The Korg Volca Kick Analogue Kick Generator is your one-stop solution for punchy kick drum and kick bass sounds that can be finely tuned to your productions.  The volca series has done a great job of reviving classic groove machines.  This time, it's the most important sound in today's dance music: the kick!  The Volca kick contains an analog circuit path which is based on the powerful resonant sound of the original MS-20 filter - letting you create a wide range of kick sounds ranging from solid to crisp kick basses. The 16-step sequencer now also has a new 'Touch FX' feature that lets you control an effect instantly.  Control your kick sounds like never before with the Korg Volca Kick!


    • Korg Volca Kick PRODUCT FEATURES:

      Analog kick sounds generated by MS-20 filter oscillation

      The volca kick generates powerfully present kick sounds using a completely analog circuit. To create those sounds, it uses not a typical sine wave, but the sound of an oscillating filter from the original MS-20. The powerful Rev.1 filter of the MS-20 self-oscillates when resonance is increased to the maximum, and this is used to produce powerful kick sounds with complex overtones.

      Simple and effective parameters are provided, allowing you to freely design a wide range of kick sounds to your taste. Start the sound design process by using MS-20 RESONATOR (PITCH/BEND/TIME) to control the sense of pitch that generates the "body resonance" of the kick sound. Then use PULSE COLOUR/LEVEL to adjust the clip components to control the sense of attack, and AMP ATTACK/DECAY to intuitively control the decay of the sound. From tight kicks to fat, slow-decaying kicks, and pitched kick bass, it's possible to create kick sounds that are appropriate for every type of dance music.
      Aggressively control the sound using DRIVE and TONE

      In addition to the analog kick generator circuit based on the MS-20 filter, there's an analog drive that includes multiple stages of distortion. The distortion level and type can be varied by a single knob, increasing the variety and power of the kick sounds. You can use the tone control to transform the character of the sound by adjusting the high-frequency range.

      Powerful kick bass that rules the beat

      The volca kick is not just a kick drum machine. You can use the 16-key touch-panel keyboard to perform dynamic kick bass, and take advantage of the volca kick's powerful analog circuitry to generate the sub bass sound that's indispensable to dance music styles such as grime or trap.

      Since the volca kick covers a wide pitch range from low- to mid-frequencies, your sequences can include a variety of sounds including low tom, high tom, and sound effects.
