UTILIZATION

The setup is fairly simple, the manual is available in French, it is very well done (step by step learning) should be read at least once to understand how storage and backup of the machine, but after all is clear, I just keep the manipulations under the eyes time to remember.

Sequencer 303, everyone knows, we like it or not ...

What I love is the pattern generator, you can choose between 7 personalities pattern, it is a manipulation 'and presto, the machine generated new pattern to the infinite, which can then edit, mix them, in short it is a very big advantage that makes this very intuitive immediately machine! why it deserves a 10 in this category!

SOUNDS

Yes it is quite suitable to my style of music, I've never had a real 303 but honestly its sound (much criticized) suits me very well, very good in the bass may be lacking a little fishing when you climb frequency, but I think it has nothing to envy to Xoxbox sound level.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months, I am very satisfied.

As mentioned above, what I like most is the pattern generator ...

What I like least, and this is his big downside, big downside is the quality of manufacturing, plastic really gives the impression that if it is dropped it will not survive! shame ...

Level value for money it was a little expensive at first (if I had known ...) but its new price (500 € new) already seems to me more correct, it should leave around 350 on the market of the argus so it becomes a good deal!

In short for me it's still a good machine to make acid, now affordable!

This is a monophonic analog synthesizer with: - a mono output
A single-input
-Taking midi in default but out is via cable provides
- Taking a CV
A gate-taking
-A headphone jack
-According to the website of cyclone analogy application is downloadable for my part I did not find I know I'm an idiot in regards to telechargements I though it usually happens!

UTILIZATION

Setup is simple there is no effect. Editing sound is the easiest there is that much.
The filter is quite simply awesome it is normal that a tb.
The sequencer is relatively simple is the same principle as a tb.
I use it a lot with the sequencer live but also that of my MC808 which allows me to create different.
Using it with other sequencers I regret not come to save the songs to be in the bass bot (this may be possible, I have not read about it in the manual).

SOUNDS

the sound is more than adequate for my taste (I know purists will jump too bad but good) I have tried once a tb 303 (I bought the TT 303 the following month!) dice is the first listen it necessarily moves the head and as soon as we begin to touch the filter directly on this stomp it happened the same with the TT 303.
For me it is a synth for acid techno, to be honest I made it with!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 6 months.
The transfer function is pretty well thought it possible to copy a pattern while providing the practical changes when inspiration missing!
I tried a clone (xoxbox) and roland tb 303 for me and the tt303 is that the closest to the original.
It is true that the price can cool more than one, but in comparison with an opportunity to more than 1,500 euros it is obvious that I do it again this choice because I had the chance to put the clone and the original side by rating and the differences are minimal. (I'm far from an expert but I'm not deaf either!)
