Roland Aira TB3 Bass Synthesizer

[@namelesslight3303]

Best demo I've seen of this. Thorough! Thank you. Can't wait to play with mine once I get it :-)

[@DJARIG1]

This demo or tutorials is absolutely fantastic very very in depth of all that i have watched for this product. The way he explained the connectivity is absolutely great. NICE VIDEO!!! 18/01/2019

[@Madyetmellow]

DJ ARI-G indeed!. I watched this ages ago and this was and still is the best review/tutorial of the TB-3 on KZbin.

[@ju3772]

Best video I've seen on the TB-3 so far. Thanks for taking the time to post it.

[@andrewlecouteurbisson7217]

It actually has an 18dB/Oct filter just like the original TB-303. In fact the device (in so far as is currently possible) simulates the actual 303 circuitry, warts and all, in it's 303 patches.

[@fabiovsroque]

Why people don't smash the like button I don't know, you've made an awesome review. I subscribed, and I hope you produce more videos like this, congrats.

[@markgiddings9666]

2020 & still rocking !!! Just purchased & I'd saved ur vid ready to guide me through it - superb. Thank you

[@waynesilverman3048]

I bought mine from Dawson's they knocked 50 £ off luckily because it was on show room originally. I was gonna get a td3 behringer. So glad i choose this.do play elecro on yours?

[@waynesilverman3048]

Electro I meant

[@notalwaysavailable]

Wonderful demo. Bravo! And thank you!

[@Madyetmellow]

Probably my 4th time watching through this video. Made me purchase a TB-3 a few years ago so thanks for your great review. Some of those voices in the B and C bank are just 😱. Sounds great and a perfect partner for a TB-303 or TB-03.

[@wasntborntofollow]

[@PureAmbientDrone]

good review ... just ordered one today, thx for the info on this

[@adamelementofficial]

Good walkthrough Leonard. Is it possible to link a preset sound to a specific bank saved pattern so when flicking through patterns it changes the sound respectively?

[@relikvija]

I shit you not, with tr8 this thing is thing is fucking amazing

[@forrestcitygroove]

you know your stuff great video Bro.

[@Littlepeanut914]

Its sick. So excited about its user friendly ness. lug n play like a mug. And the sounds are vast vast vast. Only PPI, complaining are ppl who haven't used it. Its gnarly.

[@SuperWorshipguy]

[@denverm4x]

well done

[@johnnybagwash2456]

hi kosmic about 9 mins into video when u programmed the steps into the tb3 what are the steps your hand covered a few of the keys when you were programming it regards

[@guidelineuk]

Check out the up dates from roland : )

[@spidos1000]

Hi! I'm not very familiar with MIDI so you have to bare with me!I have a Maschine and was wandering if it is possible to connect this TB3 to the back of it? I don't want to record what the TB3 does I just want it to be in sync with what ever I'm doing on Maschine so I can play on the fly. If this isn't possible, how can I get these 303 sounds out of Komplete 9? It's doing my head in! 

[@piggdsbest333]

it is possible youtube deep house tb3 and mashine

[@deejannemeiurffnicht1791]

So far as convincing 303 noises go, when not using the gear in the above video, I use a little phone app (u can go into its folders via es file Explorer and copy paste noises via usb into laptop) for Android called CAUSTIC. the free version is fine, and th paid version is a steal. Use it like propelorheads reason. But, I am sure there is a pc version of caustic, and it shouldn't be too hard to get the info from its folders. It also has midi functionality. As an old 303 user, I can assure you caustics 303 emulator is brilliant. Hope that helped?

[@zachgressett7712]

Cool!!!

[@brianhogan5787]

Will midi be recognized from or to Roland loop station? thanks very much.

[@EEZAL]

Ok so I've kind of Over dosed on acid bass lines .. Is this capable of a nice WOB WHOMP or GROWL having the XY pad I'm sure it might do ?????

[@HazeAnderson]

12:54 entering into SH-101 territory. :)

[@johntiris312]

Hello,I have a problem connecting and syncing my tr8 with my tb3.i have connected both via midi ( midi out from tr8 to midi in to tb3 ) but for some reason tb3 is not playing along.although the step sequencer is lightning up,there is no sound coming out of it..if anyone could give me any idea i would be greatful.maybe it has something to do with the settings?

[@deejannemeiurffnicht1791]

Ah. You need midi OUT from tb3, and IN to tr8. Actual. I spent my first week recently, with them simply audio jacks out of either into mx1, and just set them.manually to same bpm, and to get the sequences where I wanted, just quickly stopped, then started the tr8 till I was happy. Much like a dj thru headphones, and it was rather nice. But try, as I mentioned, from tb3 midi OUT to midi IN of tr8 as that's the correct way. If that's doesn't work, get in.touch with the supplier, they should be happy to replace as Roland work really well with their supplier chain.

[@deejannemeiurffnicht1791]

P.S, as the tb3 will be the tr8 "slave", then the tb3 must go "out" to the tr8's "in". If u have midi in/out on your of, or a suitable offload sound and for your laptop, and have tractor, u can load all your aira gear into deck 1, and tractor will act as your clock, so it'll beat match you to whatever is on the other three decks etc.

[@deejannemeiurffnicht1791]

Dam, spellchecker on phone, I meant offboard soundcard for your laptop with midi in/out.....

[@Caveej]

Leonard. Boom digidy boom

[@guthyrenker]

Thanks for the review, I am $400 poorer now!

[@theodore8178]

Chemical breakbeat was a thing?

[@pyrox2518]

why wouldnt you use the headphone out then?

[@karl9411]

I have both the tb303 and this machine and i use this the most ,great emulator ,quicker and also a simple synth in addition .Must be lazy

[@theycallmejpj]

what do people prefer, the TB3 or the TB-03?

[@Omriy92]

so can you make your own patterns? can you save a pattern you made on the device ?

[@danjwalker]

Once you create a pattern, it's saved automatically. The TR-8 is the same too. You probably figured that out by now since you asked a month ago :)

[@Omriy92]

+Daniel Walker lol. yeah but thanks anyway

[@flowlee3656]

this or the tt-303?

[@juanky19]

+TheTurbocharged , TT-303! :)

[@HazeAnderson]

You guys act like the $3000 TT-303 is accessible. $3000? That's retarded.

[@opelsnest]

post-modern emo

[@robinleek]

bit tiring to listen to your voice with the basslines playing, but further it's well explained

[@CubeRepublic]

Gosh that's shite/

[@ashtonfox4738]

Good review... However, it's 2015: don't waste your money. You can now make sequenced saw waves for free. What a piss take!

[@NachtKind303]

+Ashton Fox let me guess ? Using an PC for it ??

[@deejannemeiurffnicht1791]

Always one know-it-all. I think ANYONE interested in this sort of hardware already it's that, and it, like me, would be years of using free software that has lead us to getting this hardware. Incidentally, it's good gear. Got a load of it just over a week.ago and I've designed some pretty banging acid-tech that's ready to roll already. Software wise, I absolutely LOVE Caustic. The version for Android is dynamite. All the functionality of propelorheads reason, with fantastic 303 emulators, and really tasty drum machine, and simple to pop your own sounds into the folders. And you can loads heaps onto it even on a phone without it getting too sluggish. Unbelievably good.

[@deejannemeiurffnicht1791]

Bloody spellchecker! I meant, anyone looking g I to this kind of gear will most likely be aware of existing and free software.... Over and oot!

[@williamgatesenson]

least interesting of the aira series by far. yea, i get that it's a 303 emulator but it wouldnt have been hard to expand the sound pallet way beyond. any of the other aira units could be stretched to other genres but the TB3 only seems good for a specific style of edm

[@piggdsbest333]

acid techno and trance,normal trance, goa and psytrance, deep and tech house, downtempo music, ambient music, and all the other acid electronic subgenres. It covers quite alot of genres actually, probably even more.

[@XHALE303]

Only if u are used to fabric patches which requires no skills, knowledge or creativity & no clue about programming synths & FX to make your own sounds so never learned to get out whats (not) in it those who have a clue, know it can be used for every electronic style there is those who say it cant, dont have a clue about synths or producing & therefore pointless to buy one anyway.

[@piggdsbest333]

you can play the tb3 with a midi keyboard and add effets and modulation and more to your sounds in your daw

[@berghainboi]

williamgatesenson EDM (LOL). Wake up, electronic dance music have existed more or less 30 years before the term "EDM".

[@deejannemeiurffnicht1791]

Got one a week and a half ago. It midis with most gear, and u can do what u want with it. However, the 303, in this format has been revived specific for "acid" freaks, so as such it does EXACTLY what it was designed for. And what it was designed for us EXACTLY what mist of us out here needed. The sound banks aren't massive, BUT they DO go beyond 303 sounds. And it is a good box. As the guy in the video says, it's a psychedelic producers dream.
