Description

Explore the Korg Volca Sample 2 drum machine sequencer from Korg. Below you will find product details, specifications and images to help you decide whether it is right for your setup.

The KORG Volca Sample 2 is the latest iteration of the popular Volca Sample. It is the same compact, portable and versatile sample-based drum machine you know and love – now with a host of new improvements across the board. These include enhanced connectivity (namely a micro USB port), increased sample memory, an extended sound library, and functional tweaks to make your workflow even more streamlined and intuitive! 

 

Produce On-the-Move 

Thanks to the wide-ranging suite of integrated features housed in such small dimensions, the Volca Sample contains everything you need to craft grooves and music on-the-move. At its heart, the Volca Sample is a hands-on, advanced sample machine. This is augmented by digital reverb, 8 voice polyphony, a double filter, an in-built speaker and a series of controls used for tweaking and altering your samples. 

Better Connectivity 

Thanks to the inclusion of USB, MIDI and SYNC IN-OUT connections, you can now effectively integrate the unit into your home studio configuration or your live setup. As well as this, you can connect it to any other Volca – broadening your creative options no-end! 

The USB can be used to hook up your Volca Sample to a laptop or computer – making the management of your sample library a complete breeze. This function is also useful for sync, control and playing purposes, as it allows you to play it via your preferred DAW. The handy compatible AudioPocket app for iOS is smart too; simply capture samples wherever and whenever, and transfer them over immediately to the Volca Sample for later use.   

New Beat Making Tools 

A couple of fresh features exclusive to this iteration have been included to take your beat creation to new heights. Use the Pattern chain mode (with a couple of contrasting STEP JUMP modes) or harness the Start Delay setting to delay the first part of any sound. This opens up whole new avenues – allowing for rhythms with an entirely different swing and feel. 

More, More, More!

With 200 memory slots available to you, you've now got twice the amount that were present on the previous version of the Volca Sample. Of these, 50 remain empty, which are left free so you can load in custom samples, or other preset libraries. The pattern locations boast a further reinforcement as well, going from 10 to 16 in size.  

A completely new (and meticulously curated) sound library has been developed for the unit too. This contains 150 samples that cover just about every relevant genre you can think of. From lo-fi hip-hop, to trap and future bass, you'll have all of the sonic tools required for any kind of production.  

Sample Pack Collaboration 

KORG decided to collaborate with two talented artists on the creation of two additional sample packs for the Volca Sample 2: TORIENA and Moe Shop. Both are highly regarded in the Chiptune and Kawaii Future Bass genres respectively. This music involves extensive sample use, making them both perfectly placed for this project. Each artists sample pack can be downloaded free of charge from KORG's website.   

Free Music Software Bundle Included

As well as the Volca Sample 2 itself, you'll also receive a selection of music software from industry heavyweights, iZotope. From the 'Reason Lite' DAW and 'Skoove' (which is designed to take your keyboard skills up a notch), to 'Ozone Elements' – a powerful song creation tool which helps you to create tracks (which can be enhanced using AI) – this bundle of software is extremely varied. On top of that you'll get a suite of software synths from KORG and a bunch of other respected brands.

Sequencers

Sequencers are tools used to record, arrange and play back musical notes, patterns and rhythms in a structured way. Commonly found in synths, drum machines and standalone units, they allow you to build evolving sequences, loop ideas and create complete compositions step by step.

Drum Machine

A drum machine is an electronic instrument designed to create and sequence rhythmic patterns and percussion sounds. It is used to program beats, build grooves, and perform rhythms with precise timing and hands-on control. For example, a drum machine might be used to create a repeating rhythm for a live set or to sketch the foundation of a track before adding melodic and harmonic elements.

New

New Gear is unused and in original condition, supplied as it leaves the manufacturer. It is chosen for guaranteed reliability, full functionality, and the assurance of manufacturer support. For example, buying new ensures access to the latest design revisions, included accessories, and official warranty coverage.

Sequencer

A sequencer is a tool used to record, arrange, and play back musical events in a defined order. It allows notes, rhythms, and parameter changes to be programmed step by step or recorded in real time, creating structured patterns and loops. Sequencers are used to keep multiple instruments in sync, build evolving arrangements, and automate movement within a sound. For example, a sequencer might be used to create a repeating bass pattern while gradually changing filter or modulation values to add variation over time.

Synth

A synth is an electronic instrument that creates sound through electronic signal generation and shaping. It is used to produce basses, leads, pads, textures, and effects by controlling oscillators, filters, envelopes, and modulation. Synths are central to electronic music and modern production, offering flexible sound design for both studio work and live performance.
