Quite the opposite. It's an FM synth, so go for it. As Z already pointed out, FM synths are all pretty much the same. I just googled "korg volca fm synthesis tutorial" and came up with a few that look good. I'd suggest Mark Doty's one. Oh, good to know. Thanks, I appreciate it. I'll give the Volca ...

Volca FM

Seriously?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is this where you say, Volca is a toy don't bring it into a conversation for grown ups?

As you can tell from my initial question and my comments i'm not exactly "experienced" so yeah... seriously.

Thanks all. I have a JV2080, Volca FM and a yamaha tg33. Think any of these can handle the sound? If once I get the sound the synth can modulate it in the same way it modulates throughout the track? Maybe something like the DX200 (as there is a patch base editor for it on mac now) could handle the s...

The FM clangy sound modulates throughout the track which make my think it's an FM synth with some sort of sliders, knobs etc. I could imagine something like Volca Drums, but the track came our before that synth was released. I guess it could just be modulated with a frequen...

Also sounds similar to a Pearl Syncussion (or clone). But I have a Syncussion SY-1m and have spent hours working wit...

Hello. I'm loving the keys in this. Not the harmonica type sound but the cheap sounding electric piano. https://soundcloud.com/ruff-records-1/b5-bail-out-the-pig-snippet I'm assuming it could come from an old casio or yamaha. potentially the YAMAHA - PSR-185 But ideally i'd like something with midi ...

Thanks so much gang. really appreciated!

Hello. Can anyone name this small synth in front of the 808?
(Bit of an accidental pun as the dude is Graham from 808 State)
