First SBX10 I've ever seen :) Very rare sync box,people mostly used the SBX80.

[wrothermel]

They aren't so hard to find. Cheap too.

[VinceVega303]

have you tried just using the 303 and filter bank together without the dist pedal? it might sound a lot cleaner.

[wrothermel]

@Vince Yeah, of course I did, and it does, but it's just a matter of what kind of sound you're after. I personally most love the TB through a distortion pedal first. That's not to say that I don't love it cleanly, or cleanly through the FB. This is just my favorite type of sound out of it. Unfortunately I had to sell the whole lot for food a while back or there would be more of this here by now. :( Thanks for the comment

You know, after watching this again there's really only "acid" in this video from about 4:00 to 5:00

[Koen75NL]

Great sounds, this is awesome. Question, do you think the MT-2 distortion is a good distortion for use in house and techno to give it a raw industrial sound?

[wrothermel]

Hi Koen.... I personally like it very much. The two center knobs on it actually have an inner and outer ring so it actually has 6 knobs to tweak. Check out my video "Preparing for take-off" which is just me tweaking the tb, Mt-2, and filterbank just prior to this footage. In that you can hear exactly what the mt-2 is doing in this scenario. I find it to be very versatile and can get a great "acid" sound out of it. (But I'm no expert on distortion pedals for this purpose for sure!)

[wrothermel]

couldn't agree more. I gotta reapproach this soon...

[KaslarProductions]

I bet thats a dead 9v battery. cause that what I do with mine after I replace my dead pedal bats...... ^_^

[wrothermel]

ha! Actually it's a roland battery still in the wrapper. It came with the MT-2. Who uses that crap?

Funny!

[KaslarProductions]

LOL.....I have like 5 different distortion pedals and I hate all of them......There good for guiters (eww), but suck for synth.. I want a rack distortion unit.... too expensive though

[wrothermel]

I dig your 8-bit stuff.

Check out "preparing for take-off" if you want to see exactly what the MT-2 does to the sound of the TB. (It's just some footage of tweaking the sound prepping to record the stuff in this video.)

[KaslarProductions]

Thanks mate.....I've been recently venturing into the wonderful world of SID tuning.... Hopefully I will have some tracks done in the near future...

[wrothermel]

Thanks RamSkank! Checked out your stuff and it's dope! Cheers!

[wrothermel]
