What you made makes me feel so good inside my head. It's so warm and peaceful and so alive. Who said Volcas we're toys?

That jam at the end though

At 6:00 I get instant Eric Prydz vibes!

Love it! The trick and the result.

Excellent video, very helpful. Thanks!

Solid tutorial! This was one of those features I’ve always had a hard time wrapping my head around and this vid got me squared right up.

Exactly what I was looking for. thx!

Thanks so much. The Korg Volca Bass is my favorite of all the Volcas, next to the keys and Sample. Awesome instructional video bro.💻🎹🤟

Wow I picked up a Volca Bass a few days ago and in my first try video I literally used the 3 voices seperately as I thought that was the way to go. Weird that you had to show this in this video and lots did not use it already. But thanks anyways because now I found your channel and subscribed for more!

Soo cool sound. Great. I love the bass and the fm2 plus sample as drumsampleplayer.

What tha hell, thats crazy!!!! Thanks I learn something new today.

Stunning.

This is how a candy store looks like ❤

this is the coolest use of 3 vcos on v bass I've ever seen... taking mine out of closet this weekendddd!!!! :)

Excellent! I got a volca Keys and and two volca Fm's (the first model and the new one). The Volca Bass sounds like a good thing to pair With a Volca Keys. I use an Emu X-board 49 with a midi thru box to control them.

Superb set up

Its sound awesome ! 😮

Very nice and helpful.

Hey you just encouraged me to get a Volca Bass :P Very cool video!

Thank You!

Sick, I hope you have more of these types of vids

That was nice 👍🏻

Very good.

Good morning :-) I like the sounds, very inspiring

Bravo 👏🏽

All this video does is make me want to buy more synths! 👌 the volcas are cool as. Fm, bass and sample with a few effects pedals, good to go!

Dang … great Jam

nice stuff

I had a similar Volca setup butI ended up selling most of the Volcas to upgrade to other synths. But I kept the Volca Bass which is my favourite for its filter.

Nice

Mixing the waveforms is so much fun, too. I wish it would pattern sequence though.

Thank u! 👍🏿😎👍🏿

Cool!!

Thanks for the tutorial! I need to figure out midi!

Amazing video! Super quick (and probably very silly) question: yet will the rhythmic articulation of VCOs 1, 2 and 3 always be tied to each another, or could you have sustained notes on say, VCO3, and dyad stabs on VCOs 1 and 2? I have tried to do this, yet my sustained notes always take on the rhythm that I input in the other VCOs ! (sorry if this isn't clear)

far north posse lovin this :P

I love my volca bass, and I haven't even discovered its total capabilities. Try controlling via midi through a DAW and a soft arpeggiator. Prettttteee...pretteee...pretty good. (Don't steal my ideas!)

Yo that was actually sick. Been tossing up whether to get a second hand Behringer 303 clone or Volca Bass (I've already got the Keys) and this is kinda swaying my opinion

Outstanding channel, you are a wizard with the Volca's. Pure magic! May I ask how you use you effects pedals, in line with a specific Volca or via a mixer send / return? Keep those excellent performances and tutorials coming! ♥️👏👏👏😎👍🎹🎵🎶

Sure! All the volcas go into a Mackie mixer, and I use the send on that for the Strymon Reverb. And then I can patch in a Strymon delay as in insert (mono only sadly) onto the first two channels on the mixer. Does the job!

I am shopping for something like this. I love the sounds of the 80's so I was looking at the korg volca FM (DX7) or the bass like you are playing. Can you play for instance "I Ran" or a jam like "take on me," "maneater," "Jump"?

lovely progressive house example btw

Nice!...quite Camel Phatty!

I have a big headache: how do you connect 10 volcas to 2 volca mixers? and what about external effects?

What power supplies are you using for your Volcas? I like the 90 degree bend.

Great video, thank you. May I ask could you explain the mixers you use and which ones you might recommend perhaps in a forthcoming video. Best wishes

@@edwardferry8247 I would definitely recommend Mackie, their mixers have very clean sound through, very good preamps. They don't color the sound much, if at all, but that's good anyway, 'cause you can do it later in the DAW. And with Gain close to the max with channel level low, you can have a very nice overdrive/distortion effect

A bit too much, but it's worth it. 8 inputs, 2 individual sends, alternative routing, solo/mutes (very convenient tool), a lot of possibilities for self patching - this mixer is an adventure on its own!

I'm new to sync music production and completely new to Korg Volca, so excuse my basic question, but how do you 'save'/'remember' all those sounds you create? Is there a way to crate projects as in working with Ableton? Where you save your midi tracks and presets? How does that work with Volca? Or is it only used for live sessions and do you just have to remember it by heart/head?

Any of your volcas modded?

"Sounds average" he says. Lol, no, sounds great!

Can each other oscs be triggered from different midi channels ?

is there a way to do this using an external sequencer eg circuit tracks? i imagine not so i will be limited to the 8 spots on the volca 🫠 life is hard🤣 thank for the inspiration 😎

You just need a midi keyboard bro and if its the keystep pro then better for you , cause of the arp function byt again if you just have a midi keyboard you can create your own arp without the need of keysteps function.

What case/stand are you using for the volcas?

Not to be that guy, but its paraphony since all vcos use the same filter. I dont get why Korg doesnt mention the fact it can do chords in advertisments and product listings though.

so if i sequence it through my digitakt or a midi controller or even a daw to get more steps, i will only be able to play monophonic ? ill have to always use the volca sequencer?
