Like that Gaz. Reminded me of New Order - Confusion (pump panel reconstruction mix) towards the end. I'm a long way off sharing any videos of my noodling.

Ha cheers Good spot, was thinking about that and Aceperience 1 as well

Went on the train today so a couple of things. One kind of listenable the other not so much

I like the noisy one. Lots of fun ideas in there I might pinch.

Yeah, surely that was your entry for last month?!

TB-03, by a large margin

Can you elaborate a bit? I was tempted by the TB-03 then heard about the TB-3 and thought that it fitted my budget better but reviews make it out to be just as good but with more variety of voices

TB-3 is great, it's got the sound and is actually easier to program, but the 03 is much more true to the spirit of the original and the hardware layout lends itself to a different programming style.

Yeh I appreciate that it is not going to replace the 303, but that's why the 3 and 03 can now exist along side each other I guess. For me, I get 90% of the 303 sound plus more in a new package with new interesting features. Think I'm sold also the TR-8 want is STRONG and the lovely together.

.. also the TR-8 want is STRONG and the lovely together.

Indeed. I've got the whole Aira set, TR-8, TB-3, System-1 and the MX-1 mixer :-)

It's not a good a live instrument IMHO.

You've got nine knobs to muck around with while a pattern is playing vs the TB-3's four (I'm not counting volume). I particularly don't like that the FX assigned only has a mix parameter. It's great playing around with the TB-03's time and mix on the inbuilt reverb / delay. I also like you have distortion always available as well.

With the new step program mode on the TB-03 they're pretty much identical to write on now.

There is a touchscreen XY mode on the TB-3 that lets you fiddle around but when it's active you can't switch patterns quickly.

There is a lot of different voices coupled with a wider range of FX but to be honest I just want it to sound like a 303

I'm glad I got it though and picked it up cheap 2nd hand (the prices have dived a bit since the TB-03 came out) because it's great to have 2 of them and I can do the more expressive stuff on the 03.

All IMHO obv

Thanks for that. I'd not considered the lack of pattern swapping when using the X/Y pad. I still think it will be the choice for me, initially anyway. I suppose you could assign more knobs to a MIDI Controller if you want more control during a performance without clogging up the X/Y pad?

I think I'm pretty much decided on a TB-3 and TR-8 combo now.

[gravy]

Yep you can add a midi controller to access a shit load more realtime parameters

Downloads enabled (keep forgetting to do that)

It's a bit of a cheat, I've got the glitch 2 plugin and created random patterns for some of the track and added one for the main output too.

It's about 15 mins pissing around.

[kel]

Cheers, i'll have to take a look at that. Used stuff in the past that gives similar results but can't for the life of me remember what.

[gravy]

Using the glitch thing a little more sparingly

Had a 2nd pass on this just now and I'm starting to like it. Going to try and add some melodic variation next

[gravy]

Did some more on it and I think I'm done. I -really- enjoyed doing this. Not sure if it's as much fun to listen to

Glitch is a great plugin. See also Sugarbytes Turnado and pretty much anything by https://www.ineardisplay.com/

[gravy]

Fucking ada, had a try playing bass guitar. Got a blister and a well sloppy loop

Had some fun with a bit meausred use of the glitch plugin:

And did that Deadmau5 music production course. Which was odd. I didn't like it but learnt a few things. It lead me to use some of his approach to write some EDM type nonsense which I'm not overly keen on and didn't finish

Actually I did quite like the one I did on gadget
