Brake Drum Percussion Instrument

I use this 57 for any instrument or amp, specially when i've get short on specialized percussion mics. This give me a really good range of frequencies to work with.

The Korg Volca Drum is a super fun & creative percussion synthesizer. This Volca definitely is unique. It offers six parts each with layers of two individual sounds per part that can be edited separately or together. Programming is very immediate and the controls invite tweaking without having read the manual. However there are a few settings that aren't immediately intuitive which are accessed with the edit/step button and then scrolled through by the select/parameter knob. These potentially overlooked settings really do add to the sound giving bit reduction, wave folding, overdrive, panning, and gain adjustment. The three distortions here add a bit of grit to the sound and in my experience don't degrade the sound too much either, being mostly consistently useable at maximum settings. The motion record opens up the sound design potential quite a bit even if it is a shame that motion recording isn't available for the resonator parameters. I especially enjoy motion recording the rate of the LFO modifier. So many types of synthetic percussion can be made with this synth and, with choke groups, you can treat multiple sounds as a single instrument set. Programming on the Volca Drum is a joy. I plan on holding onto mine probably forever.

My first cart still working, I use to hall my drum set, percussion set, sound system, 3 to 4 times a week, it is a great cart.

This drum cover works great. I was able to cover my drums, cymbals and all the percussion stuff I have clustered around the drum set. The lightly weighted corners let it just fall into place.

It's a great sounding drum machine for this price point. Initially I was second guessing if 6 instrument slots would be enough vs buying the more expensive TR-8s with 11 instrument slots but it hasn't been an issue since you can sub the slots out for other instruments. Stock patterns are good starting points. Effects are excellent. Don't forget there's software for it if needing to program much more elaborate patterns. Good feel on the buttons and faders. Slight learning curve but there's a free online course when you register the device with Roland. Overall very happy with this little thing.

FUNCTIONAL FOR RUNNING INSTRUMENT AS WELL AS VOCAL MIC FOR TEACHING DRUM ON ZOOM

I have rarely seen an instrument like this. you can create whatever you want with this drum machine. excellent product. easy to use and really good sound. I use it along with a synth and sound is perfect. the amount of possibilities you have is almost endless impossible to find everything inside this little box fantastic. I recommend it especially to create music.

I have three of these and they work great. I really like the roll brake on the side.

Aluminum brake, solid construction, not much else to ask for

Does everything needed, and it didn't brake the BANK!
