What mod does it have. Is it like a devilfish mod. I was under the impression that these were so that you can sync it with something other than a 606 through the midi CV gate, letting you start/stop it, but the notes need to be entered in the 303 itself.
As for using things like 3-osc to make a 303, its not the same. Heaps of synths can make acid sounds, but they won't make a 303 sound. there is a difference between acid and 303. |

It's a retrofit. Basically it's got CV inputs for gate, note, and filter cut-off.
I have a device for converting MIDI to gate info.

| Is it one of the Kenton midi>CV converters? Are you trying to run patterns or play the notes through a midi keyboard? |

Rebirth. Its not VST, you have to run it through rewire. |

So..No-one wanna answer my question... so I take it NO, U don't use Fruity Loops for making those 303 sounds...
So are U all using tb-303?? And it is hardware? |

| You can get so many sounds from a 303 that I dont know what a 303 sound really is. |

Yes,a 303 is a monophonic bassline synth that can make a lot of sounds, but when people talk about the "303" sound, they are referring to acid.
And yes, people still enjoy acid. Heaps of psy and goa comes from 303s, a lot of german trance basslines come from a TB-303. Its one of the most redicuously overpriced synths ever, especially considering is runs off bateries, it has no midi capabilities (unless modified), it only has one oscillator running at a time and it was made in 1984.
Joi, I seriously doubt everyone here is using a reall TB-303. Not everyone agrees with this, but just use rebirth. If you know what you're doing, you can get the sweetest damn acid out of it. |

| Damn, I don't have money to buy Rebirth :( But I really would LOVE to get those 303 sounds... Anyone know good trix how to get them out of Fruity or Reason? |

| You won't get it out of fruity mate. My production partner has been trying for years making psy and acid on fruity. He gets some amazinf sounds out of the Ts-404 but it doesn't compare to a 303. As I said earlier, you can get "acid" sounds out of a lot of machines, but you won't get a 303 out of them. I've tried Tau and wasn't impressed. |

There was a 303 software synth attempt in the last issue of Computer music mag, its basic but it sounds 303ish,
I always use one of the sounds from the 'ModWhl Seq. Sounds' Folder in Albino for my 303 sounds |
