The Korg Volca series is a collection of compact, portable synthesisers and grooveboxes designed for electronic music production and live performance. Known for their affordability, intuitive interfaces, and portability, the Volca series is highly popular among both beginners and experienced musicians. Each Volca model focuses on a specific synthesis or music production approach, such as analogue synthesis, FM synthesis, drum machines, or sample playback. Despite their small size, these devices are powerful and can be used individually or chained together to create larger, interconnected setups.

Popular models include the Volca Keys, which is a polyphonic analogue synth great for chords and leads; the Volca Bass, which excels at producing deep bass lines; and the Volca Beats, an analogue drum machine inspired by vintage rhythm boxes. Other models like the Volca FM offer FM synthesis, while the Volca Sample allows users to import and manipulate their own samples. Each unit is battery-powered and features built-in speakers, making them truly portable for on-the-go music creation. They also come equipped with MIDI and sync options, enabling them to integrate with other gear in a studio or live setup. The Volca series is known for delivering a lot of versatility and value in a small, hands-on package.
