Botchin Bach (TD-3 programming)

Post by modusjonens »

I recently acquired a Behringer TD-3, a knock-off of the venerable Roland TB303.

Here's my first attempt at some programming. Kind of weird to have a solo synth bass piece, but I can't think of a better way to learn to make the thing sound the way I'd like ;)

This is great fun! :) Did you record the TD-3 straight into the soundcard? There is a certain bassy, meaty quality to it, that reminds me of good monitors recorded in a room or even a small PA.

Thank you!

I connected the TD-3 to my laptop by way of a Line 6 POD HD500X.

I recorded directly into Ardour. I did put some room-sized reverb on the master bus -- glad to hear it was noticable.

There's also a very slow phaser (Calf Phaser) on the master bus -- mod rate turned way down to 0.01Hz.

It was all well matched and the meatiness must be the TD-3 itself then. Not being very interested in this per se, I only listened to one or two reviews/demos.
Thanks for sharing!

:lol: I think it would sound quite epic if someone build a Juno Reactor-style track on it!
