Korg Volca Kick

31 Oct, 2018

Nice Idea, but unworkable in a professional environment

The Volca kick is such a lovely idea, very tactile and it has a nice tone, but unfortunately it has a very high noise floor, clearly audible in a recording and numerous tracking issues. It is almost never in tune and misses transients when sequenced. This may have been a problem with my unit itself, but having researched the product when considering whether to exchange or return it seems other users have experienced similar issues. You can sample a kick when the transients are there, tune it with tools in your daw and gate or filter the noise floor, but to me that defeats the object of its main attribute, being speed of workflow. If you want something analogue and tactile and are prepared to do the production work to clean it up afterwards (as you would an original 808/909, then you might love it. If you want it to play a solid 4/4 for your techno track straight of the box it will annoy you. Having said all this, some of the Volcas (particularly the keys and the FM) are definately useable in the professional world and Korg deserve a lot of credit for attempting to provid real analogue equipment at a price point for those who are not yet able to afford a moog or a Tr8. Food for thought.
