Great little digital FM synthesizer
spAcelex 26.08.2024
The Korg Volca FM2 is a compact, portable synthesizer that brings the iconic sound of classic FM (Frequency Modulation) synthesis into a modern, user-friendly package. An updated version of the original Volca FM, the Volca FM2 features a 6-voice polyphony, allowing for richer and more complex sounds. It’s fully compatible with the sounds and patches of the legendary Yamaha DX7, making it a powerful tool for recreating and tweaking vintage FM sounds.

The Volca FM2 includes a built-in 16-step sequencer with motion sequencing, allowing you to automate parameter changes and create evolving patterns. The addition of a new reverb effect enhances the sonic possibilities, adding depth and ambiance to your sounds. The unit also features a randomization function for both the sequencer and the sound engine, offering instant inspiration and creative exploration.

Connectivity options include MIDI In, Sync In/Out, and a 3.5mm headphone output, making it easy to integrate the Volca FM2 into any setup, whether you're in the studio or performing live. It’s battery-powered and has a built-in speaker, making it highly portable and ideal for making music on the go. With its intuitive controls and powerful sound engine, the Korg Volca FM2 is a versatile synthesizer that appeals to both beginners and seasoned musicians looking to explore FM synthesis.

This yoke is bangin'
BroozThePurple 06.07.2023
With 60-ish programs and 32 algorithms for each one, this yoke has given me no end of joy.
Only criticisms are the lack of tempo display, and I could do with a step mode but sure look it. Overall, into it big time, my little Volca F*** Machine

FM 2 rocks
robob 20.06.2022
Ich habe auch den Volca FM der 1. Generation. Der Neue hat es in meine Sammlung geschafft da er 6 statt 3-fach polyphon ist. Toll ist auch, dass der neue ein Reverb hat. Klingt echt super das Teil.

Menü-Diving lässt sich nicht vermeiden bei den Features, aber hier empfehle ich den Online-Editor Kritikpunkt: Warum ein Klinken-Midi? Hat sonst kein Volca und das Kabel muss extra dazu gekauft werden, wenn man Midi nutzen will.

Volca FM2
Louis Rose Sax 23.09.2023
Un super volca honnêtement, le 6 voix de polyphonie fait une grosse différence avec l'ancien model, le seul hic, et encore, c'est le midi / mini jack. Suffit de trouver le bon câble et le tour est joué !
