KORG VOLCA &GUITAR live AMBIENT LOUNGE CHILL JAM (volca keys,bass&beats)...

KORG VOLCA series & GUITAR - a live AMBIENT LOUNGE CHILL SESSION
with some other great synths (Nord Modular, Roland Juno 60, Doepfer MS
404, Waldorf Pulse & Microwave)

This time with a lot of Pad/string sounds and a relaxing video. This was
the last session before I had my accident, so its older than the "last
action rob" space jam. It's dedicated to a new born child in our family :-)

the sequence from 7:00 on was inspired by electronic music 13 and his
great sequence: http://youtu.be/Ksp-96gJa7I thanks for inspiration, Ted

I have described in the video (filmed with 4 cams), what Synths/pedals
are playing/muted. So you don't have to guess the different sounds.
Recorded without overdubs, Noise Reduction and Mastering in just one
take!

ENJOY LISTENING AND WATCHING and ask me if you have any questions:-)

Korg Volca Beats MIDI Out mod

Two days ago a good friend of mine added MIDI-Out to my Volca-Beats. Too bad that I forgot taking pictures when the Volca was opened... Next Time - when adding individual Audio-Outs - I surely will make photos.

The wires go thru the battery case of the Beats and the MIDI-Out-is housed in an old MIDI-Thru-Box (MT-5).  This item routes in normal life 3 MIDI-Ins to 5 MIDI-Outs, but now the 5th Midi-Out is the Output of the Volca Beats!

If I connect the MIDI-Out of the Volca Beats with one of the MIDI-Ins, I have 4 Midi-Outs to sync to the Volca Beats. At the moment I only use it for the Boomerang III Looper, but in the future I will try it with my other Synths & Sequencers (Jomox Xbase 09, Analogue Solutions Europa, Roland Juno 60 with Midi, Waldorf Pulse I & Microwave I , Doepfer MS-404, Nord Modular Rack ....

 

Thanks to Marcbert for Soldering The MIDI-Out!

Korg Volca KEYS, BASS &BEATS / ACID ROCK / Smoke on the water
