    Sample 2 does have a delay function. Press the function button and turn the start point knob. The display will read dl.00 - dl.66

    I think it’s crazy to go to that amount for delay instead of just getting one, but you’re way is genius in my humble opinion! I really learned something valuable! Thank you for sharing!

    1:31 - motion sequencing can be done with any of the clear knobs (except for Tempo), and can also be programmed by holding down the individual key when you first enter it in Step Mode and adjusting the parameters while the key is depressed. Like in your demo, the LED for the step will blink as the parameters are adjusted to indicate that they are being recorded for that step.
    If you really want to just go wild and "doodle" in the parameter changes, you can hit the record button while you have Motion Sequencing turned on, then adjust the parameters while the loop is playing. This works really well for adding some variety to high-hat hits and record scratches for example.

    I wonder if you can help me confirm a thing ... There is something with my Volca ( or it's that way on all volca Sample 2 ) ... I have a pattern with some muted samples. When I use the "solo" function, it does what it does, but after I turn the "solo" off, all parts are unmuted automatically. I want the muted to stay muted, but may be that's how the Sample 2 works ? : )

    These really are pro tips! Can't overstate how useful a sequencer is when combined with samples! 😳
    How does that box handle sample lengths? Like that piano sample was a good 8-10 seconds long. If you include it in a pattern does it truncate and restart before finishing according to the pattern length? I hope that made sense.

    • @dylan_kelly
      @dylan_kelly 3 роки тому +2

      If you include a sample that's longer as part of a sequence it will cut off and restart when the sequence loops, but if you're "playing" any sample with your fingers live, it will continue until it finishes.

      If I want a sample to play over more than one measure I just copy the measure to another pattern but remove the trigger of that sample. That way everything else repeats but the sample continues through its playback.

    Hey Josh just a question regarding motion sequencing pitch, does that mean I can create a sequence of a sample in different pitches? The one thing holding me back from buying a Volca Sample is the inability to play samples chromatically. But this tip reminds me of how you program notes on some Pocket Operators. Thank you for this video!

    • @JoshIsMakingMusic
      @JoshIsMakingMusic  2 роки тому

      Yep, if you motion sequence it, you can program in melodies, similar to sequencing pitched samples on the PO-33 pocket operator.

      ​@apluve178 not sure if this is helpful now but volca sample cannot chromatically play notes from a midi keyboard. There is however, free custom firmware you can install, as well as a special midi cable you can purchase as a workaround. Both options will enable this feature
