Download Micro Volca Keys 1.5 on Windows PC – 4.7 MB

I love Korg volca keys so much. I can make the kind of electric piano sound that I like with volca keys. But the built in keys are limited to 27. I want to play my volca keys with my 61 keys Korg microKey. But then again, most usb midi keyboard controller does not have any power by itself. And there is no android app that can link up usb midi controller to the volca. And in a stormy night, I create this app to play piano with the sound that I make. The sound response is instant and satisfying. Link up your usb keyboard to your volcas now!

I tweak an electric piano sound that I love and play with micro key. I release it for free as long as you love music. And I hope you have hours of fun playing.

How it works?
1. As you play on your keyboard, it sends midi info to the app
2. Once the app decode it is a note on or off, it sends to volca via midi
3. Your volca receives the note and play your resonate pitch. The response is instant.

System requirement
1. android phone 4.0 and above
2. microKey 61, 49, 25. Work on any other usb keyboard midi controller.
3. volca keys, beat, bass or sample. Work on any other sound module / keyboard with midi in.

Cable:
1. Usb to midi cable for Korg ($24 in amazon) / Usb to usb for Casio / Yamaha
2. a 4 port usb hub
3. OTG cable ($1 in amazon)

Connection:
