I really can't understand why you don't have millions of followers because you're the very best explaining how this machines work. Seriously, thank you so, so much for your work and make our lives easier!
I wish I could give more than one thumbs up, because I keep coming back to this video when I encounter some problem that I can't find an explanation for in the manual, and usually I will find my answer here. Great video, thank you!
This is so good. So good! The fact that you restart from scratch every time makes it so much easier to understand the explanations when jumping around to different points in the video.
This thing is absolutely absurdly good! That bass sound with wave folding sounds mean; but the depth of control is nuts for the form and elegance of control puts many large, expensive machines to shame. Thanks for showing everything this has to offer.
I have instruments that cost 10 to 20 times what this Korg does that do about 500 times what this does... but because of your video being genuinely the most straight forward and feature rich explanation I want to buy this. Just to play. Damn you! lol. You honestly need to show these comments to instrument manufacturers and have them pay you for you to make instructional videos for their websites. They'd sell 5 times the instruments. Start with the Elektron Octatrak - that thing is about as clear as mud. :D Thank you for another great video.
do it this thing is an absolute blast for live jamming. I won't ever sell mine unless someone offers me more than what I need to replace it with another brand new one. one thing i can tell you about the Drum is that unlike most other Volcas it isn't trying to sound like or be anything else. it is the Drum and there really isn't anything else quite like it. bro doesn't even really get into how wild a live performance can get when you really nail the combination of step jump + probability and the wave resonator. you can get some absolutely absurd sounds out of it while using the resonator at the same time as messing with pitch/release/attack/mod etc..
I had the drums a couple yrs ago and sold it cause it drove me nuts.Two yrs later I convinced myself that percussive synthesis can be fun and awesome especially for music production,so yeah buying one again,I get it now.🤖📼
Great and valuable info, especially having a user manual provided from the manufacturer that it is pretty short... Somehow this reminds me when Roland or Alexis were releasing those amazing video manuals, just the perfect complement to the written one ;)
Thank you, the best video out there ! CLEAR AND SIMPLE, your the best !! hope you get more subcribers because you deserve every one of them. Keep up the good work and keep on jamming !!!!
Thanks for the tutorial. I just received mine yesterday. It's the little sister of the LXR02. It's fun, and sounds good but you get what you pay; Limited amount of memory for more patterns and kits... And compared, the lxr sounds massive.
you can read the manual, you can watch youtube tutorials, you can experiment by yourself... just watch this video: quadrillion times faster and user friendly then all aboves! thanks mate \m/
After relearning, its crazy how much can you parameter lock almost everything... Even the resonator send. Per step. This fact blew my mind and convinced me to sell my db impact and maybe get a tr6s for sequencing the volca drum too.
helpful video, but misleading to say the resonator "affects to whole kit", as you repeat several times. It can affect the whole kit if you send each part to it, but it only affects the parts you choose to send to it. the send knob is per-part.
Great review, great channel. Thank you. One question. I checked midi implementation of volca drum and found that it understands program change messages. But cant find how it actually works. Is it changes patterns or kits???
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME ???? If i want to chain programs with my midi cable plugged in it starts randomly repeating. So if i would chain patern 1 and 2 instead of going 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, it will go like 1, 2, 1,1, 1, 2, 2, 2. It is just randomising wich patern it plays. But as soon as i plug the midi cable out the chaining works again. Does someone know the answer?
Hello, I'm getting trouble to sync volca drum to Ableton live with midi in(volca) to usb (as my audio interface doesn't have midi in and out). i tried many different ways but its not working... can you please help thank you in advance
Hi, I'm new to this machine. I just received it and trying it out. I noticed that sometimes when multiple sounds are triggered some sounds within the kit cannot be heard whereas when I delete other sounds in the sequence that where placed at the same step it does get triggered. Almost as if it can't trigger to much at once. Is this just me or can it be changed?
kick is just a sine wave with a pitch envelope. a good hat is trickier, you might want to use the sine modulation very fast to get a kind of sparkly noise, then make the amp envelope short
I really can't understand why you don't have millions of followers because you're the very best explaining how this machines work. Seriously, thank you so, so much for your work and make our lives easier!
In my head, I am reading your comment with the voice of screaming Homer because of your profile pic 😃
@@GOICOBA This is how I want it to be read 😜
So ture!!! I wish we could do more to support him!!!
+1 True Words
Wow I’m only 20 min in and it’s alreadt more informative than everything I’ve read and watched on this machine. Thank you!
4 years after buying a volca drum im super tempted to relearn again with this tutorial.
Coolest volca ever
I wish I could give more than one thumbs up, because I keep coming back to this video when I encounter some problem that I can't find an explanation for in the manual, and usually I will find my answer here. Great video, thank you!
This is the best video I've seen explaining the Volca Drum in a comprehensive yet friendly manner :) nice one!
Glad you liked it!
This is so good. So good! The fact that you restart from scratch every time makes it so much easier to understand the explanations when jumping around to different points in the video.
This is the absolute best Volca Drum tutorial out there. Thanks for helping me to finally understand!👍
Don't stop making these videos!!! you are by FAR the best out there showing and explaining how these things work.... THANK YOU!!
I second the motion that XNB is one of the top explainers of synth on youtube.

god bless you, even i am not english speaker, i learn everything i need to know whit this awesome video.
"if i do play" is such a great and weird sentence. esl can be so poetic
Thank you so much! Japanese engineers seem to think their brief descriptions are enough to work their devices. This was exactly what I was hoping for.
I had the drums a couple yrs ago and sold it cause it drove me nuts.Two yrs later I convinced myself that percussive synthesis can be fun and awesome especially for music production,so yeah buying one again,I get it now.🤖📼
Very nice and helpful tutorial. No waffling and straight to the point. Greetings from Europe 💛
Wonderful explanation, very focused and clear and structured and no second of wasted time, thank you!!!
The best Channel deep dive in CZcams, Greetings from brasil
Great and valuable info, especially having a user manual provided from the manufacturer that it is pretty short... Somehow this reminds me when Roland or Alexis were releasing those amazing video manuals, just the perfect complement to the written one ;)
Thank you very much for this video! I really appreciate it :) Now I have a deeper understanding about the Volca Drum
Thank you so much for making these and sharing them. They must be a lot of work to make, but they have so much good information for others.
Amazinng content as always. Truly the best audio gear guide videos on youtube
This is such an awesome tutorial, you are great at this. And this synth is unapologetically cool.
You're a legend! Very well explained, so much better then other guides, helped me to find out couple things deeper.
Excellent tutorial. Thank you very much!
Thank you, the best video out there ! CLEAR AND SIMPLE, your the best !! hope you get more subcribers because you deserve every one of them. Keep up the good work and keep on jamming !!!!

thank you so much for this video, i found it incredibly helpful!
Awesome work and perfectly explained. It was a lot of fun to follow this walkthrough, thanks a bunch!
Thanks my friend. I will watch this a few times more.
Excellent tutorial!
this is a great tutorial on the Volca Drum, thank you very much!
Thank you, very clear and really helped me understand the theory behind this fascinating machine.
This is getting spooky, you genuinely do guides on equipment I have! Love it!
great tutorial! thanks for all the in depth volca knowledge.
Fantastic comprehensive tutorial. Thank you!
Very clear explanation of all functions.
Fantastic! I wish this was out there much sooner for me to see when I first go the "drum". Thank you so much!
Best tutorial I've seen. Thankyou
Love this tutorial! Greetings from Memphis!
The Drum is next on my list to get so this is great timing for me, cheers buddy!
thank you for the full walk through, just worked through it. Probably coming back bc of the complexity of this box 😅
Thanks so much for your vids! This and the Poly D one have helped tremendously.
amazing tutorial thanks!
Thank you for making this video, very helpful!
excellent tutorial bro
Excellent guide. Thank you!
Thank you so much for that tutorial! Very precise and clear :)
I need a complete guide of Volca Bass 😩🙏
Super informative and helpful. Fantastic!
The best of the best tutorial ever, really great l! I suppose you are a teacher
Yes I don’t have a drum but your sample 2 one ya did so helpful
Awesome tutorial! Thanks.
Thanks!
Thanks :) glad you liked it. Thanks for the help and support.
very clear, and to the point. you are the best!
amazing
Thanks
you can read the manual, you can watch youtube tutorials, you can experiment by yourself... just watch this video: quadrillion times faster and user friendly then all aboves! thanks mate \m/
I'm watching this to use my drums in a couple months from now and I know I am going to forget all this lol
Awesooomeeee 🙏🏼
Great tutorial
Great tutorial👍 Thank you!
After relearning, its crazy how much can you parameter lock almost everything... Even the resonator send. Per step.
This fact blew my mind and convinced me to sell my db impact and maybe get a tr6s for sequencing the volca drum too.
Or you could get the Behringer RD6 for almost a 1/4 of the price 👀
helpful video, but misleading to say the resonator "affects to whole kit", as you repeat several times. It can affect the whole kit if you send each part to it, but it only affects the parts you choose to send to it. the send knob is per-part.
Thanks for pointing this out. I noticed another comment send you can parameter lock each of your sends PER STEP which is insane
best teacher
Youre the best explaining this, you deserve millions of followers.
Work on your marketing. If you need a hand ill be here. Thank you
Excellent
Bravissimo 👏🏻
love this vid, very helpful😃
great video! thank you very much!
Gracias Edu, ojala te haya ayudado :)
Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!
Can you easily map parameters in to a controller to can have one knob per function ?
Its the best Volca besides Volca Kick and FM for shure
Great review, great channel. Thank you.

Hi, I'm new to this machine. I just received it and trying it out.

Almost as if it can't trigger to much at once. Is this just me or can it be changed?
They are in choke group together! Google choke group
Hold function and down on the sequencer look for choke. You can now unchoke your 6 parts.
A new Firmware would bei awesome. For example Parameter change the Position after switching to new Instrumente.. 👍
no midi out kind of kills this product for chaining all the korg minis and other products together to make music. why do this?
Anyone know if Volca drum can create patterns in other rhythms than 16 beats? Maybe 10, 12 or 7.
you can turn off active steps so anything less than 16 is possible but it is per part, so you could make each instrument have different lengths
volca fm2 next please
👍🏾💯🔥
Why do I get the feeling that you are a big Flossy Carter fan?
Who the F is big Flossy Carter ?
The randomize button is here for people like me that dont know the theory behind osc to do our kick and hat etc 😂😂
kick is just a sine wave with a pitch envelope. a good hat is trickier, you might want to use the sine modulation very fast to get a kind of sparkly noise, then make the amp envelope short
👍👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿
Tooo fast. But very informative
Excellent tutorial. Thank you so much!!!
Thanks!
