Korg are apparently presenting three small analog groove boxes at Musik Messe 2013. The volca bass, volca beats, and volca keys. No details/specs yet but here are some images:

If you click "show image" you should see larger versions of the images above.

Word on the street is about €140, but that is purely rumors. I guess we'll get the full story tomorrow. :)

From what I've heard, the volca keys might do some sort of polyphony (like you can also see on the panel, poly and uni, etc). Don't know if it's some sort of paraphonic technology.

The middle one has a button called "Grain" that looks interesting indeed

what would you expect from a company in the synth manufacturing industry?
social housing?
saving an endangered species?
better bus routes for rural areas?

yep, they are just serving some specific public demand which Roland is unable or better let's say unwilling to do

Wow! Those look amazing.

Monosynth
Polysynth
Analog+pcm drums

I originally got the Monotron as a nice toy but have used it so much on various sound design things that it puts my other synths to shame

Never underestimate cheap toys!
Remember TB-303?

It looks like Korg is on the roll...well done I say. The more analog synths and beat-box-gadgets the better. Now...where's my MS20 Mini....hurry up Korg! I have an MS20 duet to do with a friend who has the original.
