5 years later and this composition it still sounds really creative, rudimental and fun

This was actually really beautiful!

Do you have any of your music available streaming?

That’s funny, I’m literally finishing up an album of lofi hip hop chill songs like this. I used my old Dr Groove from the 90’s. I had totally forgotten how to use it! This is great stuff. I’d bring the samples down a couple db. But I love the sounds!

💖🎉💖

wow, great 😏

You’re back! Your vids got me into volcas waaaay back in 2020. You haven’t missed a beat. Chillaxing as always ❤❤❤❤

4mb of memory.... yeah fuck that

Dadhop is Besthop

Which one should you recommend to get drum noises like the band called Provoker

hey! we need some more little music !! 🤘

Good to see/hear you again 😎

Welcome back! Excited to see more of Little Music Boxes

Nice to have you back. Lovely chill session. ❤

Hey, man! We miss your videos

soo good wow

I can tell you like the plain white boring colors your whole video is white

The white one looks boring to me I like the black better as far as looks go

Travis hey. How are you. I miss your tutorials about web design. I've been following you since DevTips. I hope to see you teach us how to code again. Hope to hear from you again.

goddam cool man ..

This sounds great. Curious if you have used it with the Volca Sample or any other drum machines. I imagine it would sound pretty great. Does this pedal have the filter knob that the Memory Man Hazarai has?

Travis, you made nice and chill music. I really like them. 😍

Idk what this is but it's from the hearth 😊

Thank you so much for this very helpful video! I never owned any device like this and don't know much about music creation, I'm just searching which one to get as a surprise gift my son who started electronic music creation. I'll got with the sampler for its versatility (may get the Drum later though haha!).

This made me fall in love with my Volca all over again. Beautiful work. I specially love the texture you created with the vocals. And that smooth little loop? Yes. Found this on Reddit btw. Thank you!

nobody cares - just play it.

Thank you 🙏

Not only did I learn a lot, but I really had so much fun watching this and listening to you!

I am just curious. Why would you need a sample based external equipment, if the samples already can be played with the Live11 of any DAW. But yes, if you live loop Dawless, make sense.

Ive got both and think they work great together ❤

Finished dinner, back to work at the computer. Put on another synth video, woke up at bedtime :P

Criminal view count man. Awesome work 👏

Nice🖖

Really great comparison man thank you! I am considering buying both volca drum, sample 2 also but I am worried I will be disappointed in the sound quality of 16bit samples on my monitors compared to using a daw with better samples what do they sound like to you on a proper speaker system??

Awesome man. Definitely sticking to the Sample one then.

12:33 " hahahaha" thats going to my new volca sample right away :D

This is a killer track mate.

Where have you been mate.?

How many bowls of weed did you smoke b4 u made this bro?

A delightful piece. While I'd love to hear more from you, don't force it.

Aaaahh. Found you at last. Was not sure what your doing nowadays. Hi there Travis, im your humble devtips follower, used to watch all your videos. Love to see your experiment with usic

I'm high now, and it's definitely a choir of angels.

Koala sampler is hands down best sampler for the money if you have a decent tablet/phone. I got the Volca drum and it is amazing fun!

Trav I didn't know you had gotten into bitty beats. So funny because I remember your dev tips videos. Just ran across this! So funn

"playability is the ability to be played"

I own both of these; they're both great, just different flavors. I know what sounds I'm gonna get when I pick one up, so it just depends on how I'm feeling.

I wonder why no one demonstrates the volca sampler 1 or 2 on creating samples on the fly?

That really surprises me that you like the design of the Sample better. I'm a developer and I'm always frustrated by how bad people are at UX. You can prioritize simplicity and functionality while still making something beautiful. The Sample comes from the Windows 3.11 school of design. The display should obviously have been in the big empty space at the top, but it's a repurposed design. It's got the crowded throw-all-the-tiny-knobs-you-can-in-a-grid layout of the Keys with a color scheme like an Akai. Akais are themselves an homage to ugly beige 1980s PC aesthetics. The only interesting part of the Sample design is the isolator section. That's really nice and functional, but it's unfortunate that they were lazy and left the sad little 4-character display in the same place as other Volcas. It's literally the worst place they could have put the isolator. If you use the isolator during a performance, your thumbs are covering the display and the lights for which parts are firing - which is basically all the meaningful visual feedback from the device. The Drum design is interesting and creative and beautifully simple. They weren't just seeing how many knobs they could fit. They actually had enough room to put that Wankel rotary engine etching on the face of it. The display on the Drum really blows me away. That alone makes it stand out as the most interesting-looking Volca. It's an homage to 1980s Tiger handheld games (they probably got the idea from the Pocket Operator displays). The layers and the interaction with the wave guide is clever in a way that makes it fun to noodle around with. I don't just feel like I'm going through pages of settings on an Elektron box. But if you're not super-excited about the display on the Drum the black and gold sorta-blingy aesthetic is a bit silly. The Volca Bass is blingy and charming. I think the Drum should've done something more subtle and maybe leaned into the amber/orange of the knobs/display. The gold with the big arrow pointing at the Wave Guide isn't awesome. Kinda makes me wanna disassemble it and paint the right half.
