not the 303 you'd hoped?

Interesting you say that, it's not exactly a workhorse synth ...
I'd like to get something a bit more standard soon too, like a nord micro..

>I really hate when the filters distort .. and that there is no volume
>setting for the three dco\ufffds ...


it's very temperamental .. sometimes i swap sounds and go "yikes! - this
sound bad!"...
however, effects make a big difference, and these days i find myself tuning
into a desirable SID sound, then just patching it through effects and
leaving it on that sound. If you assign the DCs to some setting you can a
wide range of sounds from the front...

The distortion *can* be nasty yes, and is uncontrollable..

>Interesting you say that, it's not exactly a workhorse synth ...

not to replace this SID tho .. no no no!

oh yes, i got nanoloop too  ( www.nanoloop.de ) from oli .. fantastic!! :)

>What is it exactly .. a soft synth or a real physical product?


It's a hard/softsynth experimental project. still in beta stages (testing)..

be the

Well yes, if you have no source of percussive sound (or a bunch of synths)
then a sampler is a great choice.
Modern samplers have synthesis capabilities, but don't expect a juno from 1
sample ;)
But you can indeed make all of your music on a sampler ..

Self oscillation of a single looped waveform can be an interesting approach
to make your sampler do synth sounds.

>Yup.. Know what you mean .. However I have made some really freaky
>ringmodulation sounds .. really cool , goes very well to ambient techno
stuff .


great.. got a preset of it? ...

>I have tried some filtering stuff on it , sending a drum loop
>thru it\ufffds filters really rocks =) ..


yes yes .. a great slapping lofi sound :) (i love the way it makes the
signal sound so crispy) :)

>Hmm .. so it can\ufffdt be changed at all then ?


well, if the chip distorts internally you get this ripping, cooking sound ..
which is great :) .. on some sound, however, it can be quite harsh and
undesirable...

there is nothing standard about a micro modular.
They are so open, it's not funny.

andrew

Yeah from what i've been reading on this list the sidstations seems 
a little bit 'quirky'. i suppose its a particular easthetic.
