The Most Experimental Member of the Volca Family

Part of the Korg Volca series, the Volca Drum offers a decidedly modern approach to electronic percussion. While Keys, Bass, or Beats evoke classics, this model relies on a digital engine and waveguide resonator to break new ground. Compact and standalone, it integrates naturally with other Volcas and chains instantly for hybrid studio or stage setups.

Who Is It For and What Styles?

Ideal for producers of electro, techno, IDM, ambient, or synthwave, the Volca Drum appeals both to beginners curious about sound design and seasoned performers seeking evolving grooves. In the studio, it provides an original sonic palette to enhance your beats. Live, its intuitive sequencer and automations bring dynamic and expressive rhythms to life.
