I know this thread is about the Volca FM in particular, but I'd like to know, are all the Volcas really this noisy. I recently got a Volca Sample and the background noise floor (independent of master volume) with headphones and built in speaker is quite bad, to the point that I don't think I can ...

Yes, that's interesting that the new Volca FM has the same sort of issue. Although they are experiencing noise out the line out as well.

I'm interested in getting these underlying switch mechanisms switched to some softer touch switches. Does anyone here have any idea as to how difficult this would be a ...
