I am struggling to understand the tempo and bpm on the volca and need someone to point me in the right direction.
If the Volca is set to 1/1 time then am i correct in saying that the sequencer keys steps are 1 bar with 16 sixteenth notes. |

Yes. And 1/2 will give you two bars of eigth notes and so on. |

OK thank you and on to my next question -
If in 1/1 it's 16 beats per measure why does the metronome sound at every 4 beats and not after 16 beats? |

Ok think I am getting there -
In 1/1 it's 16 semi quavers so in 16 time.
There are 16 notes so 16/16 time which is best written as 4/4 time, which is why the metronome counts every 4 beats. |
