I have a Volca FM as well. But it’s not the best either for FM. I wish the DX200 could download DX7 patches as easy as Volca Fm did. But you can only get so many in. It’s a keeper though. |

Not luckely i bought it in april, used just 5/6 times for few moments; now after some months i'm seeing today that it doesn't turn on; i' ve tried the same adapter (9v, 500ma) for the Volca Modular and it works on it, so i believe that the problem is on the Volca Fm. I've tried batteries and the Fm turns on. Have you expérienced something like that? |

What you both really need is a Korg OPSIX, there's no better hardware FM synth out there  Regards the problem you're having, since it still works on batteies it sounds as if you might have a broken solder joint on the power jack. To fix it, maybe just open it up and re-heat the solder joints connecting the power jack. |

I'm quite happy with Reface CS. Looper is kind of useless, but the VA synth engine is superb. This bad guy came tomorrow...

Devo used to rock those. They’re a bit novelty, but they can be fun. |

I'll try to get trigger clock out tomorrow.. It's just another kind of home organ with accomplainment,but looks funny. |

I had a modified omnichord a while back, had to sell when I was strapped for cash, but damn it was fun: https://www.folktek.com/instruments/sym ... hord-om-84 ^^^Folktek, also well worth checking out for their other creations |

Just for info: No luck with this... rhythm and accomplainment is driven by ay-5-1315 chip, wich has integrated oscillator (controlled by potentiometer), osc clock is feeded back to chip. Thus for getting a clock out of it I'd have to take osc clock, feed it somewhere else, divide to clock and feed original clock back to a chip. Too complicated for me now. I can get triggers for individual sounds, but there's no reason to trigger anything else with it, so... |

Roland had like 4 new ones of those awhile back. But it’d only be a real use to a drummer or conga player. |

It's mostly usable as an extension to drummachine, e.g. TR606 (which lacks hand clap, but has 2 programmable trigger outputs). But I also use it in conjunction with nord drum1 as a second snare (hand clap...) with external trigger pad... But yeah, it's a one-trick pony. |

Nothing wrong with one trick pony gear. It's like being in a box. But if you can use it in a way to think outside that box, then it's satisfying. Pocket Operators are limited, but if you sample them, and add effects, you can get great samples. |

So these have been off the market lately. I looked on eBay, Perfect Circuit, Reverb, and FINALLY one popped up. I picked it up because I wanted a 3rd oscillator for my Crave. Without a Envelope it’s just a constant saw, square or triangle wave. Without a filter, you can’t shape it much. Without a VCA, you can’t amplify it. That’s why The Crave covered most of those for me, but only had the 2 waveforms. The pedal has 3, so it should thicken my signals. It’s coming in from Austin Texas, so I can’t wait to mess with it. MyXR20 supposed to be picked up, but I guess my roommate wasn’t allowed to pick it up for me. (I had to work today), and if I work late tomorrow I can’t get it until Wednesday.
