Noob: Multiple Volcas and Ableton

[fireapplered]

Hi all,

Please excuse the noob question, i'm just really starting out and while i'm good with the DAW side of things I've never had experience with MIDI or hardware and I'm planning to add a few Volcas to my Ableton/Push set up.

I seen how you can hook up one Volca to Ableton, with a midi lead and sound input to audio interface. But how would be able to use several at once? I have a NI Komplete Audio 6. What would I need to add?

Also, once you are triggering a Volca with midi in Ableton is it possible to the automate the volca parameters in an Ableton automation lane? Or can you only record that in real time as audio?

Thanks in advance.

Apart from enough MIDI cables / outputs, you will need External Instrument Rack for Volca. Then you can play and record them as any usual synth within Live.
