good vid. Drum is the best...well, drum machine of the Volca series IMO. Beats is way too limited. and Kick is even more so. i use Drum mostly for high hat and it's splicing feature. but i know you can probably get great snare from it. but, like you, i don't mess with the sound design too much.

Thank you! ❤ I'm guessing you mean slicing, and not splicing? It definitely seems like the most versatile Volca drum machine, and I'm guessing it would compare favorably to other non-Korg drum machines at a similar price range.

its quite peculiar, but it has these sounds that nicely punch through a mix and add excitement imho, so for me its more a percussion element. that and the simple sine drums punch so hard...useful for that "in your face" punch :)

Interestingly, another user recently commented (on one of the my jam videos) that the drums on the drum were too weak, and didn't work well in mixes with other volca units... ! Seemed to be because it's digital, and not analog. I don't have enough experience to tell the difference, but I like it a lot - peculiarities and all.

⁠@@MilesJamsi think on their own as an only drum machine i kinda agree. Its not versatile enough. I mean if it works for your music cool, but in general no. But as an additional percussive element its gold imho

its a drum synth, not a "normal" drum machine, so you should be familiar with synths, but sure, more knobs always helps :)
@MilesJams
@MilesJams 7 күн бұрын
When in doubt, add more knobs! Thank you for pointing it out, hadn't even considered the difference; it's a li'l machine that is made to make drum sounds ergo "drum machine", had been my thinking.

The drum is the least Volca sounding of the Volca’s IMHO, had o e and found it a bit lightweight sounding and didn’t fit in the mix amongst other volcas.
@MilesJams

Sorry to hear that! I don't own enough Volcas to tell. Guessing the sound isn't sufficiently "big" or "punchy" when put next to the others?

What you need to do is go into the Global Parameters, then change "Tempo range settings" to full. That changes the BPM range from 56-240 (which is the factory setting) to 10-600. Search for the Korg Volca drum user manual online to see how you can get into the Global Parameters. Hope that helps. 👍
