Hi, i am a new user.


I have a question about Volca Keys. I have recorded various sequences, (eg: under M1, M2 and M3). On the manual i have read that i can load them pressing the MEMORY button and then pressing a keyboard button between M1 and M8.

There is a way to select sequences (eg between M1 and M3) and play them sequentially, without press every time the MEMORY button and keyboard buttons to change the phrase? While i play live music, since i play another keyboard, would be nice, eg, set Volca Keys to continuously play sequences from M1 to M3, automatically.

Thank you.

Unfortunately, you cannot do that with any of the Volcas.

Ok, thank you anyway for the reply.

And if i connect a midi controller to the MIDI in of the Volca? Can i send some midi signal to switch between patterns?

not that I´m aware of, I think there is simply no other way to change patterns than pressing FUNC+M1-8

but if you´re already feeding MIDI into the unit, you might want to consider sending the patterns via MIDI in the first place (hardware MIDI player such as Alesis MMT8, or hook up a PC or any other device that can store and send MIDI notes)

In fact i was thinking to mod the Volca Keys:

This mod also works with Keys and Bass.
A question: why the Volca series is provided with these connections on the PCB but there is no MIDI OUT by default?
