Roland TB-03

the perfect 303 clone

as a acid freak, who never had the original, this to me is the best clone.

soundwise supernice, and i love the interface, programming is easy compared to the OG or td-3

Proper easy acid machine

Great little acid machine!

Main thing its ORIGINAL!

I have Behringer TD3, but Rolands digital version sounds better and easier to programm with better features.

p.s internal speaker is a big joke. But you dont need it. Just in case.

Love it

Sounds amazing. Feels solid. Closest I'll get to the real thing, and worth every penny.

Classic Acid Sound

I am a lifelong fan of the TB303 sound. The original TB303 was out of reach for me, so for years I was enjoying Rebirth from Propellerheads. With this Boutique offering from Roland I can now enjoy this classic sound even with a set of batteries. I am absolutely delighted with the quality, playability and the addition of reverb/delay. A must have for every acidhead ;)

Everything works perfect, Very easy to handle and portable.

Everything is perfect and compact and being able to bring it anywhere is a great feature. The sounds are very powerfull as should be. Acid!

Little Acid Beast

Although somewhat different to the original with regard to output of sound... I use this beast of a machine with few guitar pedals and holy hell!! It's insane!

Built to last too. Only ONE thing I can find majorly wrong with this, I'm ok with it but if anyone (usually guys) want to use this machine the dials and buttons are pretty teeny if you have big hands you're going to struggle with playing this boutique model.

ACID

I use TB-03 to my home studio

it sounds definetly different from tb-3

the sound is come very close to tb-303

i love the idea of fx distortion and delay

it is portable works with 4 batteries also

has a small speaker but you can also listen from the headphones so it is good idea to get also a bag

the sound and the construction quality is good.

dont forget to buy also a mono mini jack cable for your mixer!!

Sounds good, works like a charm

Sounds like it should, although I have no other source to compare it to, it just sounds good. YOu will spend countless hours making acid and simply having a blast with this machine and at the price its a no-brainer. The on-board effects and midi implementation are also welcome.

I don't like the micro USB power and would have preferred a DC adapter in order to reduce humming but this also means that the device can be powered using a power bank which makes it very portable.

The build quality of the device is also great however I am a bit weary about the knobs which are a bit small and have some play however they are not too bad. Considering the price this is an excellent piece of kit.

I love it!

Nice crystal clean sound (I don't care if it's not analog). Great FX section (3 overdrives, digital delay, tape echo, reverb). Extremely simple sequencer workflow. Build quality is great (Virus B is top of my rating here). Top row encoders are the only disappointment, hard to grip because of their chisel tip shape.

It works as a 303

I couldn't afford the 2-3k it costs for an authentic Roland TB-303, so I settled for this instead. It has identical functionality and interface, so there's nothing amiss there. I personally like how it can be propped-up so that it faces the user more directly, which is handy in studios where there's little desk space and this gets place further away.

I have noticed though that it's not an identical copy of the TB-303 when it comes to sound. Listening to online comparisons there is a noticeable difference, one of which concerns the "accent" feature. Read up on that online if this concerns you, but for the difference in cost I certainly feel the TB-03 is worth it.
