(Above shows Japanese releases - the UK version of this picture omits the Miku Stomp Box, so looks like Miku is for domestic Japan release only).

Volca Sample

Electribe Music Production Station

Electribe Sampler

Good to see some more tuners in there. You can never check the tuning of instruments enough. It's always good to have a second, third, fifth, tenth... hundredth... opinion for that pitch-perfect note.

That Mika pedal is odd.

Any prices on the new Electribes yet?

Thanks for sharing! Can't say that any of new releases really excite me, but both Electribes definitely look interesting - just can't figure out how they really differ from technical point of view - if Electribe sampler has both sample/slice/loop support and modeling, then what is the advantage of just Electribe? Also interesting - can sounds be triggered from outside via midi?

Are you an EMX owner? I suppose not, because then you would have been very, very happy about these new devices. Everything the EMX is lacking has been added, plus a small Kaoss Pad and the ability to run it on batteries. The Sampler and the normal Electribe are two different things, which will perfectly work together (hopefully)

You are right, I'm not EMX user, so obviously that is why I don't understand how they differ. I also cautiously look at number which says 250 patterns (200 factory +50 user) - hopefully with realtime pattern manipulation, SD support and Ableton integration this won't be an issue. Just recall my early experience with QY20 - 128 user patterns were filled in two months and without reasonable data exchange it completely lost it's usability.

There is an usb jack so you will very probably be able to export pattern data. Hopefully one can automate 'mute' and 'solo' buttons, so that a song does not need 4 pattern with diferent parts to be muted.

You can export Ableton project files like you can on ios gadget now. Be cool if it was bus powered too!
I would of killed to be able to export into Ableton in 2003.

Ableton export is going to seriously increase my use of iGadget!

Why only 999 Samples with the Electribe Sampler ??????

We have 2014

On a 32gb SD Card you can store 10.000 Samples

I wanna have one layer of 20 different folders where the samples are stored.

Another 10 years to wait for this ???

Damn !!!
