Dinsync RE-303

"As Dinsync states, 'it's not a clone, it's a replica' (hence the RE in RE-303).
It's a 1:1 reproduction of the original TB-303 pcbs, all the components are the same as the exception of:
- the BA662 OTA, used in the amplifier section of the synth. It has been replaced by a clone that has no notable sound difference, you can however get rid of the clicky enveloppe some 303s has with a trimmer, or leave it like this.
- the microcontroller and firmware that goes with it. It's not possible to directly "copy" the original firmware, so Sonic Potions (also known for the LXR, a DIY digital drummachine) reversed engineered the original uC to make a new one and add some more features like:
- Full MIDI IO
- Live recording over the internal keyboard and MIDI up to 8 bars
- Realtime tweaking of accent, slide and transpose
- Random pattern generator (that can be scaled to minor/major)
- Chaselight
- All functions available while the sequencer is running
- Data storage on a modern FRAM memory
This unit has been built, calibrated and tested in July 2017 and has been waiting in a box for it's customer who finally never bought it, so it only has been used for test actually. I've upgraded the microcontroller with the latest firmware (v0.92a), it can easily be done by using MIDI sysex.
The synth is housed in an aluminium case made by Substyler. It comes with a BOSS PSA230S power supply as recommanded by DinSync, so it's a 220V euro plug. If you need a 110V PSU let me know, I'll take this one off the total price and will link you to a 110V equivalent (PSA120S should work). The power supply is really important and needs to be well regulated."

"It has a blue LC-display, fitting to the blue casing, a power switch and a connection for Kensington lock.
The casing has 2 different materials: The main is translucent blue, the sideparts and the display protection are light blue transparent.
There is installed the YAM firmware which includes better sound and more possibilities for sound designing."

Technosaurus Microcon II Analog Synthesizer Module w/ Original Box
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"The Microcon is a modern-day little analog monophonic synthesizer module emulating the simple design and sound of classic Roland TB-303 and SH-101 synths. They are made by Technosaurus, a Swiss company best known for their high-end Selector modular synths. It is handmade using the same discrete circuits found in its bigger brothers.
The Microcon is a totally analog table-top synth module that's slightly smaller than the original TB-303. It has one main oscillator capable of either sawtooth or square waveforms, just like the TB-303. The addition of a sub-oscillator is more like SH-101, which can help beef up your bass sounds. The analog lowpass filter is switchable as either 2-pole (12dB/oct) or 4-pole (24dB/oct), which is better than the TB-303 or SH-101 offered. The LFO can modulate the filter cutoff frequency with either triangle or square wave and the VCO can be modulated by square or triangle waves. Simple attack and decay envelope controls and a Glide effect round out this fairly simple to use and highly affordable 303 clone. The Microcon only uses CV and Gate for being controlled externally.
The Microcon II adds MIDI, making this cool little mono-synth available to the masses! The Microcon II has all of the features of the original, but adds MIDI IN for performance and control of parameters such as accent, cutoff frequency and glide. Also new are a filter input to process external signal sources, CV/Gate outputs added, and the Microcon II can be used as a midi to CV converter for other CV/GATE gear."
