Love this synth Smile

I've been patch loading with Dexed. But some patches play back in the Volca FM really quiet. Some not at all. An online video said to try flicking on the LFO key sync switch in Dexed but that often doesn't work.

Anyone found a solution? particularly for the ones which play back really quiet in the FM?

Have you tried the new firmware, I believe it fixes an issue with the Amp Mod Sense which might have that sort of effect...

unfortunately the update didn't help. some patches are stilll really quiet or silent. also I've noticed that even the ones which do work sound different, some are very close but others quite different when you compare the sound to the VST.

Ok I can see what's happening now. Some patches come through with the wrong algorithm selected. If you cycle through the algorithms on the volca you usually get to a close match to the patch. Best to check the algorithm on the patch in Dexed.

Yeah it's weird though. It doesn't always work and the appropriate algorithm number never usually is the same as the patch in the Dexed version.

Anyone found a better solution to this yet?
For me it looks like i have to switch my volcaFM off and on again after loading whole cartridges or patches from dexed to get the algorithms right.
Not a feature but bug on volcaFM-Software.

I have the same problem with the volume .Thats a nice online loader!!! Saying that the volume isn't any better than using Dexed . Has anyone else come up with a solution? Or are the quiet ones just quiet because of their makeup?
