"UVI introduces UVX-3P, a superb instrument at an outstanding price, $79 (introductory price -- instead of $99). Inspired by the Roland JX-3P.

In 1983, Roland introduced one of the first affordable analog synths, the JX-3P. The JX-3P signaled a shift away from control dense synths like the JUNO and JUPITER series for a less intimidating, more entry-level aesthetic aimed at players who wanted the Roland sound without being distracted by a slew of controls.

That said the JX-3P was in no way technically inferior, offering many of the same components as its more expensive siblings‚ it even boasted dual DCO's per-voice compared to a single in the JUNO series making it somewhat of a sleeper powerhouse.

Not as pervasive as the JUNO series, the JX-3P was still a very capable and expressive instrument used by many well known pop acts such as Stevie Nicks, Vince Clark and The Cure as well as electronica pioneers Orbital and The Future Sound of London.

UVX-3P was developed with the same care and thoroughness as our other Vintage series instruments. A JX-3P was fully restored to factory spec, programmed by members of our sound design team and deeply multi-sampled, capturing samples both dry and with the built-in analog chorus enabled. Great care was taken to capture a wide range of the sonic capabilities of this synth, giving you 160+ presets in all.

Explore the included sounds or design your own patches from scratch through an immaculately prepared UI. Take your sound design even further with the wide range of effects available in the industry leading UVI Engine.

COMPATIBILITY

With the free UVI Workstation 2.0.9 (required version), UVX-3P can work:
• as a stand-alone instrument, compatible with Mac & PC
• as a VST, AudioUnit, RTAS and MAS plug-in.

With MachFive 3 -- make the most of all editing features included!

TT-303 clone vs. real TB-303 & First Impressions by Computer Controlled


Top demo is the TB-303. Bottom is the TT-303 vs. TB-303. Pay attention to the accents.



"first 16 bars of TT-303 clone.
after that 16 bars of TB-303.
after that 16 bars of BOTH playing at the SAME time paned L/R .
after that it's TT-303 and TB-303 back and forth to show the difference in sound.

i matched the settings and turned only cut off & resonance in exactly the same way on both machines. the pattern is programmed same way on both machines.

NO EFX is used, no comp, no eq, no reverb, no distortion.
just pure sound directly in the line in of the a2d."

There's some discussion on the AH that the accent between the two is slightly different.  If you listen to 3:24 on you'll hear that the TT-303 doesn't quiet get that classic TB-303 quick accented filter sweep.  Could be the settings?  If anyone has a TT-303 and get that sound feel free to comment.  I'll follow-up with a new post if I hear anything.

And some first impressions by Computer Controlled:

"Just got my TT-303 earlier this afternoon. After a few hours of playing with it, here are my observations.

Build Quality:
Its made of lighter weight plastic than the TB is. So it feels slightly cheaper. With batteries in it, it's lighter than the TB.
It has a glossy finish, as opposed to the TB's matte finish. I like the matte finish much better.
The switches have almost no throw to them. This takes a bit of getting used to.
The knobs do rub against the case, but this doesn't bother me at all.
