AudioPilz Built ReBirth FOR REAL and This Happened (Bad Gear)

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to another non - Bad Gear episode. I built ReBirth for real and this happened. Propellerhead Rebirth RB-338, the iconic 90s music production software and virtual groovebox was my first electronic musical instrument. Since then I had the dream of reconstructing the classic setup consisting of a Roland TR-808, a Roland TR-909, two Roland TB-303 and specific set of effects. Can we recreate the software workflow, are the famous vintage instruments as great as anybody is telling you and is all this worth the hassle?

Respect to the Rebirth scene which is alive and kicking, check out World of RB-338: https://www.youtube.com/@worldofrb-338

LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER did some awesome videos about his DIY midi controller for the original Rebirth running on old iMacs: [posted here]

Thanks to Philipp of Feedback Underground Studios for giving me access to his absurdly awesome collection. Serious requests are welcome to: fbugs@gmx.at"
