Analog Kick Sounds Generated by the MS-20 Filter:
The volca kick generates powerful kick sounds using a completely analog circuit. To create these sounds, it does not use a typical sine wave, but the filter sound of the original MS-20. The powerful Rev.1 filter of the MS-20 automatically oscillates when the resonance is pushed to the maximum. It is this effect that is used to produce powerful kick sounds with complex harmonics. The basic parameters are accessible, allowing you to freely design a wide range of kick sounds to your taste.

Powerful bass attacks that stick to the beat:
The volca kick is not just a kick machine. You can use the 16 touch-sensitive keys on the front panel to play dynamic bass attacks and benefit from the advantage of analog circuitry to generate sub-bass essential for all styles of dance music. While your volca kick covers a wide range of notes from low to mid, your sequences can include a variety of sounds including bass toms, high toms and sound effects.

The 16-step sequencer allows automation of all parameters:
The volca kick has, like its brothers in the series, a 16-step sequencer that gives you a lot of freedom for improvisation. But it also comes with several new functions to boost your performances. The volca kick's Motion Sequence function records your knob movements, allowing you to add time-varying changes. This is a great way to develop your loops and generate very original live performances. The Active Step function, meanwhile, generates new rhythms and bass lines by deleting or inserting measures.

Enjoy it anywhere, in any situation:
With its compact size, battery power and built-in speaker, it is easy to carry the volca kick anywhere and use it at any time. The volca kick provides a sync connector that can be easily connected to most other KORG synths and groove machines. Connect to other units such as the volcas, Minilogue, electribes or SQ-1, and experience a session with a synchronized sequencer. The MIDI IN jack allows you to use the volca kick as a sound module for DAW or MIDI controller.
