[@helloitsnicko]

Luke Fromkorg is the best 💥

[@tonipepperoni3424]

Luke really knows these korg synths and he explains them so well I wanna hear more from this chap

[@cwxdaf152]

The modular is my favourite by far. The scale quantisation function should be on everything. You can't hit a bum note!

[@HotStrange]

The reverb makes it sound so metallic and tinny. I love it.

[@ImplosiveCatt]

Modular stuff gets you far away from initial thought and that+s why I love Buchla.

[@nomad1517]

Amazing for drone music.

[@fortheloveofnoise]

Jack The Mack and Luke The Duke

[@donramsay169]

Mr volca please please a proper mixer. 5 stereo channels, tones , 2 sends ,pan ,mute (aux out) mixer link ,some basic sync able fx. Ideal for 5 volca set up (or multiples there of ).no speakers no battery's no faders or any of the other "features" found on the right side of the 1st mixer. The power option is a good idea, but if you've got more than 2 volca 's that would be covered already

[@hardgainer7396]

AMEN, sir...

[@ruxiwang9571]

there's volca mixer.

[@LoVeAmBiEnT]

I'm using an Allen & Heath px5 initially was for DJing but now I have volca s and a microfreak plug into it... and since I've been DJing since 1996 and am just out of my mind board with it this seems to be more fun

[@Russ_Hell-Russell_Stevens]

The beat at 14:06 sounds like the opening theme in Super Metroid.

[@thombroom5515]

Luke from Korg is a legend...

[@lydiamacintyre3729]

"Rumbling my buttocks!"

[@trevormalcolm4328]

Volca Modular been out a while now but I was never really interested until this video! Nice work guys.

[@brownmoney27]

what does he think a pun is?

[@ChrisWeinhardt]

I'm a simple man. I see Jack and Luke, I upvote.

[@mihajlosinka277]

korg should make huge modular synth with alot of cheap modules. if volca keys is around 200 bucks, imagine only one oscillator but built like volcas...

[@fortheloveofnoise]

The Modular and Drum are the best Volcas to date!

[@thomasraven]

The snare prob on the drum is a deal breaker.

[@HotStrange]

Thomas Kirby There’s no snare problem on the Drum. There isn’t even a “snare” on the Drum. What are you on about?

[@HotStrange]

Agreed completely! Love my Drum and have a Modular on the way :)

[@MicaelAzevedo]

@@HotStrange i think he was speaking about the beats.

[@tonalaxis]

Good walkthrough from Luke.

I love that built in reverb!

Nobody will hear that

The sloppy woggle.

[@keithjack38]

The "dankness" love it!!

[@noiselabproject9659]

`A Keystep Pro` ......... if only it existed, many have been asking for it but it`s still not here .... boo hoo

[@HotStrange]

Arturia has to be planning one by this point. So many people are clamoring for it, they’d be foolish not to.

[@totalbrainfail1812]

Well you must be in a good mood now!

[@mikeexits]

@@totalbrainfail1812 Keystep Pro for my hardware + Arturia Keylab mkii for my VSTs and V Collection = Creative Heaven Hopefully I'll be able to upgrade from my Minilab mkii and original Keystep sometime in the next few years haha

[@jeremyhill1973]

Jack and Luke forever!!!

[@richarquis]

Luke: "Wavefold." Jack: "Ben Folds Five... Sorry, I promise to try and stop making puns." [2-3 Minutes later...] Jack: "The dankness... Dank Williams."

[@sadacksounds2986]

Want want want the volca modular 😍😍😍🦇🦇🦇

[@LuxscapeMusic]

Wave forms fold into each other and we go back to zero.

[@SanplerVarondaro]

muy buen video bro

[@dhammarosi]

Noo, give us excited jack, not subdued jack. Gotta be you!

[@legendhero8966]

Volca modular = master piece

[@SouthShoreSonics]

Korg: Not available in Canada yet!

[@dinogoldie9716]

Is there a less fiddly alternative on the market? Is there a semimodular Westcoast synth for

[@mikeexits]

The form factor is a big part of why it's priced so relatively low. At that point the only recommendation I have is getting a VST emulation like Arturia's Buchla V or Synthi V (honestly I can't figure out if the Synthi is a west or east coast synth, I just assume west because of the esoteric-looking interface and color scheme). VCV Rack is a free modular synth software that probably has enough west coast-inspired modules for most people's needs. There are likely tons of free Reaktor ensembles as well, which you can use in the free Reaktor Player software.

[@dinogoldie9716]

@@mikeexits VSTs are no good to me (accessibility). It has to be hardware.

[@mikeexits]

@@dinogoldie9716 Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, the Volca Modular is the only game in town that fits your criteria. Bastl has made the Kastl and Kastl Drum and they're even cheaper, but far more limited, and I don't even know if you can call those west coast. Getting West Coast modules would be pretty costly if you're going for a fully featured synth, but the tradeoff is that it can fit your needs better than anything else due to its, well, modularity. You *might* like the Make Noise 0-Coast, but it's not technically west coast either. Sorry I couldn't be of any more help.

[@mikeexits]

@@dinogoldie9716 Oh hey, just remembered something called the Erica Synths Pico 3, that's within your budget and it uses some West coast terminology. Might be worth looking into.

[@dinogoldie9716]

​@@mikeexits Thanks for the recommendations. I'm very interested in Make Noise's 0-Coast but I'm going to have to put that on next year's birthday/Christmas lists.

[@richardcnrd8302]

he has the best reactions to the wobble settings lol

[@pascalforweb]

Hello, i try to use the volca modular with an external eurorack sequencer. When i send the pitch cv the tracking is very imprecise and does not follow the one volt per octave. Is it an expected behavior?

[@thestatpow5]

iirc every volca as a Global setting that you can change that makes the Sync voltage low or high. Not sure if this volca's got it for the CV but check the global settings on google. might help.

[@ithaca2076]

dudes never seen breadboard cables?

[@Paparumbo]

Volca mixer is wank.

[@HailSatanFuckGod666]

Shed its an overpriced power supply with tinny speakers and volume faders

[@DaraM73]

If only Andertons could ship Korg gear without it being smashed, I might consider this on-screen marriage to be a happy one.

[@mikeexits]

As far as I can tell, the usual culprits of damaged packages are FedEx/UPS employees tossing packages around like banana peels in nature.

[@troublesomecorsair]

Volca Modular cool. No interest in getting one, or even two. But Luke is here, so...

[@mc2engineeringprof]

Hmmm. Ok. Well, maybe it'll be more fun and I can make it sound better once I plug in my MIDI controller keybo...oh, shit. Damn. Fail.

[@HotStrange]

It’s not a fail. The west coast style that is made in is not conducive to that kind of workflow. You just don’t get it I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@mc2engineeringprof]

@@HotStrange You mean the "built-in-speaker, battery-powered, key strip, knob-less pots, under $200, fits in a backpack, made to sync to other Volcas, single 1/8th inch jack audio output... et al) workflow?' Sure. Ok

[@HotStrange]

Brian McCalla Sorry didn’t realize you were such a pretentious ass or I would’ve been more rude in my original comment. $200 yes. And you can get a fully analog synth with 2 filters, 2 VCOs, envelopes, various modulators, sample and hold, built in effect, over 50 patch points, a step sequencer with motion sequencing, per step parameter locks, chain/song mode, randomize, and many different kinds of scales. That’s a lot of features for $200. And it’s not made just to sync to other Volcas but I see the fine details of CV and Modular go over your head. Don’t make an ass of yourself just because you don’t get/don’t know what west coast synthesis is and can’t see why every synth has its place. I swear people like you ruin this community.

[@mc2engineeringprof]

@@HotStrange and it's fanboys like you who keep encouraging the hw synth makers to keep putting out total garbage. Enjoy your Volca drum er beats er kick er sample er drum, yeah, guess it is a drum. It'll go well with your Volca "NU" Bass and your Volca Bass and your Volca Kick Bass Drum and Bass synth. Hell, even D&B Producers think that the Volca series has been stuck on Drum and Bass "zero creativity" for ages now. But the fanboys just keep encouraging Korg to do nothing by paying them for such. Sad.

[@HotStrange]

Brian McCalla lmao I don’t even own any of the Volcas you mentioned besides the Drum and Sample so I guess now you’re pulling arguments out of thin air to make a “point”, those 2 and the FM and Modular are the furthest things from drum n bass possible. Clearly you have waaaay too small of an understanding of synthesis and how synths work in general to be reasoned with. I’m not sure which big D&B producers you know that say that but I’m deep in my local synth community and everyone here, as well as the literal thousands of fans and producers that use them disagree so guess you’re wrong 🤷🏻‍♂️ Go on any music forum and ask for people’s opinions. The majority are gonna agree that they are nice, fun, functional, and highly usable machines. The few that don’t agree are the insufferable, untalented fuckwits like you that have no creativity or ingenuity available to pull from to make something good with these machines. Get over yourself my guy.

[@romain448]

Shittiest volca ever. No midi. No CV control like basic module gate and pitch control, to sinc up with m'y set up i have to send gate signal from my beatstep intro sync in, or midi into volca keys and sync out. "Cool" sound but unusable if you can't mod it. Better buy a module and start really to go info modular. Terrible product imo to avoid.
