Let's build the Roland TB-303 in VCV Rack

[@Ellotus13]

It's so clear how much you love this, every "Oh yeah" comes straight from the heart. Cheers!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Man, I'm having so much fun :)

[@jamessusbilla]

@@OmriCohen-Music Oh yeah =)

[@laurelojeda8926]

it's honestly my favorite part of these videos... nothing like loving what you do

[@kerwinfernandes9583]

Awesome, I really enjoyed this tutorial. It reminded me of the Rebirth days. God bless you! Thank you! 🙂🙏🏻❤

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@7177YT]

Oh man literally 4 modules to make a 303. ((: Also pretty handy phrase seq refresher! Cheers!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, thanks to the Bass module, it makes things really easy :)

[@charlie3k]

I recently started exploring modular synths and came across this channel! I have to say, I really love the content you put out there. It's really entertaining and fun to watch you, very educational. :) Keep on patching pls

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Hey, thank you so much!

[@johnchristopher32]

Sick video! Learning the makings of my favourite synthesizers has been a great learning tool

[@dpict1088]

Yes yes yes! stoermelder STRIP is THE utility I've been hoping to unearth ever since I started using VCV Rack 12 days ago. As a former(:)) Reason user for the past twelve days, I've been looking for an equivalent of the combinator. Tremendous! Learning VCV Rack with your help is tantamount to an upgrade for a sound enthusiast's brain. It is my belief that you have a very bright future and will play a part in the bright futures of others. Slàinte

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh wow, thank you so much! And yes, the Stoermelder collection is an important one to have. Cheers!

[@CinematicLaboratory]

Acid! Really happy to see you're still safe and sound!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks man!

[@SternLX]

Nice. I just recently used that KNOCK module for making an 808 clone in VCV Rack 2. pretty strait forward.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Totally, Knock is pretty impressive and easy to use.

[@stefvb2032]

Lovin’ your enthousiasme and the way of explaining ! I’m a huge fan !

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you so much!

[@aaronella96]

very cool! already loved your dfam patch:)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, it's a fun series :)

[@oiartsun]

So simple, and yet I gotta try it! My inner Luke Vibert needs to come out and play...

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

[@MisterMajister]

Amazing video! I set this up with my keystep pro, and it was a blast to play!! Thanks for sharing

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh nice! Cheers!

[@neonblack211]

all your videos are so amazing I just want to thank you for all your work

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I appreciate it, thank you!

[@jonbellaudio]

Awesome vid as always! Super useful and patch sounds great. Thank you! 🙂

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers! Have a look at the new version with the PatchMaster interface :) patchstorage.com/lets-build-the-roland-tb-303-in-vcv-rack/

[@jonbellaudio]

@@OmriCohen-Music ooooh!! Hadn't seen that. Will check it out. Thanks again 👍

[@couchcamperTM]

great stuff Omri ! now the 808 and 909 xD

[@DennisDJSaklak]

I recommend checking Hora Sequencers :D

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks!

[@jthorpe4droid]

Very cool idea, and great to see more stuff a little like this.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much!

[@mrz80]

You're having WAY too much fun with this stuff! :D There towards the end, around 12 or 13 min, you started drifting into Pink Floyd's "On The Run." Cool.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, fun times indeed :)

[@chillismith71]

Only a beginner so your videos are very useful :)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad to hear that!

[@breakup66]

Another excellent tutorial. Thanks.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you!

[@aidasbui2386]

Found out about vcv rack. This is amazing!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh yeah!

[@adrenocromox]

excelent tutorial, thanks

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cassettegirl7037]

great content, would love to see one for the MS10/MS20

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks! And yes, that's a nice idea!

[@JukeFPSB]

great vid :) korg monologue would be really cool !

[@OmriCohen-Music]

That's a nice idea, thanks :)

[@dimensial9144]

GREAT TUTORIAL. MY FRIEND HOW CAN I WRITE IN BLANK MODULES ??

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks! You mean the vertical ones? You just have to click on them.

[@theycallmefilip]

Great video, Omri! Your channel is priceless. One question, maybe for you, maybe for whoever is reading: is there any way to use rtpMIDI (windows implementation of Network MIDI) as MIDI inputs in VCV? I have a really great iPad multitrack sequencer (Xequence, look it up) and I'd love to use it in VCV. Once again, great content, as usual!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Hey, thank you! Well, I'm not so sure actually, I never tried anything like this. I'm pretty sure though that there are special connectors for iPad that will let you send Midi via USB.

[@gerarddaurella9471]

Simply amazing and understandable, thanks!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad it was helpful!

[@BeatMax2023]

Nice and easy to follow! :)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you!

[@FlowFormMobileMusic]

Oh man, you are best!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@WARDISWARD]

A 16th gate step on a real 303 is actually a '32nd gate on' + '32nd rest' =16th gate ( when not sliding ) Not just a full16th gate on

[@rmanpojo8485]

Fine patch. Omri how did you make the blanco panels with Text? Thanks for the video.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks! Yeah, those are the vertical text modules from Submarine.

[@stevebaker2896]

Hey Omri - great video!. Just an FYI your patch and strip files link to the "let's build the 0-coast" files, not the 303 files.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

That's so weird... The one in the description is ok, but not the one in the comments, which is actually the same because I just copied it... Anyway, it's fixed now :) Thanks!

[@EwenBates]

Nice, thanks as always.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you, Ewen!

[@GeorgCarlson]

clever! and sounds rather very close to original

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, it was a fun one :)

[@SashaYokey]

Nice sound! Thank you!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much!

[@mrzedgar]

thanks

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@marcoose777]

Cheers Omri, I've tried this exercise a few times too, the character is always a little different but nice all the same. You can also get a pretty good hardware recreation now from behringer, super cheap ... PS did you forget to add a distortion?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, it can go in many different ways. About the distortion, the original 303 didn't have distortion on it so I didn't add one, but it's very easy to to do I guess.

[@marcoose777]

@@OmriCohen-Music and I did ;) .. if anyone is interested I found XFX Grunge and Flame (Rodent model) were best for the classic higher state sound

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Nice!

[@berttoulet]

verry nice, can you maybe reacreat a Lyra 8 from Soma that would be really nice.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh man, I would love to build it, but I guess that a big part of it are the touch plates. They're an integral part of the sound.

[@luzdocaminhante]

Very entretainment, tk u.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@dreamdealer]

that was ace!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@basstradamus1]

Kudos for sharing, but as an owner of 303 I must say that it sounds much much different thant your setup in VCV(much better tbh). I've tried to match sound using ladder filters and saturation modules but no luck. While I was able to reproduce exact sound for single position of reso and cutoff knobs, i could not get it setup as a whole. Therefore I'd like to challenge you to get TB303 clone in VCV using payed or free modules, doesn't matter. Will you accept this challenge?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Well, these videos of building synths is more about learning and experimenting with how the synths work rather than replicating the sound. I don't think I can get the exact sound of a 303...

[@basstradamus1]

@@OmriCohen-MusicI know we can't get clone here, but would be extremely interesting to go thru attempt of getting at least similar sound. Wdyt?

[@zkx40]

haw yess !

[@buzz2166]

Oh yeah.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@FreedomFighter2002]

OOHHH YEAAH... OOHHH MAN...

[@benjaminmarin1407]

Please do Neutron

[@gabsauvage]

In addition to it, i would add Punch from Vult as comp/drive, it really gives all the "analog" beef that the patch lacks otherwise :)

[@gabsauvage]

awesome tut!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks!

[@swaggobamboo]

how i'll make my new track: first step - recreate the 303 in rack second step - sample your oh yeas and sequence them

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Sweet! Let me know if you have something ready :)

[@honeysucklecat]

Let’s not and say we did! Ha ha ha ha ha. Just being a dork.

[@neonblack211]

""very nice"" :P
