Korg Volca Mix DJ mikseris

Korg Volca Mix — the analog performance hub for any volca live rig

The Korg Volca Mix is a four-channel analog performance mixer for multi-volca setups. Two mono inputs and one stereo input accept the headphone outputs of three units through 3.5 mm cables, while three VOLCA DC OUT jacks deliver up to 800 mA total. It is the right choice for owners wanting a tidy, all-analog command center for live performance.

What makes this mixer unique in the volca ecosystem

Few compact mixers combine a built-in stereo speaker pair with an analog master chain and DC power distribution for connected instruments. The all-analog Stereo Width Expander broadens a mono source into a stereo image, while the analog Dynamic Range Compressor with side-chain ducking reacts to low-frequency energy.

Mixer architecture — channels, buses, and per-channel control

Built around a four-channel analog mix bus with two monaural channels (volca keys, volca bass, volca beats, volca kick) and one stereo channel (volca sample, volca fm), the mixer feeds a monaural mix send bus to external effects and a stereo AUX In/Return bus for a fourth source.

• This mixer functions as a four-channel analog hub featuring two mono and one stereo input.
• Channel Controls: Lo/Hi Cut, Send Level, Mute, Volume (up to +6 dB gain boost) — every parameter reachable without menu diving.
• Bus: Four-channel analog mix bus, monaural mix send bus, stereo AUX In/Return bus — supports send/return effects.

Master chain and sync — analog processing plus tempo control

Two all-analog processors and a sync engine turn the unit into the tempo brain of the rig. The Stereo Width Expander widens mono sources, while the Dynamic Range Compressor uses low-frequency level changes to duck the high end.

• Master Effects: Analog Stereo Width Expander (Width), Analog Dynamic Range Compressor (Dynamics, Speed) — fully analog signal path.
• Sync Output: 1/8" (3.5 mm) mini-jack, 5 V — standard sync level.

I/O, power, and form factor — stage-ready connections in a 350 g chassis

Connections use 3.5 mm mini-jacks or RCA pin jacks, keeping cable needs minimal. The aluminum-paneled body measures 193 × 115 × 45 mm and weighs 350 g.

• Audio connectivity includes RCA L/R line out (max 11.1 dBu), a 1/8" (3.5 mm) headphone jack, and built-in stereo speakers that can be switched on or off.
• Power: AC adapter (DC 9 V), 300 mA, 3 × VOLCA DC OUT (9 V, up to 800 mA total) — one outlet runs the whole rig.

Who is this product for — rig builders, live performers, and project-studio producers

This mixer is the right choice for owners who need a single hub to mix, power, and tempo-sync three units without filling a stage with cables. It suits electronic musicians building a compact live rig around volca keys, volca bass, volca beats, volca kick, volca sample, or volca fm. Buskers benefit from the built-in stereo speakers.

Availability and release

Korg announced this unit at Winter NAMM 2018 as the first dedicated mixer for the volca line, filling a gap owners had worked around with third-party mixers. It ships with an AC adapter, three DC-DC cables, and three audio cables.
