do you also use stereo cables in the Audio out ports? I know it doesn't make sense but it did solve my sync problems

Make sure you use only STEREO mini jacks. In my experience, most issues are caused by using mono jacks in the Sync and/or Audio out ports.

Another thing: if you've lost your patches, the onboard battery is probably dead or about to expire. You need to replace it or it could start to leak and damage your synth.

Google and download the factory patches in audio tape format, hook up the Poly-800 cassette IN port to the output pf your PC soundcard and follow the ...

Based on the design and the fat analog sounds it produces I suspect this thing dates from the early ...

Use an audio splitter and update them at the same time or let the Volca's take turns.

Just finished building my Völcaräk wooden table-top rack for my beloved Volca's. Made out of some cheap IKEA parts and a strip of pinewood. Note how i created some extra space for the Volca Mixer and Volca FX :) http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb412/Mark_Two/Music%20Gear/volcarak3_zpsyhleljxe.j ...
