Sample/osc screen popup

Post by flieger »

All,
i'm new to the Electribe 2.
As i'm messing around, I notice that I often get a screen popup that says SAMPLE/OSC, and shows some numbers changing up or down.
What is this screen and how can I prevent it from popping up unexpectedly?

Thanks!

Sounds like a problem with the PCB or one of the components (intermittent connection). My Monologue has a similar problem, which goes away when I apply some pressure to an area of the PCB (I couldn't find any visible clues). I managed to "fix" it by using an improvised shim inside the unit, between the case and the PCB, to keep constant pressure in that area. I had bought it used for a low price (probably due to that problem), so there was no way to make a warranty claim anyway.

Hi there! I also encountered the SAMPLE/OSC screen popup using my Electribe 2. It's a bit frustrating when it pops up unexpectedly, but it sounds like a problem with the PCB or a component. Have you tried reaching out to the manufacturer or a tech support team to see if they have any suggestions for fixing the issue? I also make popups for my job, and I've found that promolayer.io's popup maker is user-friendly and easy to use and helps to avoid such issues. It's helped streamline my work process, but I understand if you're not looking for recommendations at the moment. Hope this helps, and good luck with your Electribe!
