound.
Trigger Hold: The knob values in the motion sequence are held
from the moment that the part is played.
TIP MFX motion sequences use the Smooth setting.
TRG. PAD VELOCITY ............................................................. [Off, On]
Enables or disables trigger pad velocity sensitivity.
SCALE MODE ........................................................................ [Off, On]
Specifies whether the pitch will follow when you change the Scale
and Key.
To make the pitch follow correctly, turn this On before you record
that part's performance.

3. STEP EDIT
To create a more elaborate pattern, you can edit individual steps of a
pattern that you’ve recorded or a pattern that’s saved in the electribe
sampler.
You can readjust the note number or modify the gate time.
A phrase pattern consists of the following five types of data.
This data can be individually edited for each step.
Trigger: Whether a note is sounded at that step
Note number: The pitch that is sounded
Gate time: How long it is sounded
Velocity: How strongly it is sounded
Motion Sequence: How the value of a knob or other controller is
changed.
If you want to save a pattern that you’ve edited, you must
write it before selecting another pattern or turning off the
power.
STEP NUMBER .............................................................. [1.01... 4.16]
Selects the step that you’ll edit. When you press a trigger pad to
specify a step directly, the trigger on/off status also changes.
This step that’s selected for editing is called the “target step.” Turn
the Value knob to select the target step.
At this time the step key corresponding to the target step will light.
If the pattern length is 2 or greater, you can also specify it by press-
ing a step button. If you press the trigger pad of an empty target
step, note number C4 is entered.
TIP You can edit up to step 4.16. The maximum number of steps
that are actually played depends on the length, beat, and last
step settings.
TIP To change the target step by units of a Length, hold down the
Shift button and turn the Value knob.
NOTE ...........................................................................[---, C-1...G 09]
Specifies the note number of the target step. You can record up to
four note numbers in each target step.
You can change this in steps of an octave by holding down the Shift
button and turning the Value knob.
You can also change the target step by pressing a trigger pad.
TIP If the display indicates “NOTE” pressing a step button does
not change the trigger on/off setting.
TIP Even if you change the note number of a step whose trigger is
off, that step does not produce sound until you turn the trigger
on.
GATE TIME ..................................................................... [ 00...96, TIE]
This is the gate time length of each step. For example, if the gate time
is “96,” the duration of the note is exactly as long as a single step.
TIP If you specify “TIE,” the oscillator, EG, and modulation are not
retriggered if the next step has the same note.
TIP If the display indicates “GATE TIME,” pressing a step key does
not change the trigger on/off setting.
TIP Even if you change the gate time of a step whose trigger is off,
that step does not produce sound until you turn the trigger on.
VELOCITY...........................................................................[001...127]
Specifies the strength of the note.
OSC EDIT MOTION .....................................................[Off, 000...127]
Specifies the OSC Edit value within the motion sequence data.
4. PART UTILITY
COPY PART
This lets you copy the sound and sequence data (including the
motion sequence) of the currently selected part to another part.
TIP If this copy operation would result in more than 24 motion
sequences, the motion sequence is not copied.
COPY PART SOUND
This lets you copy only the sound data of the currently selected part
to another part.
TIP Step data and motion sequence data is not copied.
CLEAR SEQUENCE
This lets you delete the sequence data (trigger, note number, gate
time) of the selected part.
CLEAR MOTION
Deletes the motion sequence data of the selected part.

5. SAMPLE EDIT
Here you can edit or modify a sample.
TIP After editing each item, press the Write button to save the
sample.
SELECT SAMPLE
Selects the sample that you’ll edit.
RENAME
Edits the name of the sample.
START POINT .......................................................................................
Specifies the playback start point.
END POINT...........................................................................................
Specifies the playback end point.
START END
0
LOOP START POINT.............................................................................
Specifies the loop start point. The sample playback is looped from
the point you specify here until the END POINT. If you set this to
the same value as END POINT, the sample plays as a one-shot
sample (used for non-looped samples such as drums).
START
END
LOOP START
0
SAMPLE TUNE ................................................................... [-63...+63]
Adjusts the pitch of the sample.
TIME SLICE
Divides the sample by beats.
(→About time slice)
CLEAR SLICE
Cancels the result of the TIME SLICE (divide sample) operation.
PLAY LEVEL............................................................. [Normal, +12 dB]
Changes the playback level of the sample. For a resampled sample,
this is automatically set to “+12 dB” in order to reproduce the
volume at which it was recorded.
TIP In some cases, setting the play level to +12 dB may make the
sound more likely to distort.
DELETE SAMPLE
Deletes the sample.
TIP In some cases, deleting preset samples or user samples might
not increase the available sampling time. In this case, defrag-
ment the memory as described in “EXPORT ALL SAMPLE” on
page 9.
TIP It will no longer be possible to select the preset sample num-
bers with the Oscillator knob. If you want to use the preset
samples again, execute FACTORY RESET.
TIP You can hear a preview playback by pressing a trigger pad.
TIP The Filter, Modulation, Amp/EG, and Insert FX sections are
disabled while you’re editing a sample.
TIP When editing a sample, Voice Assign is set to Mono 2.
About time slice
What is time slice?
Time slice is a function by which a sample that contains clear at-
tacks, such as a rhythm phrase, can be divided into beats and
assigned to steps. For example, this function can detect the attacks in
a rhythm phrase consisting of kick, snare, and hi-hat, and divide the
sampled phrase into notes.
By assigning a time-sliced sample to each step, you can obtain a
natural-sounding performance even if you change the BPM.
You can also assign individual time-sliced samples to parts as
one-shot samples.
Creating a time-sliced sample
1. In the SAMPLE EDIT screen, use the Value knob to select a
monaural sample that you want to time-slice.
You can’t time-slice stereo samples.
2. Access the TIME SLICE screen, and press the Menu/Enter
button. Time slice is executed automatically, and the number of
steps and the beat are displayed.
TIP The start point and end point is automatically specified for
each of the divided samples produced when you time-slice.
You can’t change these points. When you time-slice a
sample, it is no longer possible to play the entire sample in
its original condition.
3. Turn the Value knob to specify the number of steps into which
you want to divide the sample. Hold down the Shift button and
turn the Value knob to specify the beat. You can specify the beat
as one of four choices: 16, 32, 8 Tri, or 16 Tri.
TIP When using a time-sliced sample in a pattern, the steps to
which the time slices are assigned will change if the beat
setting of the pattern differs from this setting.
4. Press the Menu/Enter button to make the display indicate
“Threshold:” and specify the sensitivity at which the time slices
are detected; this adjusts the way in which the notes are divided.
As you use the Value knob to change the threshold, the way in
which the notes are divided will change. You can adjust the
sensitivity in a range of 0–32. Lower values produce a higher
sensitivity, causing the time slices to be detected in greater
detail. The trigger pads are illuminated to indicate the position
of each sliced note. You can press a trigger pad to hear the note
that’s assigned to the corresponding location.
TIP If you specify a number of steps greater than 16 in step 3,
you can use the step buttons to change the region of time-
sliced steps that are shown.
5. Hold down the Shift button and press a trigger pad to enable/
disable the corresponding region. Make settings for regions that
could not be detected, or delete regions that you don’t want.
TIP If you change the sensitivity, it may take a little time for the
divisions to change. Depending on the volume and type of
the sample, there may be cases in which changing the
sensitivity does not change the divisions.
If the beat is set to 8 Tri or 16 Tri, steps 13–16 are not used.
6. When you have finished making all adjustments, press the Write
button to save the sample.
TIP If you decide to cancel before finishing the operation, press
the Exit button.

7
Using a time-sliced sample
Using the entire sample
Use the Oscillator knob to select a time-sliced sample. The display
indicates “SLICE” when you select a time-sliced sample.
If you select trigger pad mode “Sequencer” and turn all steps On,
the samples divided at the specified locations are played consecu-
tively. You can also edit by turning each step on/off.
Using a sliced sample as one-shot samples
Use the Oscillator knob to select a time-sliced sample. The display
indicates “SLICE” when you select a time-sliced sample. By continu-
ing to turn the Oscillator knob you can select the divided samples;
e.g., [Sample number]-01, etc.
Canceling time-slice
1. In the SAMPLE EDIT screen, use the Value knob to select the
sample for which you want to cancel time-slice.
2. Access the CLEAR SLICE screen, and press the Menu/Enter
button.
3. When the display indicates “OK,” press the Write button to save.
If you decide not to cancel time-slice, press the Exit button.
6. GLOBAL PARAMETERS
These parameters are settings for the entire electribe sampler.
TIP Global parameters are saved automatically when you turn off
the power. You can also save the settings by pressing the Write
button while editing global parameters.
TRIGGER MODE..................................... [Normal, Seq 1st, Seq Play]
Specifies what happens when you strike a trigger pad in Trigger
mode.
Normal: The C4 note is sounded.
Seq 1st: The first note recorded in the part is sounded. If not
even one note is recorded, the C4 note is sounded.
Seq Play: The sequence recorded in the part plays while you
hold down the trigger pad.
VELOCITY CURVE .........................[Heavy, Normal, Light, Const96]
Selects how the volume and tone respond to the trigger pad velocity
(the force of your strike).
Heavy: Heavy response. This curve lets you obtain an effect
when you play strongly.
Normal: Normal response.
Light: Light response. This curve lets you obtain an effect
without having to play strongly.
Const96: The velocity value will always be 96.
CLOCK MODE.......................................................................................
.......... [Internal, Auto, External USB, External MIDI, External Sync]
Selects the clock to which the electribe sampler’s tempo is synchro-
nized.
If you select an external clock, the electribe sampler’s sequencer and
other tempo-synchronized settings (such as Delay Time) are all
synchronized to the external device.
Internal: The electribe sampler’s internal clock is the basis for
synchronization. Choose this setting if you’re using the electribe
sampler by itself, or if you're using the electribe sampler as the
master device that controls other synchronized devices.
Auto: If MIDI clock data from an external MIDI device con-
nected to the MIDI IN connector (or USB connector) is received,
the electribe sampler automatically operates as with the “Exter-
nal MIDI” or “External USB” setting. If there is no input, the
electribe sampler operates as with the “Internal” setting. If clock
data is received from a device connected to the Sync In jack, the
electribe sampler operates as with the “External Sync” setting.
TIP The order of priority for the selected signal is External USB,
External MIDI, and then External Sync.
External USB: The electribe sampler synchronizes to MIDI clock
data from a PC connected to the USB connector.
External MIDI: The electribe sampler synchronizes to MIDI
clock data from an external MIDI device connected to the MIDI
IN connector.
External Sync: The electribe sampler synchronizes to clock data
from a device connected to the Sync In jack.
TIP For details on synchronization-related settings for your
external MIDI device or for a device connected to the Sync
jack, refer to the owner's manual of your device.
GLOBAL MIDI CH................................................................. [01…16]
Specifies the MIDI channel of the electribe sampler.
If you want to transmit or receive program changes or system
exclusive messages, set the MIDI channel to match the MIDI channel
of the connected MIDI device.
MIDI RECEIVE FILTER ...........................[Off, Short, Short+Program]
Specifies which MIDI messages are not received.
OFF: All messages are received.
Short: Short messages (Note On/Off, Control Change) are not
received.
Short + Program: Short messages and program change messages
are not received.

8
MIDI SEND FILTER ................................[Off, Short, Short+Program]
Specifies which MIDI messages are not transmitted.
OFF: All messages are transmitted.
Short: Short messages (Note On/Off, Control Change) are not
transmitted.
Short + Program: Short messages and program change messages
are not transmitted.
SYNC POLARITY ......................................................................[Hi, Lo]
Specifies the polarity of the Sync trigger signal when synchronizing
the performance with a device connected to the Sync jack.
SYNC UNIT ...............................................................[1 Step, 2 Steps]
Specifies the cycle of the synchronization signal that is output from
the Sync Out jack to advance the step, relative to the synchronization
signal received at the Sync In jack.
1 step: When a sync signal is input, the electribe sampler ad-
vances by one step. A sync signal is output at each step.
2 steps: When a sync signal is input, the electribe sampler
advances by two steps. A sync signal is output at every two
steps.
METRONOME ....................................... [Off, Rec 0, Rec 1, Rec 2, On]
Specifies the setting of the metronome function. The metronome is
convenient when you’re using realtime recording to create a pattern.
The metronome sounds at quarter-note timing. If this setting is On,
the metronome always sounds during recording.
If this is Off, the metronome does not sound. If this is set to Rec 0,
Rec 1, or Rec 2, the metronome sounds only during recording. With
the Rec 0 setting, there is no pre-count.
TEMPO LOCK ........................................................................[Off , On]
If this is On, the current tempo setting is locked. The tempo will not
change even if you switch to a pattern that has a different tempo.
KNOB MODE ...........................................[Jump, Catch, Value Scale]
Specifies what happens when the knob position does not match the
actual value of the parameter.
Jump: When you turn a knob, the parameter value jumps to the
value indicated by the knob. This is a good setting to use when
you're editing, since it's easy to detect the result of turning the
knob.
Catch: When you turn a knob, the parameter value does not start
changing until the knob reaches the actual value of the param-
eter This is a good setting to use when you're performing, since
it prevents the sound from changing suddenly.
Value Scale: When you turn a knob, the parameter value in-
creases or decreases in a relative way, in the direction that you
turned the knob. When the knob reaches its full extent in either
direction, the parameter value also reaches its maximum or
minimum; once the knob and parameter value are matched, the
knob and parameter values change in tandem.
If the parameter value does not change
Sometimes, the parameter value might not change when you turn
the knob to left or right.
In this case, the KNOB MODE is set to “Catch.” With the “Catch”
setting, the value does not change until the knob position matches
the actual value of the parameter that you’re editing (the value
shown in the main display).
With the “Catch” setting, the knob and value change in tandem
only after the knob position has reached the actual value; this
prevents the sound from changing in an unnaturally sudden way.
With the “Jump” setting, moving the knob causes the actual value
to change immediately to the position of the knob.
Suppose that you switch programs, and the actual value of the
parameter assigned to the knob is now at the position indicated by
the triangle in the illustration.
The parameter value will not change until you turn the knob to that
position.
Suppose that you've turned a knob to edit a certain parameter,
and the knob is in the position shown.
Once the knob has reached the position that corresponding to the
actual value, the parameter value and the knob position will be
linked, and the value will change as you turn the knob.
TOUCH SCALE RANGE..............................[1 Oct, 2 Oct, 3 Oct, 4 Oct]
Specifies the pitch range that is assigned to the touch pad when
using the touch scale function.
TIP To change the pitch range, press the Keyboard button and then
press a step button.
LCD CONTRAST ...................................................................... [1…25]
Adjusts the contrast of the text in the display.
AUDIO IN THRU .................................................................... [Off, On]
Specifies whether input from the Audio In jack is output from the
Audio Out L/R jacks.
BATTERY TYPE............................................................ [Ni-MH, Alkali]
Specifies the type of batteries that are being used.
Ni-MH: Choose this setting if you’re using nickel-metal hydride
batteries.
Alkali: Choose this setting if you’re using alkaline batteries.
AUTO POWER OFF................................................. [Disable, 4 hours]
Specifies whether the power automatically turns off when no knobs
or buttons have been operated for a certain length of time. With the
factory settings, this is set to “4 hours.”
Disable: The auto power-off function is disabled. The power
does not turn off automatically.
4 hours: If four hours elapses without any of the electribe
sampler’s buttons, knobs, or trigger pad being operated, the
power turns off automatically.
TIP Even if a pattern is playing continuously, the power turns off
automatically if absolutely no operation has been performed
for the specified time. Choose the “Disable” setting if you don’t
want the power to turn off automatically.
POWER SAVE MODE..................................... [Disable, Auto, Enable]
Enables or disables power save mode. When you use the electribe
sampler on batteries, it operates in power save mode; the display
backlight and LEDs are dimmed.
Disable: Power save mode is disabled.
Auto: Power save mode is enabled when using the electribe sam-
pler on batteries, and disabled when using it with the AC adapter.
Enable: Power save mode is enabled at all times.
TIP If the display backlight is dim, the screen might appear to
flicker depending on the surrounding lighting conditions.

9
PTN. CHANGE LOCK............................................................. [Off, On]
Limits how the VALUE knob will change patterns in the pattern
select screen.
Off: The pattern changes when you operate the VALUE knob.
On: The pattern changes when you operate the VALUE knob
while holding down the Shift button.
CHAIN MODE........................................................................ [Off, On]
Turning this parameter On enables the CHAIN MODE.
If this parameter is set to Off, the individual CHAIN TO and CHAIN
REPEAT parameters of each Pattern will have no effect.
XY CALIBRATION
Calibrates the operating range of the touch pad.
Following the procedure described in the display, touch the lower
left and upper right corners of the touch pad to specify the operable
region.
7. DATA UTILITY
These functions let you write data to or read data from a memory
card, update the system, or return the instrument to the factory-set
state.
EXPORT PATTERN
This function exports the currently selected pattern to the memory
card.
The file is exported in the format of KORG\electribe sampler\
[pattern number]_[pattern name].e2spat. If an identically-named file
already exists, it is overwritten.
TIP If an identically-named file already exists, it is overwritten.
TIP If the pattern is being edited, the edited form of the pattern is
exported even if you have not yet pressed the Write button to
save it.
EXPORT ALL PATTERN
This function exports all patterns and global parameters to the
memory card as a single file. The exported file is KORG\electribe
sampler\electribe_sampler_allpattern.e2sallpat on the memory card.
If an identically-named file already exists, it is overwritten.
IMPORT PATTERN
This function imports a pattern file (.e2spat file) that was exported
by the EXPORT PATTERN function.
SELECT SOURCE.........................................................[Card, Sync In]
Selects the import source. You can select either the memory card
or data input from the Sync In jack. If importing from the
memory card, specify an .e2pat format file.
IMPORT ALL PATTERN
From the memory card, this function imports all patterns and global
parameters contained in an .e2sallpat file that was exported by the
EXPORT ALL PATTERN function.
INITIALIZE PATTERN
This function initializes all data of the currently selected pattern.
Each part’s sound data and sequence data including motion se-
quence data, as well as the tempo, length, and beat are reset to the
initial state.
EXPORT AUDIO
This function exports the currently selected pattern to the memory
card as WAV files.
The files are exported to the KORG\electribe sampler\[pattern num-
ber]_[pattern name] Project\Audio folder of the memory card.
SELECT TYPE .............................. [Ableton Live Set, WAV File Only]
Selects the file format that is exported.
Ableton Live Set: In addition to the WAV files, an Ableton live
project file (.als file) is also exported.
If there are more than nine parts in which the trigger is turned
on for any step, a separate Lite.als file for Ableton Live Lite is
also exported.
TIP: The .als file for Ableton Live Lite is a project file containing
up to eight parts in which a trigger-on has been recorded,
starting with part 1.
WAV File Only: Only WAV files are exported. An Ableton Live
project file is not exported.
EXPORT P.SET AUDIO
Using this function, patterns that are registered as a pattern set can
be exported as WAV files.
Specify the range of set numbers for which patterns registered as a
pattern set are exported as WAV files.
The files are exported to the KORG\electribe sampler\PatternSet
Project\Audio folder of the memory card.

10
SELECT START........................................................................ [1...64]
Specifies the starting number of the range of pattern sets that
you want to export.
SELECT END ........................................................................... [1...64]
Specifies the ending number of the range of pattern sets that you
want to export.
SELECT TYPE .............................. [Ableton Live Set, WAV File Only]
Selects the file format that is exported. (→ see “EXPORT AU-
DIO”)
EXPORT CHAIN AUDIO
Using this function, you can export individual audio files for each pattern
contained in the song or pattern sequence created using the CHAIN TO
and CHAIN REPEAT parameters, beginning with the currently selected
pattern. The files are exported to the memory card in the KORG/electribe
sampler/Chain_From_[pattern number] Project folder.
TIP When exporting, the playback of each pattern is exported only
once, regardless of the CHAIN REPEAT parameter setting.
TIP Even if the CHAIN TO parameter creates an unending play-
back loop, each pattern is exported only once. Example: When
repeating Patterns 1→2→1→2→1... Pattern 1 and Pattern 2 are
exported only once, as individual files each containing one
loop of playback.
SELECT TYPE .............................. [Ableton Live Set, WAV File Only]
Selects the file format that is exported. (→ see “EXPORT AU-
DIO”)
IMPORT SAMPLE
From the memory card, this function imports a WAV file or an .
e2sSample.all file that was exported by the EXPORT ALL SAMPLE
function.
TIP WAV files created by the electribe sampler’s EXPORT SAMPLE
function contain editing data such as time slice information. If
you use a waveform editing application to edit the sample, this
editing data is lost, and cannot be recovered even if you load it
by IMPORT SAMPLE.
EXPORT SAMPLE
This function exports the currently selected sample to the memory
card as a WAV file.
EXPORT ALL SAMPLE
This function exports all preset samples and user samples to the
memory card as the single file KORG/electribe sampler/Sample/
e2sSample.all. This exported file is automatically loaded the next
time that you turn on the power, restoring the state of all samples.
TIP If you execute EXPORT ALL SAMPLE after deleting samples,
the file is exported in a defragmented state. By loading this file
at startup, you can increase the available user sampling time.
TIP Only one e2sSample.all file can be saved in the folder. User
samples are not loaded if you delete the e2sSample.all file from
the specified folder, or if you use a different card on which an
e2sSample.all file is not saved.
CARD FORMAT
This function formats (initializes) the memory card and creates the
folders that are needed by the electribe sampler.
FACTORY RESET
Returns all settings of the electribe sampler to their factory-set state.
SOFTWARE UPDATE
Updates the system software of the electribe sampler. Obtain the
update file from the Korg website, use your computer to copy it to
the specified folder of a memory card, insert the memory card into
the electribe sampler, and then execute this function.
8. EVENT REC/PLAY
These functions let you record a performance that uses several
patterns, or a performance that includes knob or trigger pad opera-
tions during the performance.
TIP The EVENT REC/PLAY functions are available if the CLOCK
MODE is set to Internal.
EVENT RECORDER
When you record using the Event Recorder, the data is written to the
KORG\electribe sampler folder as a file named e_[number].e2sev.
TIP There can be a maximum of 100 files.
EVENT PLAYER
Open Player
Selects an e2ev file recorded by the Event Recorder.
Enter: Start Play: Press the Enter button to start playback.
