Be careful what you suggest, I suggest.

Beardyman improvises from suggestions from a small audience invited to bring their own props. Props.

This video shows to program a Roland TB 303 and Roland TR 909 drum machine.

Another howto, this time for a Roland TB-303 Bassline and a TR-909 Rhythm Composer. For the 303 I used the pattern from Fatboy Slim’s song: “Everybody needs a 303″.

The 909 pattern is a quite simple Kick, Snare and Hihat pattern.Future Retro Mobius sequencer is master midi clock and the 303/909 follow as slaves. The 303 is connected via a Doepfer MSY2 converter.

This minimal techno jam features Roland TB-303, through a Ibanez AD202 (Delay), & Roland TR-909 through a Ibanez UE400 (compression).

Analog Violence, via nvanzoeren:

Insane Analog Violence in this TB-303 vs TR-909 Battle.

303 gets processed by the Awfull Ibanez AD-202 while the 909 has backup from the Undefeated Ibanez UE-400.

Analog meets analog, who will win?

Roland TB-303, Jomox 999 & Analogue Systems Acid

Description:

via bigcitymusic:

We love the Roland TB-303 (who doesn’t?), so we went nuts with some Analogue Systems rs95 oscillators, triggering them with the CV and Gate outputs from the 303.

The sound of the 303 is given additional balls by processing it through the Malekko B:Assmaster Germanium pedal…sacrilege.

You can hear the TB-303 without extra balls at the very end between 6:12 – 6:18.

Along with the A.S. rs95 oscillators we’re also using the rs110 Multimode Filter, the rs120 Comb Filter, and the rs100 Low Pass Filter.

The drums sounds are from the behemoth Jomox XBase 999 and we’re using the Kenton Pro Solo MIDI-CV converter to sync the 303. One of the cymbals from the Jomox is running through the A.S. rs310 Reverb/Chorus module, which is being modulated by the rs80 LFO’s triangle wave. The rs290 Sample/Delay module is providing the delay for that cymbal as well. All of these sounds are being mixed by the rs165 Signal Mixer.

bigcitymusic demos the Analogue Solutions Trans Bass Xpress TB-303 Clone, a faithful clone of the synth engine of the Roland TB-303. 

The Trans Bass Xpress does not have a sequencer built in, so you have to use a MIDI sequencer with it. But this offers possibilities for more interesting patterns and greater performance capabilities.

Probably no synth has been cloned more times, both in hardware and software, than the Roland TB303.

But while excellent hardware 303 clones (FR777) have been available for years, virtual versions have never been completely satisfying.

AudioRealism’s BassLine 2 changes that. It cranks out authentic 303 sounds, using a simple interface that will be familiar to 303 users

According to AudioRealism, “analog modeling techniques have been employed to create a DSP-algorithm that accurately emulates every aspect of the original Bass Line, from growling basses to hollow middles and beeping highs with metal rattling accents.”

While that may sound like typical marketing-speak, AudioRealism actually delivers.

Bass Line 2 creates all types of 303 sounds, it has a 303-like interface, it offers working techniques similar to the 303’s and it intelligently expands on the 303’s capabilities.

The only thing you’ll find missing is DIN-SYNC.

Enough blah, blah, blah, though.

Check out the samples below for a taste of what the BassLine 2 sounds like.

Other features:

In addition to the great-sounding 303 emulation, BassLIne 2 has a few other tricks up its sleeve, including:

• Standard or Analog-style tuning
• Three styles of filter: 24dB, 18dB (303) &18dB Pure
• A pattern analyzer that lets you read in audio bassline patterns and convert them to a BassLine 2 sequence.
• A massive pattern library

My favorite extra is the Random function, which offers several options for randomizing your sequences. Hit the Random options a couple of times and you’re sure to come up with something strange.

If I could change anything on the Bass Line 2, it would be to provide more options for taking the synths’ sounds beyond the capabilities of the original TB303. For example – it would be nice to have the option to increase the range for the filter cutoff, or to have other types of distortion.

In other words, I’d like to see AudioRealism worry less about making this a faithful recreation of the 303, and more about making it an Uber-303.

That said – AudioRealism promises a faithful 303 emulation, and it delivers. This is the best virtual TB303 yet.

It’s available for 95 Eur, for Windows and Mac, VST & AU.
