So this is coming up[!!!]. Despite the how closed sample importing will seem to be at launch, it looks sexy as hell, and since an sdk is being released, someone could easily come up with a simpler system to import samples.

One question, I do have about it though, before commiting to a pre-order: Will the midi in let me play this as a mono synth (repitching the sample) using a keyboard, or will the different keys just trigger different samples the same way the device's keyboard does?

As with the other Volcas I'd bet that MIDI will allow for some additional control over what is available without. I have all three of the previous Volcas and each have "hidden" parameters and settings that can be accessed via MIDI, so I wouldn't lose all hope on the matter.

I guess the midi notes will trigger different samples. The sample pitch is only modified by its knob.

What I'm lacking now is a MIDI cable, but be sure that I'll plug it to my piano as soon as I get it!
I don't know if that's what you want to know about or DAW sync and such.

im just curious how well midi cc commands work on that bad boy.

I tried yesterday Nitro's trick to sync our DMG to a Monotribe, but in the Volca Bass. The result is pretty satisfying. It does sync well, and when you press Start on the Game Boy, the sequencer starts running too, very nice. However, there are some glitches once in a while (not while playing), like when you press start and the volca's sequencer starts a "beat" later.
Anyways, I loved to have the percussion going on LSDJ while messing about with the Volca. SO COOL.

I have the beats and I'm really enjoying it so far. Can't wait to start spitting MIDI to it though.

The Bass is here!!

I still haven't played much with it, but the hour or so I've used it has given me a very good impression. The sound is quite good! Well, at least in my opinion (take into account this is my first synth ever).

By the way, does anyone know how to change the notes that play when you press the different keys? I heard you can switch between fifths, scales, and things like that.
