same , here , cant sync it with any of my volcas , so overdub record is always off beat , olso my groovebox ,example on 120 bpm it is 120.035 bpm , wich the volca midi in can sync and then 5v sync out to other volca. so the 120bpm on kaossilator 2 goes offset in a couple of beats .



would be nice if it can sync with the mic in. the kaossilator 2 . how in the hel they did not think abaut timing sync on that device , jees .

No sync through Mic in on the KO2.
There is an app in iOS that generates Volca sync signals at numeric bpm.This may tighten things a bit.Its free and I think it's called SyncKontrol. It's by Korg.

But generally I either sample KO loops with something that is synced or just play KO live ontop of other gear ,at approx tempo.
I got good results with a Monotribe being fed by ko into MTs external In. The gate on the MTs sequencer cuts the KO on beat and any drift ends up sounding musical and good.
Monotribes sync with Volcas.
