Avis sur le produitKorg Volca Beats Analog Rhythm Machine

portable and practical drum machine

This is a very easy-to-use drum machine, with a lot of features while being inexpensive.
It can sync to or from other Korg Volca machines, as well as other machines that produce or accept a CV pulse sync (such as Teenage Engineering Pocket Operators). It accepts a midi input, which could be neat if you want to control it with drum pads or other midi controller.
The sequencer and editing are very easy to understand. With some odd sounds such as an agogo and a lofi 'crash', and parameter settings that are extremely wide, this is also great for making more experimental-sounding beats. Lire l'avis complet...

Korg Volca Beats - it rocks!

I had heard good things about this unit from several different sources and when I found my example on eBay, I jumped on it right away. While it doesn't use acoustic drum samples, you don't miss those tones, this thing is basically an old 808 in a smaller box. It gets all those amazing sounds, has a bunch of tweak-able features, includes 8 user programmable slots and can be sync'ed with other machines or just send a click. Also has a built-in delay for some dub style breaks, which is the cherry on top of this total fun machine. Love it, 5 Stars! Lire l'avis complet...

Korg Vloca beats drum machine

The Korg Volca is one of the better drum machines. It's small and runs on batteries as well as a 9v plug. It even has speakers on it to use without an amp. When plugged into an amp, it really delivers quality sound. All in all, it's a good buy.Lire l'avis complet...

A neat little drum machine for electro beats

I could play with this thing for hours. For electro beats at least, it's a pretty versatile little drum sequencer. The controls are intuitive and easy to get the hang of (more so, in my opinion, than some of the other entries in the volca series) and it's just tons of fun to use. Lire l'avis complet...

Cheap fun

This is my first drum box, but so far it's easy to use and the price was unbeatable. I will probably end up with all of the Volca boxes eventually.

Good Drum Machine

It was a lot smaller than what I thought, but that's a good thing. It's battery powered too, so you can take it places and create rhythms on the go. I wish the snare was a little deeper however. If this was improved it would be perfect. The kick drum is especially good. Great value and it captures a lot of modern drum sounds. Would be fun to create beats and transfer to a program like Ableton Live where additional drums can be added.Lire l'avis complet...

Volta Beats

This is a great beginner drum machine. Although the snare is weak. It helps to double up with a clap to get a nicer sound. I may look into the mod kit. Overall good bang for the buck!

Fantastic Analog/PCM Hybrid Drum Machine

The Korg Volca Beats is a joy to use. The analog tones - kick, snare, toms, and hats - really are the heart of this little machine. They sound so fantastic and their control is minimal but covers a wide range of tonal shaping possibilities. The hats are the standout. The grain knob really has a unique element of sonic control. I bought the Volca Beats, again after having one many years ago, specifically for the sound of the hats. Programming with MIDI notes is the way to go here. You could definitely do a cool one-bar performance on this beast especially getting crazy with the Stutter function but, for my purposes, writing techno-electronic tracks, MIDI note triggering from a DAW is ideal. For fine control, I recommend sequencing your MIDI notes and then recording samples of each instrument for use with sampler instances in your DAW. This way you can adjust the phase of each sample to really gel everything as opposed to having a random analog phase to each tone. Also recording samples allows you to process each sound individually and that is really what a polished & professional sound is all about. The PCM sounds can be cool and sound wonderfully degraded at low pitch settings but honestly you can ignore them and stick to the analog section without losing ANY value to the machine. Korg has delivered almost certainly the best budget friendly analog (and PCM) drum machine with the Volca Beats.Lire l'avis complet...
