Korg Volca Nubass Review & Tutorial (I love the sequencer)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 сер 2020
- I got my hand on a Korg Volca Nubass, a nice little box to create acid line with it's own character, mainly due to the vacum tube that Korg put inside. The sequencer is also very intuitive and really inspiring, allowing you to quickly come up with nice acid line.
Worth to mention it , Korg nicely lent me the Volca Nubass.

Great video man, thanks! I just received my Nubass today in the mail and you got me creating bangers already. Cheers!
Haha happy to hear it! Have fun !
Really great tutorial/showcase. Most of the reviews shows only the acid oriented sounds. This beautiful machine is capable of so much more. I love it! Going to try out my brand new Nubass today! Very excited. :)
Thanks , have fun with it and enjoy ! Cheers !
Thanks a lot for sharing! The best review and tutorial on UA-cam in my opinion!
thank you very much, I really appreciate it !
This is an exceptionally well done nubass tutorial. Thanks for posting.🙂
You're very welcome!
Fantastic, clear tutorial. Thanks. Cheers. Lee
Glad it was helpful! thanks !
Great demo - thanks
Thanks for watching! Cheers
The best tutorial. Thanks
Glad it was helpful! Cheers !
Nice tutorial! You saved me.
Haha happy to hear that !
nice review!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for this man. Just got myself the volca nubasss. Got a little lost. I'm good now. 👍
Glad I could help haha ! have fun !
welcome back nice synth mate
Thanks mate !
that plant in the left hand upper corner is becomming very popular with certain youtube chanels ;)
Yeah the IKEA / deco in general are very popular haha. Tbh it feel empty if you don't put nothing.
Btw good job on the Nubass Mate. Always good to see ppl improvising on this. I did a 1 hr Volca Nubass Only Jam and I can say, its hard ...definately harder than the Volca Bass.
Thanks, I haven't try the other volca yet but I will.
Why do you find it harder than volca bass?
Nice review.
I recently started got one of these new, but less than half price, it’s a lot of fun, and one of the best sequencers on an acid-machine. It’s not really a true 303, but it does most of what a 303 can do, and for a novice it’s easy to use.
I have the Roland T-8 too, that’s a really great acid-machine as well, more true to the 303, and a bit of a groove box, but again easy to use and lots of fun.
thanks, yeah it's a great machine, easy to use , great sound, small footprint...
Very helpful,thx
Glad it helped, cheers !
Thanks!
you're welcome!
any way of recreating that sequencer and motion sequencer workflow in the box with vsts or would a arturia keystep trigger vsts like that way?
You can do similar thing with the acid sequencer I've shown here : ua-cam.com/video/s2drgThbQgY/v-deo.html . The motion sequencer any controller with live will do the job
I love it. Stil I know the nubass it is on my 'want to have' List.
Yeah I am hesitating getting one...
Time has come.... I buyed one yesterday😊 can't get enough of acid sound synths.
Great tutorial. I was trying to figure some of the features out and you answered all my questions.
Glad it was helpful! Cheers !
- Sory for my english - Hi, I have a problem with sync MIDI of my Nubass and Behringer RD6.
I change settings 2PPQ to IPPS (because default clock are not tehe same). It's OK with "Sync patch cable" but if I use MIDI cable, clock is not OK. Have you got an idea ?
Thx.
Hard to say without trying and even knowing the rd6, but you should set one in master and the other in slave, the nubass don't have midi out so aybe this one in slave and the rd6 in master clock
Gotta read your manuals.
Can you record parameter changes, say you change cutoff and record the change into the sequencer?
yes there is the motion funstion and you can do that
Does this have a reverb built in? It sounds like there's reverb on it already.
Yeah It's abeton reverb that you hear, it doesnt have a reverb by default
When I push record on my unit, it starts playing as soon as I touch a key. What are you doing different than me?
maybe because mine is conencted by midi ? I don't have it anymore so cannot tell
With regards to playing the sequencer 2x slower, I had this problem when syncing with other gear, it was really annoying, and I wasted a couple of hours trying to solve it.
The default PPQ rate for the Volcas is twice as fast as most other gear.
Whilst powering up hold Function, then press 8, this will toggle the PPQ rate and you can half the default speed, press Record to select the rate.
Apparently you can change this on any Volca released since the Modular?
thanks for letting me know, I have the sq-1 and it's something similar indeed, thanks for the tips !
I didn't quite understand what the transpose does on this synth. Does it simply move the whole sequence to the key you press? I hope so, but it didn't sound like it when you were using it. Is it just for octave transpose per note, or can you transpose the whole sequence to whatever note you press? Or both?
Hi Mitch, the transpose allow you to transpose single note one or two octave upper, which is pretty handu for acid line. I don't think you can transpose the whole sequence like to a particular note
What synth you use to make your introduction rif ?
I've used ableton devices, I might do a video on I made my intro later on this year so stay tuned
What's your setup here? How are you able to get reverb on the bass while also recording both audio and video?
it's all copnected to ableton
Hey brother i love your videos and they help so muchhh! Now how do i correctly open the peak techno template? I downloaded it and i can figure it out. Thanks man
Double click on the alp file it should open a window in Ableton asking you where you want to extract the files. Select the destination folder of your choice. Once the extraction is finished, go in that folder and double click on the als file.
Thabks man! I figured it out.
Thanks for the upload. What exactly does the LFO target amp/pitch/cutoff do?
choose which parameter you want the lfo modulation to be apply
@@audioreakt
Thanks mate. I read about lfo and it makes more sense now.
I just bought one of these. I can't seem to get a handle on how to dial in notes. Since the keyboard is chromatic, and the oscillator pitch knob throws it all out of tune. Maybe I'm missing something, but it would be nice if you could lock it to specific notes. I'm forced to use a tuner in my DAW to detect what notes they are.
what you wanna do ? play in a scale ? Play with an external keyboard ? If you tune one of the note, with the tuner, the other one should follow
@@audioreakt Thanks for the reply. Yes, makes sense - tuning in a key and the rest follow. I use gtune in my DAW, but what if you didn't have a DAW or any other external tuning device? Tune by ear? Seems strange for a piece of advanced electronics, but I'm also new to synthesis.
Hey, can anyone help me figure out if we can chain patterns in this volca?
sorry I don't have it anymore and cannot remember
Yes you can.
I have sometimes hard time to make a descend bass line on it.
there are days like this... and other day you just turn it on, tweak two knob and boom !
@@audioreakt Wow you feel me!
Some are blue and some are blue & black is there a difference?
what are you taliking about ?
@@audioreakt some of these appear all blue casing. Some are have blue & half black or are my eyes faulty.
I'm not convinced with this machine. The two reviews ive watched the sound seems muddy
ps; The two waveforms sounded the same!
Ok, I don't find it especially muddy,. And for the two waveform, they are indeed very close , you need to open the filter and add a bit of reso to hear they are different
Good sequencer so...No MIDI out.
Korg you cheep bastard.
To be fair that's what put me out from buying it... I
There are cheap solderless mods for the midi out, in case it helps (haven't tried them myself)
Is there midi out through USB?
Beefy beef. It sounds like roast beef. I smell like beef, cinnamon and moldy cheese.
😂😂
