I guess I am an old fart. I like the videos but hey just seem like expensive toys to me. Doesn't mean I wouldn't like one but not a high priority. I would however like to see how some of you all use these day to day. Do any of you have any videos of your work with these?

Actually, they are not that expensive and all offer MIDI and CC control. This right there makes them cheap analog sound modules that can be added to any recording/sequencing set up, professional or not. They are only toys if you're not planning on making real music with them.

I don't disagree! This is new to me and I am intrigued by the videos but the type of music using them is new to me as well which is why I would like to see what people here are doing with them. I might not be a kid anymore but I ammcertinly open to new music and gear. Everyone be aware I am not knocking them but until I understand their capabilities toy like is all the are although I can see some possibilities for them it isn't clear. I mean no disrespect.

Cool vid. I love watching things evolve in it. Once they get into my area I will take a closer look at them.

I used my Volca's (+ monotribe) to make a kinda analog electribe, I use a EMX1 and a 1 to 4 midi splitter.
Assigned the Beats to the drum section, Monotribe CH1, VolcaBass, CH2 and the keys for CH 3 – 5 …. For poly I know it’s tedious to program chords note by note … but I like that aspect of making music.

I split the knobs on the EMX1 into control sections for the Volca’s and record the motion control off the EMX1

Just my take on it
