General Gear • Re: Song mode drum machines

Most Korg Volca's seem to have it, as do the Roland x0x drummachines.
I have three Volcas: Beats, Drum and Modular, and neither has a song mode. I've read that the Sample has a song mode, albeit it's very limited (only 16 slots where each slot specifies which pattern to play and for how many bars).

Some Volcas do have a pattern-chain mode, though, where you can play a certain number of consecutive patterns in order to build sequences that are longer than 1 bar. Modular and Drum have it; I think also Sample and FM. Maybe all Volcas except for the original ones (Bass, Keys and Beats) have pattern chaining. I never use it, though, because you lose a lot of performance control: for instance, if you mute parts while one pattern is playing, the mute settings reset for the next pattern.
