The Korg Volca Drum - A Portable Modular Powerhouse Drum Synth!

[@elsantoproductora]

I love Jack, he seems such a cool guy

[@S4V0LAEN3N]

New Volcas seem to be all so SO *GREAT!* Nubass, modular, this one.. . Almost like I'm in love! To this little machines. :D

[@TheoVoidTV]

I love this volca. You can get some insane and intense sounds out of it. I primarily use it to make sounds to sample into my digitakt. Thinking about getting the modular too. This thing reminds me of the old electribe with that waveguide resonator Love it

[@herbertdruschke503]

yeah, always feeling well entertained and informed by these guys. interesting and inspiring concept to me, this volca drum(synth), providing opportunities to travel in exciting sonic territories and acting as a companion for my tr-8.

[@tonyhill8963]

Love when these 2 review stuff...its fun.

[@ConenRuam]

Love your video's guys!! It's just nice to have a different perspective, a light hearted approach with humour :) Keep them coming

[@bsmith8166]

He forgot to talk about probability. That feature alone makes this volca 100x the drum machine that the DBI is. I have both, but I only ever use the volca drum because of the ability to make stochastic beats.

[@moonsugar1]

Love you guys you're always so into what you're reviewing it's infectious! Think the Drum is a bit abstract for my needs atm but the Modular looks cool.

[@jonathangillis4926]

Dumb question: can you speed up or slow down the tempo of your completed rhythm track? For example: around 10:56 - can you speed or slow down that beat sequence?

[@brianbrill]

Yes, there is a tempo knob you can twist, or it will obey the speed of clock fed to the sync in.

[@jonathangillis4926]

@@brianbrill thanks. Just another thing that came to mind. Can you do other time signatures such as 3/4, or 6/8?

[@brianbrill]

Hmm, I guess how you deal with that is use the Active Step function to select a certain number of steps in the sequence other than 16 and divide your steps in accordingly. A bit awkward, but you can do odd meters that way.

[@HotStrange]

Yes it’s cleat visible on the front panel

[@mynewcolour]

The demo shows clock divisions (‘slices’).

[@Brumairevideo]

Super demo!!!

@@lovesteersthestars Yeah! This volca is great...But now I need to prioritize a Minilogue XD.

[@stroboplusnebel8964]

OH man.. Ich would watch jack review a vacuumcleaner :D

[@dinogoldie9716]

The title for this video refers to the Volca Drum as "modular."is it? I can't find any patchpoints on mine... But seriously, is Korg working on a firmware update to allow transfer/backup of KV Drum kits?

[@multiKslice]

What's the device in the top left?

[@gr4hamm]

not a device, its a card that comes with the modular with various patches on it

[@joemcm1]

sounds toss,fun vid

[@minisoda1914]

Seems like an electribe

[@MyVidMix]

I’m writing this hurtful comment, just so you’ll have something to read at bedtime. 👨‍💻🛌 💤

[@DietSodium]

It has no low end at all, which is really sad - everything else is great.

[@KptnHaddock_]

It actually does! Got mine yesterday and this thing has some serious oomph

[@konradhausmann6359]

@@KptnHaddock_ seconding this, it's all about your sound design. This can definitely compete with a volca beats in the bass department.

[@vprice509]

You can't hear the low end in video, but it has plenty low end. Just got one a couple weeks ago. Nice and boomy, as well as twitchy and robot/spaceship sounds.

[@minusmartin]

first? nice. :-)

[@HotStrange]

Really? People still comment this?

[@ledzeppelinsucks]

Only Martin Lubo's allowed. It's the law.

[@edunabie]

sounds like robot farts :(

[@jimlampshady]

Had to stop watching that half way thru because the guy from Korg clearly didn't know how to work operate the device, telling us you could edit the layers of a sound individually, but then failing to demonstrate it. Bit lame, that.

[@S4V0LAEN3N]

I got the feeling that it was because ongoing conversation and excitement, he got little interrupted. Imagine editing this while cameras are running and you are talking with interviewer at the same time.

[@jimlampshady]

@@S4V0LAEN3N That's his job.

[@NickQuinn1986]

but he did

[@mc2engineeringprof]

Wasn't sold before I bought it. Did anyway. Wasn't sold then. Watched this video. Still not sold. Damn you Korg, I own all of the Volcas. They'll never be sold, even even they suck like this one. What's next? Another BASS Volca? Haha! Just kidding! ;(

[@HotStrange]

This is the best Volca yet.

[@mc2engineeringprof]

@@HotStrange ...... for me to POOP ON!

[@Phoenix_2A]

@@mc2engineeringprof I dont think synths are for you. Maybe a trash can. Or a triangle... Try playing one of those. Youre clearly not intelligent enough to grasp the concept of synthesis.

[@mc2engineeringprof]

@@Phoenix_2A You probably can't possibly imagine how hilarious you sound.

[@Kougeru]

OLED screen = burn in = no buy

[@HotStrange]

Weird how people have OLED screens that never burn in or if they do, it’s not noticeable. The screen on this Volca is fantastic. I’m assuming you don’t buy new phones either then right? Get real dude.

[@disarmsox]

Of all the things to worry about.

[@ildafons]

Hahahahaha

[@HEC9]

This guy knows about this great volca...But doesn´t know to create impressive beats... ...ta ta tada da!!! Terrible demonstration....
