Are more additions to Volca series planned?

Post by mstrnic »

Newest for me is the Volca Sample. As great as the lineup already is, i wonder if even more are added in the future...

I really can't get enough of these units. :)

Maybe a volca mixer? With onboard effects!


Technically, you can say the SQ-1 is the next volca. Same form factor and it works with them as well as other analog gear.

That would be so awesome! Korg needs to find a way to make it easier to connect the audio from all these 1/8" output devices.

I'm actually trying to make a case/box with 2 4-channel mixers and 2 MiniKP1s, so I can connect the Volca quadro and 2 monotribes. I bought two of these cases for the Volcas and Monotribes: http://www.amazon.com/Stagg-UPC-424-Ele ... pedal+case

1 of those cases will fit 4 volcas, or 2 monotribes nicely.

A mini mixer would be very nice indeed.
+ Record to SD card
+ BPM display
+ EQ and FX send

Yes, all four Volcas powered and synced. The cables are tucked underneath by a piece of foam padding. I'm gonna drill a hole for the 4 1/8th cables and the 2 linked up power daisy cables to run out.

very cool! add a midi thru box (~50) to the side and a tiny 4 channel micro mixer (~35) and all you need to plug is power, 1 midi and 1 mono/stereo out and your volcas are ready. :) ive also read claims that a powercord splitter would make it possible to run all volcas off a single brick.

Thanks guys! Yes, I'm running all volcas off one KA-350 power supply. I got 2 cables from kvgear.com and each cable allows for 3 - 9volt Korg devices to be powered by one plug. I had to buy 2 cables to power the 4 volcas. You can daisy chain the actual cables.
