Best Volca machine that Korg has released so far
-
You need this, I plugged it in a studio with High Quality sound system, and the Volca sound great, I can see my self performing live with this little beast and having a blast.
-
So it's a really satisfying experience, and I recommend the Volca to anyone who wants a sampler that's fun to play.
-
Fortunately, the Volca FM has a trick up its sleeve: access to online libraries of Yamaha DX7 patches created and reproduced as sysex files from 1983 to the present, and available all over the web
-
For example, I recorded a simple C2 note in a great app called iFretless Bass, sent it to the Caustic Volca Editor via AudioShare, and had a pitch tuned electric bass sound available on my Sample, and the whole process took maybe a couple of minutes
-
If you know that your primary goal is to use your Volca for single note bass grooves or lead tones, get the Bass.
-
It comes with niceties that are new to the Volca line like Pan, Swing, Reverb, and a 2-band EQ that all come in really handy

CLEAN A VOLCA WITH ALCOHOL
-
Like the Volca Keys, the Volca FM’s sequences may be played back at half or a quarter of tempo setting, synchronized or internal.
-
The Volca beats sounds like a classic beatbox.
-
However, the Volca Sample has a Song Mode which would have been welcome on the other Volcas as well as the Volca
-
For those who have programmed multiple operator FM synthesizers, like the DX7, should easily figure out the Volca FM.
-
The Caustic Volca Editor easily links up with an app called AudioShare to import samples stored on your device, or imported from a cloud service like DropBox.
