x0xb0x

I built this x0xb0x a few months ago. The x0x is a great 303 emulation, made even better with improved software which gives the ability to actually understand how to program a bassline!
Big love to Limor and the crew at Ladyada.net for coming up with the x0x, it rocks!:-)

Mods include:-
VCF overdrive switch, resonance boost switch, increased ENV mod range, increased accent range, increased filter low-end.

Also:-
all flat LEDs of various colours, power switch, a different fascia (thanks to c0nsumer for making his .ai file available for editing!) and the SokkOS modified firmware.

Its not emulation, it's the real thing because they sourced all the original parts so it's the same as the original 303 for all intents and purposes.

@XcesMusic thank beelzebub!.....ive been trying to find a nice analogue acid....im tired of the simulation acid....too harsh....

[XcesMusic]

@JavaSpitLava you can buy an x0xb0x kit at some site, but I can't remember which one. I've seen already built ones go up on ebay for 400$-600$, they are way more easier to find than a TB-303

[JavaSpitLava]

what the price for this thing....and how hard is it to get?....the 303 is fucking impossible to get atm....its selling for like 2,000+ dollars.....INSANE!....but worth it in a way...

OMG! 5:20 How did you do this??

[kylescotese]

Awesome!

@tonttu303 Please, can you explain how to to this mods, especially the increases in ENV mod and Accent?

In mine does´t affect too much sound.

Thanks.

I don't actually own a X0x just yet so this information is based on what I have gathered.

Your going to want the standard TB303 layout, Filter, Resonance etc..., everything the original TB303 had, but the main addition that many x0xs tend to have is an increase of range on the features. It's usually a Filter, Env Mod, Resonance and Accent increase-end which gives you a greater range of editing that the 303 didn't have. Also you want MIDI fitted with In Out and Thru

@BedroomFromDublin11 You can usually get X0Xs for around 200 to 500 pounds depending on if they are pre-built, what modificatios they have and what design they are. They can be bought from the online manufactures shop (Mode Machines usually have some) or more likely, eBay for around the same price, usually pre-built. ;)

I actually prefer the way this sounds compared to the original TB-303, in terms of the 'classic acid' sounds. Fuck the puritan idiots, this sounds far more mature and serious than the original 303, even unmodded.
