A quick demo video on some of the basic functions and settings which aren't visible on the front panel.
I don't use the Volcas much so had to hunt around a bit for these tips as the ones I'd bought didn't have the manuals with them. This is just a short how to on changing the Midi channels, setting the Midi clock source to sync either on Auto (default) or to hard sync to the Internal Clock and how to perform a Factory Reset on them.
When I went to use the Keys with the Arturia Keystep Pro I wasn't getting Note Data received by the Volca, only Transport (Stop/Start) and Tempo Data... Cue @Oscillatorsink to the rescue, pointing out that I'd left my RX Short Message Data turned off in Global Parameters..!
I hadn't found anything as to why this was happening by a quick search, as I didn't know what I was looking for in order to review the problem..!
I really hope this is helpful to someone else and saves them from the 2 hours of frustration I experienced..!
Although I was using the Keys here, this also applies to all Volca as far as I know, Certainly the Bass, Beats and Keys which I was using, So I assume to the Drum and FM and Sample, Nu-Bass etc too, let me know if I'm wrong about that though...
I'd be interested to know if it also applies to the Nu: Tekt NTS-1..?
