EUR 2.937,20 Compralo Subito Unsold, EUR 56,59 Spedizione Venditore: (667) 100%, Luogo in cui si trova l'oggetto: South Coast, Spedizione verso: Worldwide, Numero oggetto: 29 Rare vintage 1978 Roland RS-505 Paraphonic Analogue String Synthesiser in truly incredible.like new. condition with original ultra-rare fitted Roland case, original music stand and manual! This synth looks like it has just come out of it's packaging, been used for a month and put back again. Even the screw heads are shiny and like new! A truly amazing find! UK/Euro 220/240 volt power. Can be set for 110V too.
This is also an early one with the coveted SAD512 reticon BBD IC's inside! Original Japanese operation manual included! (together with a copy of the English one). Comes professionally serviced and calibrated for sale. No scratchy pots or leaking caps or anything else and importantly the entire keyboard contacts have been cleaned and serviced as these often double trigger with age etc. All features work fully and have been thoroughly checked, including the stereo outputs and all foot-switch operations.
All the sliders are lovely and smooth and all switches operate with a positive click in keeping with a synth in this incredible one-off condition. Sonically this is possibly one of the most flexible and beautiful sounding analogue string/bass synthesisers ever made, and I say that having owned most of them, including the coveted Arp Quadra(amazing in it's own right). I've often seen it written that these have the same strings as the legendary VP-330; not true.these are far superior to the string sound in that synth. The strings have a much thicker, complex tone and also the release is much more natural and smooth. Again I have owned both and used them extensively side by side.
Fat Freebass Fb383 Manual Transfer Case
The RS-505 also has a wonderful synthesizer section with that classic fat and squelchy Roland filter, then an incredible bass section(which to me rivals the Moog Taurus on pure power), then you add in those glorious strings!! Then on top you can apply the unusual quadruple BBD modulation effect.which has chorus, ensemble and flanger modes.all stereo.individually to each section.and so on.and you can see you have pretty powerful analogue instrument!
Further to that the RS-505 also features an external audio input so you run another synth(or whatever you want) through the Stereo quadruple-BBD Ensemble chorus/flanger! A performance control section to the left of the keyboard provides volume, tune, glide and pitch bender controls. Each of the sections has it's own output too so you can mix everything properly. The sound is just ridiculously organic and rich! As I said, this unit is in incredible condition. Truly amazing really considering it's near 40 year age!

TB-303 front panel Dates 1981-1984 Price £238 UK, $395 US Technical specifications monophonic Sawtooth and square wave none 18dB low pass resonant filter, non self oscillating Aftertouch No Velocity expression No memory 64 patterns, 7 songs, 1 track No internal effects. Input/output No The Roland TB-303 Bass Line is a with built-in manufactured by the. The TB-303 is a synthesizer, which means that it can only play one note at a time; it is; it uses a sawtooth and square wave oscillator; and it has a 24dB low pass resonant filter. The TB-303 is used by and to perform and program, as well as other rhythmic/melodic synthesizer motifs. Released from 1981 to 1984, it had a defining role in the development of contemporary, the TB-303 played a major role in the development of, influencing.
The 'squelchy' sound of the TB-303 was a key part of 's sound, the TB-303 is also commonly used in related genres such as and. In the 2010s, some DJs and record producers continue to use TB-303 units for their authentic tone and sound; as well, TB-303 basslines from vintage tracks have been for use in 2010s-era songs. As with any synthesizer, the TB-303 can be processed with to produce different sounds. Two simple overdriven patterns on the TB-303.
The second pattern has varying resonance to give a harsh screeching sound. Both patterns have gradual cutoff frequency. Problems playing these files?
The TB-303 has a single audio, which may be configured to produce either a or a, the square wave is derived from the sawtooth waveform using a simple, single-transistor waveshaping circuit. This produces a sound that is subtly different from the square waveform created by the dedicated hardware found in most, it also includes a simple, with a control only. A is also included, with -24 per attenuation, and controls for cutoff frequency, resonance, and envelope modulation parameters. It is a common misconception that the filter is a 3 pole 18 dB per octave design when in fact it is 4-pole 24 dB per octave. The TB-303 sequencer has some unique features that contribute to its characteristic sound, during the programming of a sequence, the user can determine whether a note should be accented, and whether it should employ, a smooth transition to the following note. The portamento circuitry employs a fixed slide time, meaning that whatever the interval between notes, the time taken to reach the correct pitch is always the same, the accent circuitry, as well as increasing the amplitude of a note, also emphasizes the EG filter's cutoff and resonance, resulting in a distinctive, hollow 'wow' sound at higher resonance settings.
The instrument also features a 'simple' step-time method for entering note data into the 16-step programmable sequencer, this was notoriously difficult to use, and would often result in entering a different sequence than the one that had been intended. Some users also take advantage of a low voltage, wherein patterns that are programmed in memory get completely scrambled if the batteries are removed for a time. An early record that used the TB-303 with the. Problems playing these files? ' by Scottish post-punk band, which reached #8 in the in February 1983, was the first UK hit to feature the synthesiser, though it was predated by the 1982 single '.
Another early use of a TB-303, especially in conjunction with a Roland drum machine, is now attributed to pioneering Indian musician 's Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat, an album of original electronic disco compositions recorded using the TB-303 and in 1982, pre-dating the sound of by at least half a decade, but forgotten in obscurity until his rediscovery in the early 21st century. It was in the mid- to late-1980s that and in found a use for the machine in the context of the newly developing genre.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, as new acid styles emerged, the TB-303 was often, producing a harsher liquid acid-like sound. Examples of this technique include 's 1987 ' (sometimes known as 'Acid Trax' which started acid house), 's 1992 EP 'Acperience' and Interlect 3000's 1993 EP 'Volcano'. Also utilized the TB-303 with a and for the seminal record 'On and On' (1984). In other instances the TB-303 was extremely distorted and processed, such as 's 1995 hit '. The ' sound is typically produced by playing a repeating note pattern on the TB-303, while altering the filter's, and. The TB-303's accent control modifies a note's volume, filter resonance, and envelope modulation, allowing further variations in.
A distortion effect, either by using a guitar or overdriving the input of an, is commonly used to give the TB-303 a denser, noisier timbre—as the resulting sound is much richer in. Popular pedals include pedals by Boss and pedals like the Grunge or Death Metal. The head designer of the TB-303, was also responsible for leading design of the; in 2011, listed the 1981 release of the TB-303 as one of the 50 key events in the history of.
Software emulation Rubberduck by d-lusion (now a free download ) is a bass synthesizer, roughly based on the TB-303, released for Windows 95 in 1996. In 1998, 's emulated the TB-303, and later sounds. Roland contacted Propellerhead to give the company an unofficial 'thumbs up' which Propellerhead considered as the Roland 'Seal of Approval', as of September 2005, support for ReBirth has been discontinued by Propellerhead software, and the software was available online as a free download until 2016. In April 2010, a new paid version of ReBirth was re-released as a paid app for the and.

Other notable softsynth versions include the TS-404 synthesizer found bundled in certain versions of, however it was removed in 2015 with the release of FL Studio 12. And The 'Bass Line' plugin from AudioRealism. It supports both the and standards. Flagship softsynth, as well as many other softsynths, contain filters modelled after that of the TB-303, allowing users to create their own realistic-sounding acid patches. On 19 October 2016, Image Line released a new software emulation of the TB-303, named Transistor Bass, this release was accompanied with a controversial video of the original TB-303 being destroyed with a circular saw, however this turned out to be a hoax, with the TB-303 actually turning out to be a Cyclone Analogical TT-303 BassBot, a commercial hardware clone of the original. Open source emulations include Freebirth, VST and the LB302 module for, a.
Hardware clones The original TB-303 became a staple for world traveling DJs, its compact size and tone suited both air travel and the DJ booth. The wear and tear of 200 gigs a year and travel caused some to commission custom CNC cases cut from aluminum. Electronic modifications included expanded memory, the use of lithium batteries to reduce weight and increase reliability, tonal modifications to increase envelope length, add distortion, and increase the lower bass range of filters. Heavy use in dusty and liquid hazard environments led to replacement of worn thirty-year-old switches with new sealed switches for higher reliability, the electronic music equivalent of a skilled luthier supplied these expensive modifications to a willing clientele in units called the 'Devilfish','The Borg' and 'Acidlab'. These customized TB-303s changed hands in some cases at over $3,000, the price of increasingly worn out TB-303 rose steadily with demand. High prices were paid for ones with cracked cases, or circuit boards damaged by the acid corrosion eating traces and wires, caused by old batteries left in stored units. By the middle of the 1990s, demand for the TB-303 surged within the scene, as there were never many TB-303s to begin with, many small companies cropped up and started to develop their own TB-303 hardware clones.
Many were rack designs, aimed at studios, not travelling DJs, this new wave of TB-303 clones began with a company called, who released their portable Bass Station keyboard in 1994. Many other TB-303 'clones' followed, including Future Retro's 777, Syntecno's TeeBee, 's, MAM MB33, Freebass FB-383, Future Retro's Revolution, Acidlab Bassline, Acidcode ML-303, Oakley TM3030, Analogue Solutions Trans-Bass-Xpress and Will Systems MAB-303. As the popularity of these new TB-303 clones grew, the original TB-303 manufacturer, finally took notice and released their own TB-303 'clone' in 1996, the Groovebox, despite Roland's efforts, their new '303 clone' was an entirely new product that had almost nothing to do with the original TB-303, with the exception of a few bass samples and the familiar interface design. The most obvious difference was the inclusion of an inexpensive digital synthesizer, rather than the analog circuitry of the TB-303. The MicroComposer is a / released by in 1983. Whilst not strictly a clone of the TB-303, it is closely associated, it is also similar to the synthesizer, featuring one with simultaneous saw and square/pulse-width waveforms and a resonant -24db filter.
Open source clones Influenced by pioneer TB-303 modifier Robin Whittle, Limor Fried, an MIT engineering graduate and a group of friends with a high level of skill in electronics and software began to study the TB-303. Taking Fatboy Slim's ' to heart by 2004 the group at ladyada.net began to produce a DIY kit that was very very close to the original sound and drew upon modern parts and a handful of hard to find parts. It is a deliberately hardware solution called the, using most of the original components in the synthesizer section for a very authentic sound. The sequencer section differs from the original TB-303, adding support for and interfaces as well as an alternate event entry interface with different operating systems, such as SOKKos, also open sourced and community written. Modifications of the original x0xb0x design inspired a number of designers who went on to careers making software and instruments and helped raise the profile of electrical engineering and home-based circuit design and pcb production generally among young talented individuals who were attracted to the idea of performing with instruments they had personally built. Community forums provided a nurturing environment online for those who wanted to make their own TB-303, for under $500 an individual now had access to a superior machine at the quarter of the price of a used TB-303 and the knowledge they gained in building it.

Emerging from the DIY kit movement was a modification by a California engineer named Brian Castro which led him to design secondary and replacement pcb kits, his x0xi0 kit adds a second tuneable oscillator, a noise source, a second ADSR, an AR for accent, FM and cross-modulation,momentary switches, extended range audio and extreme envelope ranges,sophisticated routing, distortion and overdrive. It locked together three types of synthesizers communication signals: modular cv & gate voltages, DIN sync timing clocks for TR-909 and TR-808 drum machines, and MIDI. In October 2015 Paul Barker of announced the as an attempt to make an authentic DIY replica and showed a working reversed engineered prototype. Current commercial clones In the fall of 2012, a Hong Kong-based TB-303 clone appeared which, unlike previous clones, looks and feels remarkably similar to an original TB-303. Cyclone Analogic's TT-303 Bass Bot replicates the original TB-303 circuit with modern surface-mount components while adding MIDI connectivity and replacing the original battery-backed RAM with flash memory.
Unlike RAM, flash memory does not require a battery to retain information while powered off; in the original TB-303, the backup battery tends to leak over time, causing corrosion. It does not support DIN sync; however, MIDI can be used instead. The TT-303 also includes the custom 'InstaDJ' firmware, which allows users to generate random patterns with seven different 'personalities'. Robin Whittle (designer of the Devilfish modification for the TB-303) is currently exploring modifications for the TT-303. In 2013, released the Volca Bass, which takes some style cues from the 303 but does not copy the original's form factor or sound generation circuitry, the Korg Volca Bass uses a different filter, and it lacks an accent control. It also features three oscillators, as compared to the 303's single oscillator.
In 2014, Roland released the TB-3 Touch Bassline synthesizer, a digital 're-imagination' (rather than a replication) of the 303, it features a redesigned interface and additional sounds alongside digital recreations of the original 303 sound set. In 2015, released the Avalon Bassline synthesizer, an expanded version of the original TB-303 using the original parts and layout; in addition to the usual controls,the Avalon includes a sub oscillator, an additional modulation envelope, and numerous other enhancements. It also includes a filter cartridge plugin system to swap in additional filters. In 2016, Roland introduced the TB-03, a module with a similar look and feel to the original 303, but powered by the digital sound engine of the TB-3, the module is part of Roland's Boutique lineup. This model was more faithful to the design and sound of the original than the MC303, and attempts to mimic the analog circuitry by implementing coded responses based on the original transistors in the TB-303.

Cons: I need a few more things & tracks Cost:? Wow, looking over the posts it's easy to see why the PC & Mac have opened up all sorts of recording possibilities. Just great for getting into this without spending a fortune. I'm probably too old fashioned for you guys.I still sometimes mix to 1/2' with or without Dolby SR, depending on the project. Other times the Masterlink does just fine. I like vintage stuff-have 7 Telefunken tube pre's along with Avalon 737's, although the Trident mic pres are pretty decent. 1) Setup/Platform: Trident 80B console with automation.

=) Maybe $3,000.00 in mainly all used recording gear. Qualitywise, probably quite dirty compared to what most of you are used to these days. We mainly record pretty stripped down rock music. Big, fat, loud drums and guitars. Pro's- all at our own pace. Decent quality recordings using our preferred methods and tools within our budget. Any recording we've done for anyone other than ourselves has been at no charge.
Very relaxed atmosphere in my tiny, unfinished, and difficult to work in basement. Con's- restricted (# of tracks, noise, quality) by some of our gear but that's part of the fun. The 'room' is cinder block and cement. Carpet on the floor, most walls as well as some fiberboard built walls. Open ceiling with insulation fully visible. Quite interesting to walk into.
I like to call it 'The Bunker'. My delimma: I have a bunch of licks that I want to store and send to family/friends/possible bandmates. I want to get them on my PC!!!

I should have a PODxt within 2wks. How do I record my music? Use the POD and connect it to the PC via USB? Use a mixer and run it through the line-in on the soundcard? Use the POD and run it into the mixer, then into the soundcard?
Buy an expensive Microphone and set it near the amp? I'm looking for simplicity, my wife uses the PC a lot so I don't want to disrupt too much. I want to be able to send that snazzy hook I just came up with to the PC and save it. The Boss RC-20 pedal has served me well, but I can't send or keep licks (permanently) with it. Any suggestions would really help me out. Can someone give me a quick explanation on how to set up a home recording studio on the computer.

I'm not an expert btw, but I do know this: Plugging the mic straight into yer comp using an adapter for the plug/jack WILL work, no matter what anyone here will tell you. Just give it a try, for all you know it'll sound good enough for your needs and taste. So don't go out and blow yer savings on a piece of high-end recording equipment just because it has a good reputation on this forum. Besides, a $2k preamp won't even sound remotely impressing if you put it between a $20 mic and a sound blaster card. That being said, using a decent mixer or mic pre will get you better results.
And maybe you know this, but a recording card with 24/96 resolution and decent a/d converters also makes a difference. If you think you do need a mixer/preamp and/or a good card, just do search or read thru the stickies here at the forum.
