First drum machine
DonSchlup 13.08.2018
I gotta be honest. I'm a guitar player who's looking to experiment with some different stuff and didn't really know what to look for in a drum machine. So I did my research and my criteria was quite simple:

- Affordable
- Sounds ok
- Enough features to keep me interested, but not be overwhelmed
- Looks good (yeah, call me shallow, but the Volca Beats is now in my living room and my wife and I love the vibe!)

The Korg Volca Beats checked every box, so I decided to pull the trigger.

Sure, it's simple, the built-in speaker doesn't carry much weight (not sure if people expect something else from such a tiny speaker), and it's not filled with crazy sounds, but I'm impressed with the vibe I'm hearing out of it. From hip-hop to post-punk, it sounds great and I'm quite happy with the purchase!

Pros: Everything I mentioned before.

Cons: I honestly miss a speaker output to connect to a PA without having to deal with that tiny and flimsy headphone output; And I wish that the cables were connected from the back, not the top.

Still, solid 9/10 for the Korg Volca Beats!

Amazing quality for the money
TheA 05.02.2014
The Korg Volca Beats is filled with features and great drum sounds - both analogue and digital. Some people say that the snare sound is poor. I'd say it's just different. It is not the typical 808-style snare what we have used to hear in analog machines. Volca Beats is a great addition to the both small and big setups. In this price category there just isn't a machine which would beat the Beats.

Onboard speaker for convenience only
Dan Graves 20.05.2020
This is a fantastic little gizmo. It's pretty feature packed once you figure out how to use them all. The unit sounds way better with headphones or through a monitor, so do that right away after purchasing.

Build quality is excellent, and everything works exactly as designed. Would be nice to have a second set of sounds or a swing feature, but at this price point I cannot complain.

Brilliant
Bernard8458 03.01.2015
Great piece of equipment. Im a guitar player really but this little box has inspired me to check out more tech gear.
Got it with the Korg volcanic bass and together they are phenomenonal. On its own its brilliant.

Can't say enough about it.

volca takes some beating.....
Dominic7747 17.12.2014
the korg volca beats is a drum machine. you can sync it to other's in the volca range.
it has a 16 step sequencer and you can also program the volca beats on the fly to create magic, dynamic rythms.
it does not come with a power adaptor (which is a shame) but it does come with 6 batteries so you can have fun straight out the box.
it has 6 analog sounds that you can manipulate pitch and decay, including kick, snare and two toms, and 4 pcm sounds (clap, claves, agogo, and crash) that share a pitch control.
personally, i think the volcas are the best thing since sliced bread, and for value for money, at 100 quid, is outstanding.
you cant go wrong with this.

Great analog toy
a.Scar 01.02.2021
Good one from this korg series. Seems basic at the beginning but the quality of all sounds is really great. I got kinda addicted to the kick and the toms, they are in every song i made!

Tiny but Mighty
gabazz 13.08.2019
This little thing sounds really well. It is small almost like a toy and it is not very expensive, but it sounds really great and it is quite easy and intuitive to use. One of the best purchases I've made. The knobs a re a bit small and require a good grip. But it is beyond my expectations especially for the price.

The snare is a bit weak, you have to pair it up with the clap to work really well.

Sounds absolutely huge despite it's small size. Those with bigger fingers may find tweaking the parameters difficult during a performance. All round great groove box.

It is very portable, the built in speaker is not the best quality but if you connect it to a mixer or amplifier the sound quality is good. Quality is ok, for the price you cannot complain.
This product is ideal for those who want to hear the analogue sound of a drum machine. It never gave me problems, I have it for about two years.
