303 Day 2025 - Making a pattern with the Xoxbox

video upload by Stazma

"Again an anti-purist celebration of a classic Roland machine: I'll celebrate #303day with you today with the first clone of the classic silver box, the Xoxbox.

I'll show you how to program a pattern with it and how to jam with a drum machine via midi while in pattern edit mode, so you can keep playing around with the bassline."

Metasonix Penile Amputator vs. X0XB0X

video upload by fishjaco

"An 'uncut' 17 min take of messing around with the new Metasonix box for you to suffer through. Sorry not sorry. XOXO"

via Metasonix

"What is it? It’s a bad thing. Tube distortion pushed too damn far.

It’s the SMALLEST product we have ever made. Shirt pocket size. Inside is a preamp with feedback controls, using two 5702 subminiature pentodes.They are real Raytheon military surplus from the 1980s, not Soviet leftovers. The quality is aces.

ONE knob. The knob controls the feedback and gain. Fully CCW is off. Turn it up about 10% and you get increasingly LOUD signal, sliding into heavy tube distortion. Keep going up and it bursts into VERY LOUD oscillation. That’s the “feature”.

The switch is the other “feature”. It applies feedback to the suppressor grid of the second tube. What does that mean? We don’t know, we’ve never done this before and neither has anyone else. It is “unique” but you get to decide if it is useful or not.

There is a CV input on the front, it basically turns the Amputator into a really awful voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA). Ideally you shouod put at least 0-10 volts into this input. Can’t damage anything because it’s an all-tube circuit and there are no transistors or chips. The output is NOT able to drive “any load” so only feed it into a HIGH impedance unbalanced input.

It’s in a transparent polycarbonate enclosure because we STILL get stupid attacks from fools claiming that there are either no tubes in our products, or else the tubes do nothing and it’s all done with a “ten cent chip”. Fuck you, buttboys.

Here’s the damn photo. No, it does not have a 'bypass switch'. It’s on all the time because you deserve it.

Power required is 12 volts dc, 2.1mm barrel plug, center positive. 700 milliamps on startup and 250 milliamps in normal operation. NOTE: the standard version includes an AC power adapter for 100v-120v countries ONLY. If you are in a 220v-240v country, a “universal” power adapter is available for $20 more. Sorry kids: inflation and supply problems.

Everything sucks. That’s why each Amputator has different offensive stickers on it.

Video demos with drum machines: one, two.

I would put insults of guitar players here, but it’s pointless, they won’t read it. Some of them can’t read at all. Did I ever tell you about my ongoing battle with the IRS over my 2023 estimated tax payments? It’s an ugly little story and most people don’t believe the IRS is that incompetent. Well, they are.

Size: no idea. Small. Weight: a few ounces.

Any more stupid questions?"

VG LINE TBX3Q3 - Acid Machine

video upload by VG-Line

"VG-Line TBX-3Q3 is a x0xb0x designed and crafted in Russia by Vyacheslav Grigoriev.
The x0xb0x is a complete clone of the legendary analog bass synthesizer, Roland TB-303, with a new, more powerful sequencer. This synthesizer, which led to the birth of the whole ACID subgenre of the techno music, has many implementations, but not all of them are 100% clones including identical analog part schematic and component set. Fortunately, The VG-Line TBX-3Q3 is one of them: a full clone, which uses even the same NOS transistor couples.The primary difference of VG-Line x0xb0xes is the use of specially picked transistors with β400 as were used in the original model by Roland. Only the 5th part from a 1000pcs batch can pass for the production of VG-Line unit."

DT 303 vs Xoxbox

video upload by Dtronicsmusic

"Basic demo of the Dtronics DT-303 Distortion for the TB-303 / RE-303 / XoXbox"

DT 303 vs Dinsync RE 303


"The Dtronics DT-303 is a distortion that fits perfect with a Roland TB-303 or clone. Giving it unique sound to your acid music.

he Dtronics DT-303 is not your ordinary distortion, It is not a clone or copy.
It gives you 3 blends that you can adjust and filter. Each of the 3 settings have minor changes in the frequency spectrum. The distortion knop allows you to spice things up from minor to overrated distortion. Use the filter knob to suppress those high frequencies. A volume knob is added to adjust the output level to your needs. A bypass knop allows you to switch back to the original sound quickly.
The DT-303 was designed to fit perfect next to your TB-303 or RE-303. With the connections at the back you will have no spaghetti wires hanging over your gear."

"Going over my whole setup briefly. This is probably the most detailed studio tour/setup description I'll do unless I start a patreon or something and need extra videos. I don't mention a lot of the random gear like outboard compressors, EQs, etc just the things I'm most commonly using in my videos. If you have questions feel free to ask in the comments but I won't be writing very long replies so try to keep the questions simple."

Messing Around with Leads on Analog Synths

"Just layering a few monosynths and attempting to get some leads off. Holding the camera was a bad idea for this as it resulted in multiple playing errors.

Synths used were Nord Wave, Moog Source, Behringer 2600, Studio Electronics Boomstar, Behringer Pro-1, and a Xoxbox. Akai MPC-X does the drums along with a Simmons SDS-V."
