General
Some of the biggest hits in pop history feature a driving rhythmic beat that originated from a drum machine. Korg's analogue Volca Beats drum machine places a wide selection of rhythms at your fingertips and has a retro-style look. Program the built-in step sequencer and let the party begin!
Kick, Snare, Tom, Hi-Hat
Making a good drum part can be simple with the Korg Volca Beats. It has a user-friendly interface with rotary knobs to adjust the sound of the kick, snare, tom and hi-hat. The full, analogue sound of this tweakable drum machine can be augmented by built-in PCM sounds such as claps and crashes. The integrated stutter effect adds a lot of dynamics and brings your tracks to life.
In Sync
The traditional MIDI input enables you to operate the Volca from an external controller and the headphone output enables you to practice in silence. One of the best things about the Volca Beats is that it can be synced with two other Korg tabletops via the sync input and output. When combined with the Volca Bass and Volca Keys, you'll have a remarkably compact but complete electro setup that will serve all your pop, dance and urban music needs!

Deze variant is echt heel cool, maar eerlijk, is eerlijk, als ik gewacht had, had ik zeker de volca kick gekocht, want van de beats gebruik ik in principe alleen de bassdrum.
Het formaat klopt, de knopjes kloppen, het geluid klopt (zelf de overstuurde ruis die als snare fungeert). 3 van de 4 pcm samples slaan helemaal nergens op, alleen de clap, om de snare te compenseren.
Het bakkie zelf is echt geniaal! Je haalt er heel makkelijk de leukste beats uit die op zich gewoon leuk zijn, of ter ondersteuning van de rest van je Korg Volca-apparaten en andere instrumenten.
Ik heb hem voornamelijk via midi aangestuurd en met een max-4-live plugin kun je vele controls digitaal aansturen.
Hierdoor lijk je eindeloze vrijheid te krijgen en je kan makkelijk de instellingen opslaan en weer oproepen. De volca beats is nu een vaste tool geworden in mijn arsenaal en ik maak er nog steeds dankbaar gebruik van.
