10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY SCHEME

The product price includes 5 years' warranty and 30 day money back guarantee.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:

  • Warranty is extended to 10 years from the date of delivery.
  • Our Money Back guarantee is extended from 30 days to 180 days (terms apply after 30 days)
  • Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty
  • Claim 50% cash back on the cost of the policy after 10 years if it has not been used!
  • Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold
  • Loan or replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days
  • If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
  • The policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Wide Sonic Scope

Zero rules. DSP analogue modelling power. The Korg Volca Drum isn't like a PCM-sampled drum machine, that focuses on a snare, kick, and cymbal samples, that can restrict your creativity. It uses DSP powered analogue modelling to give you more variety in your sounds. Meaning you can go much deep in your drum sound creation. It is based on oscillators instead of samples. Due to this, you can create a wide variety of percussion sounds. You're not just limited to drums, thanks to the DSP process, you can create any sort of sound within the limitations of the six parts.

The two-layer sound design offers, sine, sawtooth, noise and you can use these three waveforms to create whatever sound you want. Using the wavefolder depth to add complex overtones, and use overdrive to give your sounds more impact. The Korg Volca Drum allows you to create your own distinct sound.

Rich Resonances

Using the Waveguide resonator, you can add rich resonances to your sounds. There are two types of resonator styles. The tube setting replicates the resonances of a cylindrical object. Anything from a snare housing, to a very long pipe. The strings setting gives you a much more metallic resonance. Control, the Decay, Body, or Tune of these settings and create otherworldly or idiosyncratic sounds with a twist of a knob

Simple Sequencing

Sequencing your drums has never been easier. Using the 16-step sequencer you can improvise, arrange, and deliver your music to the world. There are 16 buttons which control your steps and these can be selected to start and end at any point so you can create interesting polyrhythms.

Excellent Design

Korg's instruments are always beautifully designed with function in mind. The Volca Drums is no exception. The design features a clear and retro-inspired LCD screen which gives you the low down on all of your parameters. The display is bright and clear and is perfect for performing on a dark stage.

The Volca Drum is extremely compact too and has all the features you need for playing it on the go. Headphones, built-in speakers, battery powered. Enjoy it anywhere!
