Not likely. Are you looking to drive headphones with it? Monosynths usually output on a TS (mono) jack.
Hah, yeah I thought about this too. How the knobs are layed out seems to be sort of performance orientaded (?). The knobs tending to get the most active tweakage are the biggest on the outsides, left is source, right is filtering.
Also I definitely am curious about some more softer basse tones!
Hopefully some more demos are inbound
I’m not super into acid boxes but I am super into bandpass filters.
Is there a way to shorten the decay at all, though?
I’m digging this a lot!
Yeah I am pretty interested in it too for some of its more interesting looking features… I also just noticed it has no master volume? it does have a shift button though so maybe some parameters are a layer deep.
^ this I expect.
I have the acidbox III and it’s very ergonomic/playable.
If you guys want more demos just look up their normal bassline module which is in the techno system!
~Super stoked for this one tho as I already own the acidbox Mkiii and run chiptune synths into it . Drive is good on the acidbox but looking for that distortion and FM amount !
The slide gets very 303 too but as I quote from the homie KODEK @ ericasynths
- “THIS AIN’T NO 303!”
Easiest way to get that Erica synths dirty bass sound without investing in a module rig
So no decay parameter whatsoever, huh?
Yeah, no amp envelope decay parameter…btw what’s the vca env and the env/cv lvl knobs do?
With vca env down we get a drone?
The description says:
- Independent amplitude, filter cutoff and pitch envelopes
There’s still no manual online on their website…
If it’s a 303 then I suspect most would buy the td3 for 1/4 the price so it’s worth pushing this as something unique.
It sounded fine but there’s a lot of competition for bass/mono modules
Just wait for it to come out or for kodek to make more video demos or use it in his setup I think that’s where this thing will shine , a friend if mine has the bassline module and kodek uses it a lot in his instagram videos so I have full faith that this is the next desktop bassline synth for me because I already know what I’ll be using it for and what it’s capable of I’ll probably be using distortion on it a lot and the FM amount and the unison !
This thing does look good if not to overly expensive could consider getting it
NEW DEMO out from kodek on his IG!
first synth ive ever pre-ordered. seems like exactly what i wanted from a tb 303 but never got. excited!
I like
Judging by the demos, specs, design and build quality the Erica Synths DB-01 and the Behringer TD-3 are like chalk and cheese. They are in different leagues and aimed at different markets so it’s not really a fair comparison. If you’re looking for a dirt cheap 303 clone, you might choose the TD-3. If you’re looking for something with bags of character and built like a tank, you might be better off with the DB-01.
Both are capable of making acid basslines but I think the similarities end there.
guess this one was on the ericasynths IG too !
