Honeysmack LIVE Acid Techno at Music Room on 3.03 Day with TR-09, TB-03 and Volca Beats

video upload by Honeysmack

"This was a small intimate gig I did on 3.03 day at Music Room in Melbourne. Amazing beautiful small venue that is a bar with a record room and huge sound. DJs are at home here although live acts definitely not the norm here, but I am always up for bucking the trend. Being the holy day of 3.03, I wanted to do a live set that was totally ACID focused with a 303.

The additional technical challenge was to do this show with ultra minimal gear, no mixer, no power, no effects just the Roland TR-09 and TB-03 with the Korg Volca Beats, all daisy-chained together. The TR-09 was the master clock and audio passed from the Volca into the TB-03 then into the TR-09. All effects are on board, no additional processing or mixing or anything else! Just one small audio cable running into the PA. All boxes were running on battery power for even less cabling and ease of set-up. The entire space was less half a square metre!

The performance is totally improvised, unrehearsed without any additional processing or editing. No DJs or computers were harmed during this performance.

Big thanks to the Acid Safari, Bo, DJ Jnett and everyone at Music Room.

VEKT - Portable Drum Computer V.4

video upload by uszymyszy

"Hi! Here is v.4, I redesigned the enclosure to be more rugged, we have also a battery and speaker. Most of the errors are solved, the UI is quite cluttered yet and I make a lot of missclicks/wrong shortcuts but after some tweaks everything should go fluent.

The idea is to have a pocket version of Ableton workflow, simplified but easy enough to create sketches for further polishing in DAW. I plan to build several units for testers but is still a lot of work to do and I cannot guarantee anything at the moment. I will try to progress as much as possible to finish this in this year."

And from one year ago:

Vekt - Portable Drum Computer

video upload by uszymyszy

"I built a Pocket Operator alternative. It can now record and play internal synths. There are 4 engines:
- Bass (Roland TB-303 mod),
- Lead (8bit style),
- Braids (implementation of Mutable Instruments eurorack module),
- Wavetable (several waves mixed by knobs)

I hope the UI is self explanatory, it is focused on simplicity and uses Ableton-like mini session view to launch clips"

The first prototype was shown 3 years ago on reddit.

It looks like a Dirtywave M8 tracker, but is different in both build layout and function. From the creator:

"M8 is a stunnig device for complex projects, I plan to keep my Vekt operator more like pocket op where you can quickly create sketches/ideas and polish them later on DAW. And the main idea for me personally was to quickly create rhythmic sequences which I can use with my visualization app instead making them in DAW, this will speed up the process."

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."

WHY it is the Best Synth EVER

video upload by AudioPilz

"In this video we are going to talk about how a piece of Bad Gear turned into my favorite synthesizer, the reasons why I’m using this ugly design failure all the time, why the Roland TB-3 is massively underrated and how both total beginners and seasoned pros can benefit from what only SEEMS to be a UI nightmare and dumbed-down preset abomination trying to capitalize on the heritage of the famous Roland TB-303 . This is a redemption story of the infamous green synth .

Is this member of the Roland Aira range the best synthesizer for acid and can it keep up with an authentic 303 clone like Behringer TD-3 ? Best. Synth. Ever.

Abstrakt Avalon Filter Cartridge Demo: R:OTA, 2044, and SEM filters.

video upload by

"This is a quick demonstration of 3 of the available filter cartridges you can purchase and plug into an Avalon. These work alongside the internal 303 filter via a toggle switch. With this button pushed, it engages the filter cartridge. It expands upon the original TB-303 design and allows more tonal range and effects.

R:OTA = the Roland JP and SH series filters
2044 = The SSM filters from classic synths like the Prophet and Polysix
SEM = Oberheim SEM multimode filter

Ladder filter = based on the Moog filter (not shown) is also available

Lastly in the video, I show the FR button which toggles between a 6db filter at 70Hz and 30Hz."

"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."

Abstrakt Avalon MOD ENV sidechain tips and tricks

video upload by manmade madman

"The MOD ENV on the Avalon can be super useful as a sidechain for 4 on the floor music. In this use, it will duck the audio on the steps that its triggers.
The MOD ENV is a simple Attack/Decay envelope which you can use on the filter or VCA. You need to adjust the Attack/Decay according to the tempo, and you can get syncopated things going on which aren't possible on a standard Roland TB-303.
Near the end of the video, it can also become a "reverse" sound as it sweeps in slower than the normal attack."

"This is a classic Roland Synth from the 1980s. It's the original TB-303 with additional enhancing mods Devil Fish and Quicksilver.

This synth is in near-mint condition. It's probably the cleanest unit for sale you will find everywhere. It's in top shape for a 40-year-old piece.

This TB-303 fits the very desirable Devil Fish mod and Quicksilver mods (USB cable in the battery compartment). It was recently inspected and tested by Retro Gear Shop in Nashville, where they went over all functions and mods, and checked for any potential issues. It came back with a clean bill of health. I am attaching a Google Drive video with them operating it."
