I wish I could help you. I make music using software only (except for a Yamaha SY77)... |

Just a warning: I'm not a hardware buff and don't claim to be- I mainly research h/w to better understand the software equivalents which I use. The 303 is fortunately one of the instruments I've studied in depth :) I think most people would agree that it is fair to say, the 303 has an artificially high price (for what it does) due to its collectability. As I said in the other thread- they weren't thought of as that good till DJ Pierre and co. got twiddling, so not that many were made. This (comparative) rareness and the fact that it is such a clasic synth due to its part in acid music means that a lot of musicians like them for collectors pieces perhaps even more than their sounds. The fact it's often professional musicians bidding on them drives up the price higher... Unless you really are a "collector" I'd advise that your money would be better spent on a different synth- lots of more recent synths emulate the sounds of the 303 (as it's so popular) the way a lot of drum machines emulate the 808's trademark sounds. My advise would be to DL the RE-birth demo for your PC. Have a play and see if that's really what you want. You may decide a copy of re-birth is all you want. I'm not up on "modern" synths so if anyone wants to recommend a good current synth that emulates the 303 as part of its repetoire, please fire away. If you do just want the 303 sound, maybe you should consider something like the MB 33 made by MAM - very similair sounds, but only 1/4 of the price. |
