Wow: If you own a Volca Sample or are considering one this book is completely essential. The combination of clear concepts, beautiful photographs and audio examples(!) make this The definitive guide to The Volca and truth be told the world would be a better place if all electronic instruments had an Expert Guide penned by Tony Horgan. The Volca can feel a little small and crowded and this guide does an Excellent job of providing clarity and untangling the mystery. Indispensable and sets a new bar for the guide genre.
