Korg Volca Keys – Analog Loop Synthesizer

FloatOr as low as R975.00 / month interest-free, using your existing credit card. How it works

The ideal introductory synthesizer

Overview:

The Volca Keys Analog Loop Synthesizer from Korg is a polyphonic lead synthesizer with three self-tuning oscillators capable of three-note synthesis. It features a built-in 16-step loop sequencer with the ability to record phrases as you play them. The Motion Sequencer allows you to record knob edits in real time while the Active Step and Flux functions can provide dynamic changes to your programmed sequences. The unit also has built-in delay for time-based effects.

The unit can be programmed with its 27-key Multi-Touch keypad or with an external MIDI controller or DAW via its 5-pin DIN MIDI input. Multiple units from the Volca line can be clock synced with the 1/8″ Sync In and Out connectors. Playback is provided through the 1/8″ headphone output or through the Volca Keys’ built-in speaker. It can be powered by six AA batteries or with the optional KA-350 AC adapter.

  • Polyphonic Analog Synthesis
  • 3 Note Synthesis
  • Self-Tuning Oscillators
  • Loop Sequencer
  • Built-In Delay

polyphonic analog sound engine and loop sequencer

Volca Keys is a long-awaited synthesizer that adds a new chapter to the long and storied history of Korg’s analog synthesizers. Volca keys is a 27-key analog lead synth that generates unbelievably powerful sound from its compact body. Starting with a filter section that uses the circuitry of the legendary miniKORG700S (1974), it delivers astonishing sound that takes full advantage of Korg’s half-century of know-how in circuit design.
With a simple structure that includes delay effect and a sequencer, it’s also an ideal choice as a first analog synth. It offers the richly expressive sounds that are distinctive of an analog synth, providing the enjoyment of simple yet deep sound-creation.

Three true-analog synthesizers with built-in sequencers to generate the ultimate analog leads, basses, or rhythms

Following in the footsteps of the monotron, monotribe, and MS-20 Mini analog synthesizers, Korg announces the Volca series. Volca is a new lineup of EDM production tools comprised of three distinct models: the Volca Keys lead synthesizer, the volca Bass synthesizer, and the Volca Beats rhythm machine. These powerful and fun-to-use true-analog devices deliver a diverse array of fat sounds that can be obtained only from an analog synthesizer. Each is also equipped with sequencing/recording capabilities for intuitively generating performances. Multiple volcas can be used in tandem via the vintage-style sync in/out, and with your favorite DAW software or MIDI keyboard via MIDI In. Battery operation and built-in speakers mean that you can conveniently play anywhere and anytime. These are the next-generation analog synthesizers, bringing you the ultimate sounds and grooves with ease and depth. Whether used together or by themselves, the volca series is poised to inject true analog power into any performance or studio setup!

Real analog sounds created with reference to classic rhythm machines

The volca beats provides six of the sounds for which the greatness of analog shines most clearly: Kick, Snare, Hi Tom, Lo Tom, Closed Hi Hat, and Open Hi Hat. Paying careful attention to the standard sounds that are indispensable for dance music and that are included on numerous synthesizers and sampling CDs, we’ve designed powerful new sounds that could not be produced by any means other than analog.

Maximum impact from minimal parameters – a unique advantage of analog

The volca beats provides a carefully selected minimal set of parameters that let you quickly create the drum sound you want. For example, simply by using the three knobs Click, Pitch, and Decay, you can create an incredible variety of kick sounds, ranging from rough sounds that dominate the low range to tight sounds that keep a precise beat.
Regardless of the settings, all of these sounds will have great presence and density, and will deliver the convincing power that’s possible only from an analog sound generator.

PCM sound engine covers sounds for which analog is unsuited

The PCM sound engine is used to cover sounds for which an analog synth is unsuited, such as Clap, Claves, Agogo, and Crash. We’ve also paid attention to the PCM engine, and have reproduced the rough lo-fi sound of the ’80s. These sounds are a good match with the analog drums, and you can also create even more distinctive sounds by changing the PCM Speed to dramatically raise or lower the pitch.

The Electribe’s step sequencer

This step sequencer is designed to make editing easy and to let you add or remove parts in an improvisational way. You can use the 16 step keys to intuitively enter notes while visually monitoring the timing of the notes within the measure. You can also play the touch panel keyboard to record in real time.
Up to eight sequence patterns you create can be stored in internal memory.

Stutter function generates repeated triggers that dramatically change the sequence

You can use the Stutter function to dramatically expand your live performance possibilities by adding drum rolls or delay-like effects. It can be used to completely transform the feel of the entire pattern, or as a fill when switching patterns. Movements of the Stutter knob can also be recorded in a sequence.

Active Step function and Step Jump function generate new beats by inserting or removing steps

The Active Step function lets you skip a step during sequence playback; the Step Jump function instantly plays only the step you’re pressing. It can create effects similar to a short loop or unexpectedly irregular rhythms, allowing dynamic performances just as though you were performing the sequence itself.
