via this auction"Roland TB-303 in very good condition which has recently been overhauled and modified with the Sequentix Midibass-II CPU allowing the user to control the synthesizer section and filter cutoff via midi (If you're unfamiliar with this modification please check out the Sequentix link above). The MIDIBass-II board also transmits the notes from the 303's internal sequencer via MIDI, allowing you to capture the unique quality of patterns created through the TB user-interface. Obviously you don't have to use the midi control aspect and when this is unplugged the synth works exact as it would had it not been modified. The MidiBass-II control is ideal for further editing or chaining patterns on a PC or hardware sequencer, pattern backup etc. The unit functions perfectly without double triggers or scratchy pots which is a very common issue in the original 'well-used' units. Overall the unit is in very good condition but does show some paint loss around the corners and edges as would be expected for saying it is over 25 years old. Otherwise, the machine is very well presented. The MidiBass modifications has not changed the actual synth voice of the machine and the glorious sound of the original unit has been fully preserved. The MidiBass CPU has only added further functionality allowing you to integrate the synth into your DAW of choice as most of us want these days."
