Just found a Volca FM and ordered it right away, these things are hard to find. I’m stoked!
That is all. Bye.
jealous
Saw the Sonic State review, put off a bit by the lack of note on velocity. Still jealous though!

<3 this little synth !!
@ghostly606 yeah I heard about that… still was a no brainier for me but I get the drawback. You can always ride the fader! 
I’m still tempted… though I do need a new studio mac (boring), and probably want an organelle more than the volca… gah!
@pselodux for $159 I was willing to take a shot
@Braun3000 $239 in AU 
I love mine!! Enjoy, it’s amazing.
Dying for one in Europe, but no online store have it 
Love the Volca FM! The power lies in the sequencer.
Here’s a little jam I did with the PO-12.
And the bass !
I really like how it sounds when you drop the Octave slider to -1 !!
Very good jam @wildfrontiers !
Hi, I need some confirmation that I’m doing this correctly.
I want my Pocket Operators to slave from my Volca FM, I set it up like the following:
Volca (sync out) > into PO-12 (SY2)
I’ve become unsure whether I am doing it right as the PO doesn’t wait for the master to have Play pressed to start, If I press Play on the PO it just goes, but if I then press Play on the Volca, it all does sound to be in sync. Especially as the master tempo does affect both devices.
Is this the correct functionality for Volca > PO?
I think I use SY4.
I’m not sure the PO waits for the Volca to start though.
But it does synchronize to the Volca tempo.
I think from memory the Volca always spits out the sync pulses, not just on pressing play.
Yeah, that’s the way it’s working. Cool. I can work without the PO’s waiting to play.
According to TE, the SY numbers are…
Volca > PO (SY2)
Volca > PO (SY3) > PO (SY4)
These worked fine.
Anyone got any tips on sound creation/tinkering? I’ve tried to delve blindly into the EDIT mode, but I’m not getting any dramatic changes to occur. Maybe I’m messing around on an operator that isnt impacting much?

First try changing algorithms and then messing with the attack and decay knobs for both carrier and modulator. You’ll get some really dramatic changes that way.
Very cool jam @wildfrontiers
I’ve gotten some pretty rad sounds just switching algorithms and adjusting the mod and carrier
