Korg Volca FM Digital FM Synthesizer

Fans of digital synthesizers and FM synthesis will be inspired by the Korg Volca FM 2, a compact, linkable, fun, and affordable polyphonic digital synthesizer with unique sounds, effects, and an easy-to-use sequencer. Building upon the success of the original Volca FM, Korg ups the ante with more polyphony, effects, presets locations, and connectivity. The FM2 now sports six voices, a lush reverb, 64 preset locations, and MIDI in and out via 3.5mm jacks.

The FM2 faithfully reproduces the sounds of classic FM synthesizers with sharp, metallic sounds, notable electric pianos, and deep, full bass. The unit features 32 algorithms that provide complete compatibility and can even load files in the SysEx/SYX format of the Yamaha DX7. The Volca FM 2 makes editing patches easy and accessible with single knobs mapped to multiple parameters. The hardcore programmers can menu dive into full parameter edits and a Parameter List Guide is included.

Double the Power
  • With 6 voices (instead of the 3 of its predecessor) the Volca FM 2 brings a new world of harmonic possibilities to your production.
  • Now it is possible to play, sequence, or arpeggiate complex chords with up to 6 voices in order to bring a unique flavor to your music production. No more running out of voices when sequencing melody, harmony, and bass.
  • Moreover, the Volca FM 2 is now velocity sensitive via MIDI, which coupled with its 6 voice polyphony, provides a much more expressive and nuanced playing experience than ever before.
More Effects
By popular request, Volca FM 2 includes a lush Reverb effect in addition to the Chorus effect. Each of these two effects can be used and adjusted individually to add the finishing touch to any FM sound you want.
External Sequencing and Connectivity
In addition to MIDI in, the Volca FM 2 also includes a MIDI out (in/out via 3.5 mm TRS), making it possible to use the intuitive Volca internal sequencer to control other devices through MIDI—a perfect addition to your standalone setup. Of course, it also works well with your DAW of choice thanks its ability to recieve note, control, and clock via the MIDI input.
Powerful Sequencer and Functions
  • The internal sequencer offers looping up to 16 steps, allowing you to record your performance on the touch panel keyboard as you play. Up to 16 sequence patterns can be stored in the internal memory.
  • Volca FM 2 also incorporates a motion sequence function to record in real time all the subtle nuances of your playing and knob movements, letting you add time-varying change to the sound. This is a great way to polish your loops, and also lets you generate highly original live performances.
  • New program randomization and performance oriented functions.
  • In order to spice things up, the new generation of Volca FM 2 includes a brand-new program randomizer, letting you find new inspiration through happy accidents and unexpected patches.
  • Of course, it still incorporates highly acclaimed functions such as the warp active step, pattern chain, and an improved arpeggiator, making it easy to create crazy looping rhythms and patterns.
  • In addition to the active step function that lets you skip steps during a sequence, the Volca FM 2 provides new functions that enable you to generate more irregular rhythms. If the active step is fewer than 16 steps, you can use the warp active step function to compensate, so you occupy the same playback time as 16 steps; then by synchronizing the playback with another Volca series unit, you can deliberately skew the step timing to generate truly unconventional performances.
  • Furthermore, the pattern chain function lets you connect multiple sequence patterns for successive playback, making it possible to construct large-scale developments of 32, 64, or even 256 steps by joining up to 16 sequences.
Full Classic SysEx Compatibility
The Volca FM 2 perfectly reproduces the sound engine of the Yamaha DX7, the classic digital synthesizer that made the world aware of FM synthesis. Its six operators and 32 algorithms provide complete compatibility, and it can even load files in the SysEx/SYX format.
Super-Easy Sound Editing
The Volca FM 2 makes FM sound editing accessible with the Modulator and Carrier knobs. The knob movements are mapped to multiple parameters for sound changes that are easy to understand. FM enthusiasts can also menu dive into full parameter edits. The Volca FM 2 comes accompanied with a Parameter List Guide to assist you in your explorations.
Unbeatable Form Factor
Following the Volca tradition, the new Volca FM 2 comes in a portable form factor that you can take anywhere. Totally hands on with plenty of knobs, for on-the-fly sound editing. Volca FM 2 runs on 6 AA batteries, has an integrated speaker, and at only 360g / 12.6 oz (without batteries), it is the perfect standalone. Furthermore, with Sync In/Out and MIDI In/Out connections, it integrates seamlessly with your live rig, production studio, and any other Volca.
Free Online Editor
In collaboration with Oscillator Sink, the free online editor, old and new Volca FM users can easily modify their patches—no installation required.
