Very tasty 303. Do you actually have an old nanoverb? Haven't seen one in years? Cool track!

thanks for the comment! yeah, old 18bit nanoverb, amazing machine, love it.

Yes, very cool.

Love the beat that the kick drum comes in.  Really messes with my head on where the 1 is.  Killer stuff!

Love how the sound is so balanced again ... The contrast between the high synth line and that bass is awesome

Damn this track is the bomb.
I meant to ask btw, what 303 do you have? original? Or a clone?

original. bought it second hand, long time ago.
what clones do you use/recommend?
want a TB-3, the x/y programming seems to be worth a try.

OOOH lucky!! Treasure it much.

I have the first Cyclone TT-303, I really really love it, so much I might even consider trying the shitty looking new version if the metal inside is the same as mine even though it looks and feels like absolute crap. New one has SWING which I thought was an interesting addition to the x0x workflow.

As for other clones, there's two camps, the real analog clone and the analog modelling emulation. As far as emulation goes, the TB-03 seems pretty good, kind of weak on the low end but very accurate on the high end (more than my TT), but TB3 always looked weird, unnatural and seemed like it didn't sound as good but what do I know.

If you want to go analog like yours, the best option nowadays seems to be getting the RE-303 replica. It's not that bad a price and allegedly a 1:1 copy of the 303 (all clones made some changes here and there when for example they changed all components to surface mount)
