Any chance of a firmware update for the Volca Bass to enable 16 pattern memory slots?

[@lundsweden]

Thankfully for Korg, the answer is all of them!

The best feature on the volcano base for me is the fact that it has a shift pattern function. I really wish that all the valk has had this function it's so important. This way you can write patterns on the fly without worrying about where's the beginning and end you can just shift the pattern to make it start where you want it to. lots of times I'll be recording stuff you know by ear and I won't realize that where I made my initial drop or where the one count is is somewhere in the middle of the sequence. The show pattern function really resolves having to rewrite your whole loop over.

I like the NU bass better than the normal. The tube doesn't hurt either, even though I don't really hear it or know what its doing. Cheers and more volca modular turorials and patches pretty please! Also how they sync with th Tb 03 and other gear perhaps. Good stuff here.

The fact that the OG Volca bass has 3 VCOs and the Nubass only one is kinda sad. I honestly can't see the Nubass replacing my OG Bass even though I like the new features.

Same to, that's why I bought a second one.

[@leo197777]

I can't find an equivalent with its 3 VCOs, for a second track to work on, I hesitated a lot for the Nubass, or Sample or FM2 or Drum, to accompany it, finally I took a second Bass ( you can do everything and feel very comfortable with the layout of the buttons), the ergonomics of the other Volca put me off a little in comparison.

Thanks for your video! 👍

[@bsmith8166]

What's the best way to hook these up to guitar pedals? Do I need to buy a mixer?

[@Joel-re1jz]

Volca Drum is my favorite

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

I have the Bass and Kick and Monologue and Minilogue xD as my setup. What should I get for a good drum sequence?

[@adamlipski4511]

Korg usa !

[@adamlipski4511]

That tube dose sound sweet...

[@Jason75913]

Electribe Sample or Kross2 Volca Drum if you need something very compact. Roland TR6 if you don't mind something more versatile and different.

[@heathbrady8510]

Beatstep Pro!

[@mrgratis561]

Prefer the nubass. As well as slides, it also has transpose, accents, sequence shift (very handy), step jump and motion sequencing.

[@heathbrady8510]

Okay, I’ll address the elephant in the room.. Can’t we mash the two together into one? Any chance of adding two more oscillators to the nubass in a subsequent hardware release “Nubass 3”? (And making its unsaturated volume a bit louder ?) One can dream

[@lee3144]

the volca bass is warmer

[@skarryprankhunter]

The volca nubass sound more like a 303 in my opinion. But not by much.

[@adamlipski4511]

Not at all as comlex, ecual to and ore there 4t'h
