    Fabulous trick (if you are unable to record it directly maybe at a slower tempo). I appreciate the demonstration of the technique. Thanks. Lee

    My biggest frustration with the keys is the lack of a good step input mode. This is a good workaround, but slow.

      @@francescocascella4666 Saw a video where, using flux mode and expanding the tempo range, you could record up to 128 steps (if your tempo is on 1/4). To unlock this, you got to power up the synth while also pressing the func button, then press the fifth key (Tri), then press the record button to save the changes. The video is called "Korg Volca Keys 128-Note Sequencing Tutorial, Tips & Tricks".

      @MalditoNoisi 4 года назад

      Well, Volca Bass basically can be a Roland TB 303, is a bass sequencer but with the octaves you can make a lot of more sounds, not a bass necessarily. They are just different, but similar in a lot of things.

    • @mickypoo4622

      The keys is far more versatile than the bass with a proper ribbon keyboard layout and has 3 note polyphony.

      You must have a midi interface, connected with the volca midi in, and then you have to create a midi track and then assign volca to the track.

  • @squallstar
    @squallstar 7 лет назад

    Wouldn't it be much simpler and way faster to simply slow down the tempo to 56BPM (you can unlock this via the global menu), add the metronome and live play? It's such a simple sequence that you can get it right on your first try.

    • @LucaDoldi
      @LucaDoldi  7 лет назад

      Sure! But this tutorial was made to show the active step mode. You can also live play, but in this way you have the certainty the notes are perfectly timed.

    • @squallstar
      @squallstar 7 лет назад +2

      Yeah, for the sake of showing this input method I do understand the purpose of the tutorial, but in actual use unless you activate Flux Mode notes are always bound to the 1/1 of each step hence playing live with a very low tempo wouldn't be a timing issue.

    • @LucaDoldi
      @LucaDoldi  7 лет назад +1

      Yes I use both methods depending on what I want to get.
      For example in this sequence ruclips.net/video/A8ioz4poCgY/видео.html i used active step mode to change melody steps in different ways without compromising the entire sequence, until I found what I wanted.
