TD-3-SR : A cheap weird synth

5 years ago

The TD-3 is a quite faithful clone, and that can be a bit underwhelming on some points:

- The 303 is not a very polyvalent synth. It is a great sound and I really like what it can add to a track, but keep in mind that it is not a very versatile synth sound-wise.

- You can't automate parameter changes via MIDI.

These are not drawbacks of the TD-3 itself, but of the original 303 aswell. The sound is faithful ,the signal is clean, and the sequencer is quirky as hell :)!

The hardware itself is definitely cheap: While the potentiometers have a fine feel overall, the plastic enclosure feels really light and hollow. It is not a problem for me as the unit will stand in a homestudio, but keep that in mind if you aim to travel and do live sets all around the world.
