"you can always leave a dislike that's ok too it doesn't hurt my feelings" first time i ever heard anyone on youtube say this, amazing. reverse psychology or not i just smashed that like button
Wow haha thank you so much! I mean it though, I really don't mind the dislikes. The channel has grown to the point where I have a few haters now that just dislike every video, but if a video is getting an abnormal amount of dislikes, it's great feedback on what I can do better! Thanks for watching :)
I imagine that if a beginner just bought a volca and sees this video, it will be of tremendous help. I am just watching it enjoying the patient and friendly way you do the explaining. You’d be a very good teacher! I like how the Volca sounds so I imagine that if I had one I would build kits in the Deluge and sample everything.
@@FreeBeat I appreciate this tutorial. I just bought my 12 year old this machine and my 15 daughter the nubass 2 for an early Easter Present. This is an invaluable tutorial. Thanks again, u r an excellent teacher. No doubt u must have done your share of music lessons to kids. We just gave them to them last night, I will have them watch this vid a few times as well as ur others.
@@OMG-KMB I think my daughter liked the nub as more than my son plays the drum machine. But my son play the piano and drums so I am sure he will pick it up from time to time. Thx for asking.
I just got a Volca drum and decided to watch some of your videos and I most say that this honestly is the golden standard of TH-cam tutorials. Korg should pay you for this.
I struggled for a time with volca drum but this tutorial really helps a lot! Your instructions and demo are super clear and easy to follow. Thanks so much!
By far the quickest and easiest to understand, get started, Volca Drum Vid out. I knew a lot of the tips already but wish I had seen this video when I first got it.
Thanks so much! I felt a little weird posting a beginner's guide for a device that's been out for 3ish years, I'm hoping someone out there gets a lot out of it haha.
Love my Volca Drum, and all my other Volca gear. They sound great, are compact, portable, easy to learn, battery powered, have sequencers, and built in speakers. Thanks for this video.
Got my volca and messed around with it a bit straight out of the box kmowing basically nothing. Watched this video and i feel like i know exactly where and how to start to make my first beat. Great vid!
Korg should drop their manual and just provide a link to this video. Hands down the best video for a beginner on this machine! I need a video like this for the SQ-64.
I could see myself spending endless hours goofing around with this. Probably not getting anything done, but having fun anyway. Thanks for the tutorial. I may get one someday.
Big up!, you get things straight to the point. Most of them can't really do that with their long mega tutorials, I might only understand half of them. You absolutely have to follow up, do the best volca drum tutorials on YT! ,)
I appreciate the how you explain every detail. I don’t have the volca drum but I find it interesting and, who knows… maybe one day I’ll have one. But I like learning about it. Probability is such a nice feature. I do have that in the Circuit Rhyrhm and it adds a nice level of suspense to a pattern.
It's actually super easy, I just took my time explaining it haha. The main things to remember are to know if you're in edit step mode or not, which sound you have selected, and be aware of any choking sounds :) Thanks for watching!
Great vid as usual, if I had been able to see this back in 2019 the Edit Step explanation alone would have saved me a lot of time and frustration. I was hoping you'd demo the Motion feature, when you combine that with the Wave Rez, Pitch or Modulation it also goes pretty crazy. This synth is a lot of fun, when you let it do its thing you forget what beat your were trying to make in the first place!
Thanks FreeBeat! My VD ain't getting enough love, but I'm gonna play with it Today and try to apply what you taught me here! Your videos helped me a lot! 💚👍
Are those the only kick, snare sounds? Or are there different kick and snare sounds? For example like the alesis sr16 drum machine, which has many kick and snare sounds to choose from. Thanks
Excelent! Thanks a lot for this, very useful. Just a question: when you use the waveguide while playing live it affects to all sounds or just the last one you selected/edited?
@@FreeBeat BTW, Bro... you might want to check out the Modal Sculpt SE, this thing at a little over $200 is right up your alley - for your channel, AND... I know, YOU, could do the damn thing the "justice" it certainty deserves. Check it out! Kindest regards.
I haven't used it, but the Organelle is more of a synth, whereas OP-1 and OP-Z are both grooveboxes/workstations for making full songs. The Organelle might be similar in design and shape, but they couldn't be more different pieces of gear. Thanks for watching!
It really depends on what you're after in a Volca! My top 4 (depending on your needs/wants) would be the Volca Drum, Volca Keys, Volca FM2, and Volca Sample 2.
Cool. Thank you. You got me started. I thought about leaving a dislike just inspire you to be even better than you already are. Haha. Jk. Thanks for taking the time to give people an introduction to this cool little noise machine 🤙🏄
Phonemically: Ha - o - mer - e - a-a-aander. (Or wha- eva- y-y Ch Ch, or whatever your mouth wants to do (plosives sound awesome)) Just have fun with breaking your own vocal chords and embarrass yourself until it falls into a pattern your DM grabs it and QTs it. Sorry Mr. FB, got carried away, inspired by you. Volca Drum is FUN 🥰🍍

Ricky Tinez encouraged dislikes with comments years ago. Part of why I still watch him.

Thanks! I'm definitely looking forward to sampling (or at least sequencing) the Volca Drum with the Deluge, seems like a pretty powerful combo.

How this dude only has 29.2k subbies??? So much good info for free, the algorithm need to sweep by and boost this ish.

Hahaha thanks so much!
Thank you for showing the absolute basic first steps. Too many videos assume the viewer already has a certain knowledge and ability.
Glad you liked it, thanks so much for watching!
I struggled for a time with volca drum but this tutorial really helps a lot! Your instructions and demo are super clear and easy to follow. Thanks so much!
Glad to help!
This is awesome! Every other video doesn’t show basics. As a beginner who’s never used a drum machine this is an awesome video
Happy to help, have fun!
I appreciate your patience on all these videos. Super helpful
Absolutely, the easier it is to understand, the more people we'll have making music!

Volcas are awesome! Thanks for watching :)

Wish I'd found this video sooner, would've saved my Volca quite a bit of dust collecting

Nice one. Good pace and informative
Thanks for watching!
Thank you sir! Great tutorial!
Thanks so much!

Thanks for watching!
To the point and a useful selection of key features presented here. Gets you started right away. Congrats, you're a very good teacher and thanks!
I am a beginner and this was a great video! Thanks for the into!
Glad to help! Thanks for watching :)
Just ordered one of these today. Thank you for the walk-through, i am that much more excited to receive it. 👍
Awesome, I hope you love it! Definitely give it some time figure it out, it'll be overwhelming and difficult to tame at first haha.

Thank you, mine arrived yesterday, this video wil helpl get me started.
Unbelievably helpful. Thankyou
Glad to help :)
I appreciate the how you explain every detail. I don’t have the volca drum but I find it interesting and, who knows… maybe one day I’ll have one. But I like learning about it.
Probability is such a nice feature. I do have that in the Circuit Rhyrhm and it adds a nice level of suspense to a pattern.
Thanks so much! Probability is really cool, I'm glad Korg was able to include it in such an affordable machine!
Your videos all ALWAYS enjoyable! I don't even have this Volca, but I enjoyed the lesson! Thanks FB!
I appreciate you watching!
Just ordered mine today im a guitar player
That outro groove!! 😃
Thanks for doing this, it's not as easy as I thought it would be
It's actually super easy, I just took my time explaining it haha. The main things to remember are to know if you're in edit step mode or not, which sound you have selected, and be aware of any choking sounds :) Thanks for watching!
@@FreeBeat Thanks man
On my wishlist (literally), so this is a useful guide to cut out and keep. Thanks!
Hoping you get one sooner than later, thanks for watching!
@@FreeBeat Thanks for your kind wishes- and the VDrum is no longer on my wishlist: it’s in my studio. Now I’m watching this again…
Great vid as usual, if I had been able to see this back in 2019 the Edit Step explanation alone would have saved me a lot of time and frustration.

This synth is a lot of fun, when you let it do its thing you forget what beat your were trying to make in the first place!
I thought about demoing motion sequencing, but I decided to keep it as simple as possible for first time users. Thanks for watching!
Awesome! Thanks for this!
Of course! Thanks for watching :)
This is really awesome and helpful thanks so much
Glad to help!
9:20 instant ZZ Top!!!❤
:D
Excellent ! Thanks
Thanks for watching!
very helpful
Thanks so much!
Thanks, very helpful
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for a great tutorial!
Thanks for the video !!!
Thanks for watching!
@@FreeBeat is there any chance you could do a tutorial to understand better the wave sounds, eg and the Modulator, i would really appreciate it
Very informative! Thank you
Great stuff. Entertaining and informative. Cheers. Lee
Thanks!
Cool explanation
Thanks for watching!
Excellent video, now I need to go buy a Volca
I highly recommend the Volca Drum!
Great basic intro tutorial dude, well done.
Thank you!
Great stuff man - thank you
I'm samping this video :P
Do ittttt
Thanks FreeBeat! My VD ain't getting enough love, but I'm gonna play with it Today and try to apply what you taught me here! Your videos helped me a lot! 💚👍
Have a blast!
Hi is there a part 2? This one was great.
Thanks! Right now it's just the one, but I have many other Volca Drum videos on the channel :)
Don't you mean 'How to make your first volca drum free beat?' Good on you man!
Hahaha thanks for watching!
Thank you!!
thanks for the vid. i sped it up a bit and you sounded like a robot lol
Excellent video!
Are those the only kick, snare sounds? Or are there different kick and snare sounds? For example like the alesis sr16 drum machine, which has many kick and snare sounds to choose from. Thanks
It's a synth, so you can make many different sounds on it. It sounds like you might be more after a sample player that can play the sounds you like.
Thanks for the video! : ) Can the Korg Volca Drum be used as a sequencer ... for Behringer Neutron for example?
The Volca Drum doesn't have a MIDI out sadly, so no :(
Excelent! Thanks a lot for this, very useful. Just a question: when you use the waveguide while playing live it affects to all sounds or just the last one you selected/edited?
bro is super underrated 💀
Thanks so much!
if you clear all the pre-existing patterns, is there a way to reload the system to all of the defaults it came with?
Can you save different drum patterns for different songs? If so, how many?
Great😂!!!
Thank you!
@@FreeBeat BTW, Bro... you might want to check out the Modal Sculpt SE, this thing at a little over $200 is right up your alley - for your channel, AND... I know, YOU, could do the damn thing the "justice" it certainty deserves. Check it out! Kindest regards.
freebeat, have you ever used the organelle by critter and guitari? it seems like an OP-1 or OP-Z but cheaper
I haven't used it, but the Organelle is more of a synth, whereas OP-1 and OP-Z are both grooveboxes/workstations for making full songs. The Organelle might be similar in design and shape, but they couldn't be more different pieces of gear. Thanks for watching!
Hi, what are your thoughts on the Behinger TD 6? Cheers!
I'm not sure, I've never used one haha.
@@FreeBeat me neither! 🤣
Hello! can you record real-time in this? TIA
thkssss
Thanks for watching!
Do You consider this Volca the best option in regards of which one getting first?
It really depends on what you're after in a Volca! My top 4 (depending on your needs/wants) would be the Volca Drum, Volca Keys, Volca FM2, and Volca Sample 2.
@@FreeBeat Thanks for answering man! I aim to play techno jams, and the drum seemed basic to me but i'm still in diapers haha
time to make my own Streets Of Rage music
Cool. Thank you. You got me started. I thought about leaving a dislike just inspire you to be even better than you already are. Haha. Jk. Thanks for taking the time to give people an introduction to this cool little noise machine 🤙🏄
Thank you so much!
Excellent technical presentation, but the machine just sounds like robot farts
I'll stick to the acoustic guitar thanks... Puuuh, this is too complicated
Sorry you feel that way! Just think of it as, "select your sound, place it on the step you want, and repeat"
Phonemically: Ha - o - mer - e - a-a-aander. (Or wha- eva- y-y Ch Ch, or whatever your mouth wants to do (plosives sound awesome))
Just have fun with breaking your own vocal chords and embarrass yourself until it falls into a pattern your DM grabs it and QTs it.

Volca Drum is FUN 🥰🍍
