"just got the tiptop audio BD-909 a few hours ago. thought i'd check out how it sounds.

here's a link to tiptop's site

here's a higher quality soundcloud link to the audio in the youtube clip (more oomph)



nothing fancy w/this patch here. simple pattern from Intellijel uStep and a bit of modulation from a Wiard/Malekko envelator and i hit the accent now and then w/a different gate from a clock divider. in this case the doepfer A-160

there is no EQ or compression. it goes from the module's output to a jackie 1640 to a lynx aurora to logic. nothing was done in the box either. what you hear is from the module.

does it sound like a 909 BD? i don't know.. i don't really care.. i think it sounds good.. and if you are into 909 i'd bet it's pretty close. i've used 909s before and it's good enough to do that kind of thing (to my ears) and for all i know it's dead on.. but i haven't used a 909 in a while and as i said. i don't care.

the parameter ranges are pretty good. enough to get good variation and not get all squirrely or turn into a bass synth. it responds well to modulation and the overload is nice.
