Here’s what Korg say:

The Volca series is all about unique sound. Whether it's analog, PCM, or FM, the Volca series puts unique sounds into an accessible platform. And now, the series is joined by a new rhythm machine that brings yet another sonic character. It's the Volca drum digital percussion synthesizer.

Based on a simple trigger waveform, wave folder and overdrive are used to add overtones and distortion, and then a waveguide resonator effect brings the sound to life. The six-part DSP synth engine was designed with a completely different philosophy than conventional drum machines, and generates a wide range of unexpectedly different sounds. And of course, you can play those sounds from the Volca-style sequencer.

Digital percussion synth with a 6-part x 2-layer structure

The term "digital" typically brings to mind sounds that are based on PCM-sampled bass drum, snare drum, or cymbal, but the Volca drum creates its drum sounds by DSP-powered analog modeling. Oscillator waveforms such as sine wave, sawtooth wave, and noise are provided. By applying various changes to these waveforms, you can create a wide variety of percussion sounds that range from realistic to idiosyncratic, and are not limited only to drums.

The six parts each have two layers, and do not impose any rules or restrictions such as specifying which parts must be used for the bass drum or for the cymbal; all parts have the same specifications. You can freely assign your new sounds to these six parts without being limited by the conventions of a drum set. A kit consists of the six parts that you'

About Korg

We have new and used Korg musical equipment available on our website for fast direct delivery from sellers across the UK & Europe.

Korg has been a leading name in synthesizers since the 1970s, establishing itself with the creation of classic analogue synthesizers like the MS-20 and ARP Odyssey. The MS-20, introduced in 1978, became a beloved instrument for its gritty, aggressive sound and semi-modular architecture, making it a favourite in genres from punk to techno. Korg’s recreation of the ARP Odyssey brought a legendary duophonic synthesizer from the 1970s back to life, preserving its unique sound while adding modern features. These early instruments set the stage for Korg’s reputation as a forward-thinking company with a deep respect for analogue synthesis.

In more recent years, Korg has continued to innovate with the Korg M1, which defined the sound of the late 80s and early 90s with its digital synthesis and built-in sequencer, and the Korg Volca Series, offering compact and affordable analogue and digital instruments that allow musicians to build portable modular setups. The Korg Minilogue and Monologue have also made waves, providing analogue sound with modern features like programmability and built-in effects. Across decades, Korg has balanced accessibility with innovation, creating instruments that cater to professionals and newcomers alike.

Synthesizer

A synthesizer, often abbreviated as synth, is an electronic musical instrument that generates and manipulates sound electronically. Synthesizers create sound through various methods, including subtractive synthesis, additive synthesis, frequency modulation synthesis, and wavetable synthesis, among others. They typically feature oscillators to produce raw waveforms, filters to sculpt the timbre, envelopes to shape the sound’s amplitude, and modulation sources to add movement and complexity.

Synthesizers offer a vast range of sounds, from classic analog tones to futuristic digital textures, and are used in a wide array of musical genres, from electronic and pop to rock and film scoring. With their versatility and expressive capabilities, synthesizers are essential tools for musicians, producers, and sound designers seeking to explore and create innovative sonic landscapes.

Volca

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.
