Is an MC303 more or less the same as a TB303?

used to have one of those. Its jsut a DJ fx unit really, with a shit mono synth built in

Its identical mate, honest!

Of course one point that has to be raised here is why it has to be a TB303. Plenty of boxes and software make a nice enough sound in the same vein, why not see what Acid Techno can become by playing with other things that keep the same kind of sound but move it on...

i think you'd better find a good place to hide once Xes reads that...

Acid is purple, clearly. Let that be the end of this sordid debate.

[acidsaturation]

If you want a TB303 then :hissyfit: ing buy one then, but you'll probably pay the 1200 squids...

You just said you got a 2 grand bonus

[xes]

yeah but I don't wanna blow it all on a little silver box. I want to save some for drink and drugs too!! :lol:

[Electrictribe]

i've got a mate who has bought every kind of emulator out there, constantly says a tb is too expensive. All in all he has spent probably double what a tb would have cost him. He brought round a number of boxes recently to have a comparison, didn't think any of them did the job much to his disappointment. Closest was the xoxox or whatever it is called, but just didn't sound right next to my tb playing same pattern, the accent and decay was off.

anyhow everyone knows acid is green

[rhythmtech]

anyone that thinks acid is green, purple or yellow is obviously not on strong enough drugs.. acid is clearly a deep red.

anyho xes, id go for an emulator or even a vst and spend my 2000 on other stuff like a top spec computer!!

learn the basics on software first then spend silly money on the toys.

if u already tried audiorealism and dont want to spend full whack for a TB, and realise now that an MC-303 is shite, and dont want a controller.....more drink and drugs money for you!
