Review: Great sounding dx7 for a fraction of the price - Great value FM synth which is basically a dx7 in small box. They have improved polyphony from the previous one and sounds just like an FM should. The volca comes with 64 presets however no init or blank patches. You will need to overwrite the factory presets. You can restore these with factory reset. I have been able to transfer the presets to wav then sysex files and saved them on my pc. It was a faff. Transfering the other way was much easier, i have been able to transfer some dx7 patches from dexed to volca very easily. A bit disappointed the unit doesnt have a rechargeable battery like the airas, takes 6 AAs which dont last too long. Builld quality is fine, light and solid but is made primarily from plastic, I recommend the UDG case. For just over £100 its a bargain.
Review: FINALLY a Data Transfer Solution & More Memory! - The Volca Sample has always been one of the most useful Volcas since it can be used to play literally any sound you download to it. The downloading process however was the entire problem. The original Sample required the user to sync with a phone or computer sending 'pulses' down as audio cable (of all things) and this could take around 20 minutes (for a full set of sample) before you even found out if the transfer was successful....and sometimes it wasn't. What's more the memory was limited to an unbelievable degree and you'd often find yourself only able to fill half of the available slots. Now, the positive: This new Sample 2 finally fixes these two problems. Data transfer is done lightening quick via USB by computer via new software and by phone app. It's a breeze. What's more, the memory allows to store much more being 8mb storage instead of the previous 4mb. Still in this day and age, that's a low, but I think Korg try to limit intentionally so that you are forced to be creative within a limited capacity, though your guess is as good as mine. To boot, there's now 200 samples slots too rather than the previous 100. The best way to describe the Sample for those unfamiliar is; it's a Sample Player (not a sampler) since it doesn't allow you to record (i.e to 'sample'). It's a very good, compact Sample Player. It allows you to sequence 16 steps (upgradable apparently to 64 if you download the Pajen Firmware). You can control which sample to assign to each key, the speed, length, start point, envelope, pan, attack, decay and hi cut as well as the reverb. Solo and mute are also available - handy for live playing. The Sample 2 has a brand new set of factory samples including kick drums, snares and toms and other useful sounds, so you can create something decent (and very original if you tinker) right off the bat. See video. Many people are usually stuck between purchasing the Volca sample 2 or Drum. Each is really chalk and cheese. The sample can be used to play ANY sounds (including drums), but the Volca Drum is an actual analogue synthesizer and it too covers a whole range of sounds besides drums - including very abstract, bizarre sounds. So, if you want specific sounds to play (with manipulation) opt for the Sample 2 or if you want to explore Syths and experiment with actual sound design, opt for the Drum.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you connect this up to a DAW (eg. Reason or Ableton) and control it (and the DAW) with a MIDI keyboard?**
A: In its stock form, there is only a MIDI input and a 3.5mm output jack. You first plug in your MIDI keyboard into your interface or computer via MIDI cable or USB respectively. Then use the MIDI output from your audio interface to connect to the volca, and configure your DAW to output to whichever MIDI channel you want.Connect a 3.5mm cable with an adaptor to one of your audio interface inputs, and if all is configured properly you can turn up the volume and hear your volca being played from your MIDI keyboard.

**Q: Can I sync this with my Roland TR 606 ?**
A: You can synch the midi out of a drum machine to the midi in of the Volca or use the trigger out from the 606 to the synch in of the Volca. I'm using a TR626 with my Volca Bass and it works fine. I just checked and saw there's no midi on the 606 but you can still use the trigger.

**Q: What sorts of ports does it have? USB?**
A: No USB. MIDI in, audio out, and sync in/out.

**Q: does the volca have built in adjustable tempo ? with a display of it?**
A: yes , every volca have its own tempo knob

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything it does sounds like a Volca Drum!
*by K***E on 9 April 2022*

Brilliant fun, fast and intuitive and now so cheap for what it does. It gives similar products (like the Sonic Potions LXR02) a real run for its money. I see no reason to spend more. However just like these similar products it has it's own unique sound and flavour and this may ultimately be it's downfall. There are great sounds ready to be created but in the end they all sound like a Volca Drum. For some reason there is just a limited colour pallet at hand. I found programming via the front panel a pain after about 30 mins and it was much easier via the editor program which really opened it up (there are two available). It made progamming a breeze and you could store all your sounds and kits instantly to computer. I preferred using the editor for the full experience and this finally made me decide not to keep the Volca Drum because I felt that I might as well go for a vst if I'm tied to the computer again. I enjoyed it for the few hours I had it (there were a few bugs but I didn't update the firmware) it was very immediate but unfortunetly so was the boredom that set in. Highly recommended if you want to tweak on the go and create edgier sounds. The sounds really PUNCH! It really is amazing for the price. Just not a keeper for me.
