- There is a new version of this editor here: • V2 Volca Drum Editor /...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is an editor and sequencer for the Korg Volca Drum I have created with Pure Data.
After downloading the patch you can open it in Pure Data (vanilla) or Purr Data or Plugdata (or other Pure Data software)
With a MIDI Interface Box - send USB MIDI from Pure Data to the box and to the Volca Drum via a MIDI cable.
The Editor / Sequencer sends to MIDI to parts 1 - 6 the Volca Drum has to be in 1-6 MIDI channel mode. Your Volca Drum may be in this mode already but if not: Hold REC as you switch on the Volca Drum and press one of the part buttons to see the display state " MID 1 - - 6 "

Pure Data, Purr Data, or Plugdata?
Pure Data is the original, vanilla software that other Pure Data software is based on.
You might find it works when others do not work for your computer so try original Pure Data if others have issues for you. It’s a bit more difficult to use, but is the most up to date.
Purr Data has a much nicer GUI than vanilla and is easier to use because of it. It has additional features and extra content.
Plugdata can be used as a VST in your DAW. You can use it to make VSTs based on your Pure Data / plugdata patches. It can also be used as Standalone.
It is an alpha release so at the moment there are bugs and may crash. It also has an attractive GUI.

That is actually sick.
Incredible! Thank you!
Phenomenal, thank you for sharing
Wow absolutly Amazing thanks
Epic intrigue.
this is dope！
Sick
amazing work! i have a problem with the adc~dac part of the patch. I keep hearing my microphone input and can't find any help online..
Hi, the adc~ and dac~ objects are for if you want the Volca Drum audio output to be sent to pure data. Audio settings can be set so an audio interface is used with the Volca Drum as it's input. That way you can have your Volca Drum audio sent into the computer to record etc. You might want your Volca Drum audio sent elsewhere such as a DAW or some hardware and not use the adc~ dac~. At the moment the audio settings have your microphone as the input. You can change this in the audio settings / preferences in Pure Data. Or you could delete the adc~ dac~ part of the patch if you don't need audio input to Pure Data. I hope that helps. Thanks.
I am thinking of adapting this for use with the Organelle-M. This would allow it to be standalone without a computer. It would be cool to marry an Organelle running this patch with a Volca drum.
I wish I could use something like this without the synth
You can use it to sequence other Synths or a DAW not just the volca drum. It sequences MIDI Channels 1, 2, 3, 4 , 5 and 6. The MIDI can also be sent to other software that uses MIDI even if it isn't a synth. It sends CC messages which can be mapped to parameters.
Oh, nice gonna try that out
aNY CHANCE THIS COuld be used in plugdata and control a drums in daw like bitwig ?
Hi, sorry for the slow reply. Yes it is possible. I think it would have to amend a bit it inside of plugdata for that to work. However I have got it to sequence other DAWs without plugdata by sending it's MIDI to a DAW ( in my case on Linux using JACK Patchbay) on Mac and Windows it is possible to send the MIDI from Pure data to a DAW but I don't know exactly how it works. It would control drums on MIDI Channels 1, 2, 3, 4 , 5 and 6. Run in standalone without plugdata and sending it's MIDI to Bitwig.
@@noiseaud sick! something like this possible with syntakt?
@@atetraxx Hi, yes it is possible - as long as a Synth, drum machine, sampler etc has MIDI in, receives MIDI Control Change messages for it's parameters and has MIDI input for it's sequencer.. then something like this pure data volca drum editor can be created for that particular hardware ( such as the syntakt) I don't have a syntakt to work with - although I can always read the syntakt manual and look up CC messages etc and work with pure data with that information - if I don't own the synth myself then it would be a creative community project where the patch would be tested out and improved by other people who do own the synth sending me feedback. Also as pure data is open source - patches I make in pure data are customizable by other pure data users.
@@noiseaud thanks, maybe I'll see what I can come up with and share it with you.
@@atetraxx great, thank you. In the volca drum editor / sequencer patch: the object "ctlout" sends numbers for CC messages. The syntakt will be able to receive CC messages /numbers) so the "ctlout" would be starting point to reverse engineer it.
work with mac?
Hi, Yes. I have just updated the video description to explain more. Hope that helps.
@@noiseaud recently i bought a midi interface for use this but i cant figure it out. only sends midi to VC part 1, what im doing wrong?
@@noiseaud i fix it. the thing was i had the volca drum in to the individual midi channel mode, i changed to 1-6 midi channel mode and it runs fantastic!
@@cacaricomora Thank you - I'm glad you got it working. I will add the 1-6 midi channel mode information to the video description.
