Hey, I have two drum machines: a Korg EMX-1 and a Korg Electribe 2.

The EMX-1 has 8 bars, while the Electribe 2 only has 4 bars per pattern.

What I’d like to do is run the Electribe 2 at half the BPM of the EMX-1, so I can effectively match the 8-bar structure.

The problem is: when I sync them via MIDI, they share the same BPM, so this doesn’t work.

Is there any way to:

  • keep them MIDI synced
  • but have different effective speeds (like one running at half tempo)?

And yeah, manually pressing play at the same time is not an option for a live set 😅

Did you have any idea? Thanks!
