Ryan Lunenfeld sent the following to AH. With some of the comments coming in on
this post, I thought it would be interesting to post his first impressions of the synth. I asked him if I could post it here and he gave me the thumbs up. Thanks Ryan!
"hey i just recieved an acidlab bassline, and having not really seen any reviews on here of it i thought i'd let my brain leak a little...
the construction of the unit is great, all metal, and very light. i was suprised how light. i think maybe the exact size of a tb303 ;] nice feeling knobs, no real resistance, which i like usually, but with the tweaking on this, no real need;]
on the sound, i think its the first 303ish type synth that actually has the square wave down the best. it's not 100 percent perfect, but the closest i've heard. and having the square wave my personal favorite, i'm happy with that ;]
the filter is great, and can really squeel.
the bass on this thing is great;] i haven't heard this much bass out of a synth in a while, amazing...
the sequencer is gerat too, i think it is rather hard to get to like a real 303, and this leads to very interesting sequences. due to thek nob to change notes, i make more around the same note sequences, cuz i get lazy, and i forget hwat i do, so it gets randomish heh;-]
also having everything just with switches makes things lots easier; ]
great synth, i dont know what else really to say about it, cept i wish there was a filter on it, and the outputs were quarter inch doh and that it could run on batteries...
but apart from that a great synth; ] it really seems like klaus makes these synths out of love and cares about them ; ]"
