If the Volca at least could function as a battery recharger, when plugged into power. Many dirt cheap portable CD-player have that function, so that can't be expensive to include.

What happens when it tries to recharge the non-rechargable batteries you put in there?

Yeah, but one of the thing main about the Korg mini's is that they are so portable. I already have a battery recharger, but that means I need to pack 1 more box if I want to go travelling with Volca...

Less the better

Well, obviously you need to use rechargeable batteries

Still contemplating on this...

I feel like, 'I either get them them all, or none'.

Hey guys, the manuals for the Volca boxes is now available!

Some points of note...

The MIDI Channel is assignable from 1-16 (Yay!)

For the Volca Beats, the Stutter 'Time' and 'Depth', and the 'PCM Speed' knobs can be recorded using Motion Recording feature.

For Volca Keys, all transparent knobs other than the PEAK knob (below VCF) & TEMPO knob can be recorded with motion sequencing - I make that 13 parameters!

No mention of Motion Recording for knob automation in the Volca Bass manual though
