I like these cheap pedals quite a bit!

[@timburlingame5893]

Donner's Yellow Fall is my go to delay for both synth and bass guitar.

[@nojuanatall3281]

This is my first bass synth/sequencer. Personally I think it is pretty good. I can see how it is limited in some ways. Let me say that running this into my boss GT1B is a game changer. This synth doesn't have the best tone on its own but with a little help it can sound amazing.

[@AudioPilz]

Nice technique!!!

[@Tiger.Arcade]

We all secretly wanted to know how it sounded. Thank you for taking one for the team. 😂

[@AudioPilz]

Always a pleasure;)

[@SlightlyNasty]

Honestly, that oscillator sounds pretty solid, and the interface / sequencer has a lot going for it. I feel like if they'd made it into a more general subtractive bass machine they'd have something much more interesting, rather than being the johnny-come-lately to the 303 party. Add PWM for some thicker sounds, go for a more versatile filter voicing, I'd be into that.

[@AudioPilz]

Agreed!

[@danieklerr]

In 2009, I sent my Digitech DL-8 pedal to China, to a friend working at the newly-formed NUX company, with the hopes they could do something similar, but with deeper features. Specifically, I wanted to add various FX before the looper, so I could add layers of different types of sounds to a loop, and I wanted them to add MIDI. I had dreams of including this hybrid loop pedal to my product catalog. A few short weeks later, I get a prototype in the mail, loved it, and immediately ordered ten of them. A short while later, NUX released the first version of their Time Core loop pedal, without my requested MIDI interface. A short while after this, other companies began making pedals. I've attempted to do business with several of these, and to my knowledge Donner/Tomsline/Rowin/Andoer/Eno/Mooer at least share the same factory. JOYO/Harley Benton/Ammoon also share a different factory. It's nice to see these guys are entering the synth market, but of course I don't work at one of the huge manufacturers, lol.

[@danieklerr]

SIDE NOTE: Is there really a reason to buy this when the TD3 is readily available for 100 units?

[@AudioPilz]

Interesting! According to my research Mooer and Joyo are run by a wife/husband couple and share the same factory

[@danieklerr]

[@Royvdl]

I thought I'd love it too but man is that device complicated and annoying to use. The touch screen is probably the main reason I don't like it, I want to feel what I'm pressing, and it would be nice if the screen was a good touch screen

[@TransistorBased]

​@@RoyvdlI'm glad we're getting away from gimmicky touch screen instruments. Tactile buttons have always been better, and I'm not buying an instrument because it glows. I want it to be usable and sound decent, which the TD3 doesn't seem to be the best at

@@AudioPilz yes, and I will keep it in my gear-stock for having just an alternative gear with 303-like sounding. I like also that "Donner" build replicas like "Behringer". And I hope that this is not the last synthesizer that "Donner" shoots out in our world of synthesizer ;)

There's no doubt in my mind that you will make a Bad Gear episode on a Wednesday if a new 303 clone comes out. Additionally, you should do the Korg KR mini (korg rhythm) on the show too.

Great suggestion, thanks!

@@AudioPilz You're welcome.

The KR Mini is atrocious. Not only did they forever tarnish the KR legacy with tasteless sounds but they also released a drum machine without midi or sync/clock in this day and age 🤦🏽 Totally bad gear material. I’d love to see AudioPilz struggle to make it work with anything else. Will he take the challenge?

[@brianwilliams3621]

Hi, despite the Donner B1 going straight into "Bad Gear" I actually bought one! Straight out of the box and without even bothering to read the instructions manual I was writing patterns within minutes. I had a Roland TB-03 and a Behringer TD-3-MO-AM but sold them both as I found the pattern writing on both of these simply too complicated and frustrating. The pattern writing on the B1 is so much easier. Yes the B1 sounds different from the Roland TB-03 and Behringer TD-3 but actually pretty good. I will probably use it just as a sequencer to drive my other synths and if I want full on acid, then my MAM MB33 will be at the other end of the MIDI cable. Treat the B1 as a really simple (and cheap) sequencer with some added good sounds.

[@AudioPilz]

Super easy to use!!!

[@iKnowFast]

Can't wait for the VST version.

[@AudioPilz]

👍

[@surrealchemist]

Donner seems to ship out of the US when I ordered a couple things, so they must have a US office and distribution. I like how weird and cheap it is. I hope they keep making more synths

[@AudioPilz]

AFAIK there are no plans to do so in the near future

[@chedhead3278]

Thanks for the video. It's an interesting little thing which ticks some salient spec boxes ... and yet ... when, despite your best efforts, I remain unmoved by listening to it ... it's bad gear. Ah well ... next. Apologies for the ellipsis overload ... actually, I think I'll use that as a track name, part of my 'machine made - mumbo mambo - major regrets never end - digital donk' song cycle. Which might be a roundabout way of saying your videos always inspire, one way or another. And for that, dearest Florian, I thank you. Have yourself a lovely weekend and spend that 'At the first glance' money unwisely. I would.

5 analog synths is not so bad for a start;)

TB-3 is my cheap weapon of choice for TB303 like sounds. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it - the TB-3 with a TR-8 is such a great cost effective set up for some live jamming and fun.

[@udo7377]

*TD-3

[@fatkev1983]

@@udo7377 more faithful to the original, perhaps. Also, cheaper when new compared to the TB-3. But, I found the TB-3 was easier to use for live jams. Granted, the TB-3 requires software to access all the parameters, which let's it down.

[@Aristoper]

Sounds like somebody needs to add some reverb to their setup.

[@Engineeer]

@@fatkev1983 I agree that the TB-3 is amazingly easy to use live. Especially with the newer firmware. It's very handy to have waveform and effect stored with each pattern. Env Mod and Decay are actually available over the x/y pad. But you have to press "Env Mod" button for this mode. Yes, it's hidden and unintuitive, but it makes for some full hand movements, which are more visible to the audience than twisting knobs. Also, the tuning is supposed to be available while holding down the "Env Mod" button. I don't like to mess with the tuning. So, I did no t try it myself,though. Apparently, the "Env Mod" button is where the magic happens. 😃
