Powerful and Compact - The Korg Volca FM2 Digital FM Synthesizer

The next-gen Volca FM is a powerful 6-voice, 6-Operator FM synthesizer with all 32 classic algorithms, a 16-step loop sequencer, effects and a powerful arpeggiator that perfectly reproduces the sound of the classic Yamaha DX7 and is completely compatible with SYS-EX patches for the DX7 as well. Battery (included) or adapter (optional) operated with built-in speakers and a compact and light chassis, the Volca FM is the ultimate portable FM solution for all musicians. This new generation – with double the voices of its predecessor, additional effects, expanded MIDI connectivity, and intuitive interface – is poised to bring unprecedented possibilities to your setup, and revolutionize your studio with new musical ideas.
