Yeah, I know it's a bit confusing: Although the case print only says "volca fm", it is actually the FM2. The original FM's display color is red, not teal. Anyways, on both devices I am using custom patches. We are hearing 3 drum sounds (kick, snare, hihats) and 4 tones. The 3 drum sounds and 3 of the tones (bass on G2, bass on A2, sequencer on A3) are played by the Volca Drum. The crazy arp is of course played by the FM2. If you like this kind of minimalistic setup, both devices are great fun, and I do recommend them. Who am I? The Synthesaurus. I'm having fun with my budget devices in my little home studio!
