{"product_id":"korg-volca-fm-2-synthesizer-with-sequencer","title":"Korg Volca FM 2 Synthesizer with Sequencer","description":"\u003cp\u003eVolca FM 2 puts six-operator frequency modulation into Korg's pocket format, with six voices of polyphony and 64 program slots. A 27-key touch pad, a 16-step sequencer and onboard chorus and reverb keep the whole thing self-contained. Battery power keeps it portable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSix operators, 32 algorithms\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe engine follows the classic FM layout, with operators arranged across 32 algorithms. Panel controls handle modulator and carrier attack and decay, LFO rate and pitch depth, algorithm choice and a randomise function. Every operator can be edited in full once you drop into edit mode. Old DX7 patches load in as SYX files over MIDI.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSequencing and motion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne sequencer part runs 16 steps across 16 storable patterns. Motion recording captures knob movements as they happen, while active step and warp active step let you skip or stretch parts of a pattern on the fly. Patterns chain together. For tracking by ear there is a metronome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eVoicing and effects\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoly, mono and unison modes change how those voices get allocated. Nine arpeggiator types are built from rise, fall and random shapes, three patterns apiece. Chorus and reverb each get a dedicated level control. Transpose, velocity and octave sit on the panel too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHooking it up\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSync in and out on 3.5 mm jacks tie the unit into a wider setup, and two of them can pass sound programs and sequence data between each other. MIDI in and out use 3.5 mm stereo connectors, so a type-A adapter is needed. Audio leaves through a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Six AA batteries last about ten hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSee it in action\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ms-video\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CB3nlFBvu8s\" title=\"Korg Volca FM 2 Synthesizer with Sequencer official video\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ms-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eKeyboard\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMulti touch 27 key keypad\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSynthesizer Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFM synthesis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaximum Polyphony\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 voices\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStructure\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 operators, 32 algorithms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNumber of Programs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEdit parameters\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModulator (Attack, Decay), Carrier (Attack, Decay), LFO (Rate, P.Depth), Algrtm, Randomize Available to edit full parameters for each operator in Edit Mode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eControls\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTranspose, Velocity, Octave, Arp (Type, Div), Chorus Level, Reverb Level\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eArpeggiator Types\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 (each 3 patterns of \"Rise\", \"Fall\", and \"Random\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoice Modes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePoly, Mono, Unison\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEffect\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChorus, Reverb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSequencer Parts\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNumber of Steps\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNumber of Recording Patterns\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSequencer Controls\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotion Sequence, Active Step, Warp Active Step, Pattern Chain, Metronome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAudio Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeadphones (3.5mm stereo mini jack)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSync\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSync In (3.5mm monaural mini jack, Maximum input level: 20V) Sync Out (3.5mm monaural mini jack, Output level: 5V) When two units of volca fm, available to export the sound programs and sequence data from a volca fm to the other one\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMIDI\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIN , OUT Note: 3.5mm stereo mini jack connector (type-A MIDI adaptor needed) Available to convert and load SYS-EX\/SYX files from Yamaha DX7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower Supply\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAA alkaline battery x 6 or AA nickel-metal hydride battery x 6 Or AC adapter (DC 9V) (optional)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBattery Life\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApproximately 10 hours (using alkaline batteries)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions (W x D x H)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e193 x 115 x 40 mm \/ 7.60” x 4.53” x 1.57”\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e360 g \/ 12.70 oz.
