    In this video I give a tutorial on the Volca Sample from KORG. This sampler lets you create patterns with 10 parts with a 16 step sequence. The sampler can hold up to 65s worth of samples and be synced with other KORG Volcas.
    This is a full tutorial showing how to upload samples with vosyr software, create patterns, use song mode, midi settings and edit a sample using all of the onboard controls.

    Hot tip for Volca Sample owners.
    To save tonnes of RAM, speed up all your long samples pitch x4 then they take up MUCH less space.
    To play back normally in the Volca just slow the pitch down again !

      A classic trick for those of us used to 90s and 00s samplers. I pitch up some longer samples 2x only, but a good trick nonetheless.

    hey! thanks for the tutorial! I have a question please help me with this. I´ve already created melodies in my volca sample and I use them in live shows but im scared about connecting to the vosyr because I don´t know if the program is going to delete all I have in the memory of the volca and replace them with the original bank of sounds or if Vosyr will read all I´ve done and save without losing my melodies.
