Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Korg volca drum digital percussion synthesizer.
The volca drum is a rhythm sequencer built around a digital synthesis engine
focused on percussive sounds. Six drum parts can be tweaked at will to create
original drum kits. From pure tone impulses to gritty distorted crunches, a
wide array of sounds can be created, and further enhanced with a waveguide-
based resonator effect to create other-worldly rhythms.

Sound Controls

These knobs and buttons control the sound of the currently selected drum part
and waveguide resonator effect. As illustrated below, each part has two
identical layers and the
waveguide resonator is shared for all parts.

LAYER 1/2 button
Toggle the selected layer. The button will light up when both layers are
selected at once.
LEVEL [VALUE] knob
Set the gain level of the selected layer. When EDIT/STEP is lit, this knob
sets the value of the part parameter selected via the SELECT [PARAM] knob.
PITCH knob
Set the pitch for the selected layer.
MOD AMOUNT knob
Set the amount of pitch modulation for the selected layer.
MOD RATE knob
Set the pitch modulation rate for the selected layer.
EG ATTACK knob
Set the attack time of the amplitude envelope generator for the selected
layer.
EG RELEASE knob
Set the release time of the amplitude envelope generator for the selected
layer.
SELECT [PARAM] knob
Cycle through permutations of sound sources, pitch modulators, and
amplitude envelopes for the selected layer. Sound sources (SRC): sine wave ,
sawtooth wave , high pass filtered noise , low pass filtered noise and band
pass filtered noise . Pitch modulators (MOD): rise-fall , oscillate , and
random . Amplitude envelope generators (EG): linear attack-release ,
exponential attack-release , multi-peak attack-release . When EDIT/STEP is
lit, this encoder functions as the PARAM knob, cycling through the following
additional part parameters:
BIT: bit reduction amount
FLD: wave folder amount
DRV: overdrive gain
PAN: left-right pan
GAN: pre-mix gain adjustment
WAVEGUIDE
SEND knob
Set the waveguide resonator send amount for the selected part.
DECAY knob
Set the decay time of the waveguide resonator.
BODY knob
Set the timbral character of the waveguide resonator.
TUNE knob
Set the pitch tuning of the waveguide resonator. For low values, the tuning
goes below audible frequencies and effectively turns the waveguide resonator
into a delay-like effect.

2. Step buttons 1 to 16 correspond to the MIDI channels 1 to 16. Press the button that corresponds to the desired channel, and the LED below the step button will light up.

TIP: Tapping the step for the selected channel (LED lit up) cancels the
selection and reverts to part 1–6 assigned to channels 1–6. (factory default)
SYNC (IN, OUT) jacks
These jacks allow you to synchronize your volca drum to another Korg volca, or
other compatible equipment—including an analog sequencer or a DAW. The
polarity of the SYNC jacks can be set using the global parameters.

• SYNC OUT: A 5 V pulse of 15 ms is sent at the beginning of each step.
• SYNC IN: If this jack is connected, the internal step-clock will be ignored, and the volca drum sequencer will advance according to the pulses received here.

(Headphone) jack
Connecting your headphones to this 3.5mm stereo mini jack will mute the volca
drum’s internal speaker and allow you to create music in private.
VOLUME knob
Set the output level of the volca drum.

replace the battery cover.
Turn the volca drum off before replacing the batteries.
Remove depleted batteries at once. Depleted batteries left in the battery
compartment may leak over time, and may cause malfunctions. Also, remove the
batteries if you will not be using the volca drum for an extended period of
time.
Do not mix partially used batteries with new ones, and do not mix batteries of
differing types.

Battery level indicator

When the volca drum is turned on, the LEDs below the step buttons indicate the
remaining amount of battery power. If all LEDs are lit up, the batteries are
completely full. Fewer lit LEDs mean that the battery level is correspondingly
lower.
When using the AC adapter, the remaining battery level will not be indicated
correctly.
TIP: Either alkaline or nickel-metal hydride batteries can be used.
In order for the remaining battery level to be detected and indicated
correctly, the type of batteries being used must be specified in the global
parameters of the volca drum.
TIP: If the batteries are running low during usage of the volca drum, the
low battery warning “bt.Lo” will appear in the display. If the batteries run
down completely, the volca drum automatically turns off.
