General
Quite a few lunar cycles ago and out of the blue, Behringer dropped a stunning recreation of the iconic TB-303: the TD-3. Simply put, the Behringer TD-3-MO is an improved version of the TB-303 and the TD-3 crammed into a single housing, where 'MO' stands for Modded Out. This analogue bass synth offers various fresh features and is perfectly cut out for Acid, Goa trance and similar styles.
What's New?
Known to always listen to their loyal followers, Behringer have loaded the TD-3-MO with long-coveted new features like a level-adjustable sub-oscillator for adding that all-important low-end rumble. In terms of sound design, various new features have been added as well and, while they're each relatively straightforward, they combine to have serious impact. All the way at the top, you'll find also new CV inputs for streamlined interaction with any external Eurorack gear, finishing the TD-3-MO and placing it right above both the TB-303 and the TD-3. And those brilliant smileys? They're the icing on the synthesis-cake.

Kwaliteit
Gezien de prijs is dit een uitstekende synth om dat acid geluid mee te maken. de TD-3-MO is van plastic, maar voor in de studio is dat prima. De knoppen werken goed en voelen robuust genoeg aan om er lekker mee te spelen. Ik heb hem nu een paar weken en alles werkt nog perfect.
Geluid
Het geluid wat dit dingetje kan produceren is heerlijk. Voor de purist zal het vast net niet zijn, maar het geluid is vol en scherp zoals je mag verwachten en wat mij betreft beter dan de ABL plugin die ik ook heb. De extra opties op de MO maken voor mij de extra prijs t.o.v. het origineel meer dan waard. Ik heb nog niet echt gespeeld met de extra modifiers, maar de extra mogelijkheden op het accent en glide zorgen voor veel meer ruimte voor het tunen van je geluid. De extra sub is prettig, maar ik merk dat ik die niet echt gebruik omdat daarmee je mix aan de onderkant nogal vol raakt, zeker als je een andere basslijn of lage (808)kick in je productie hebt zitten.
Gebruik
Sommige vinden het programmeren van patterns op een 303 nogal omslachtig, ik vind het perfect. Het dwingt je om even na te denken over wat je wilt. Het klinkt misschien gek, maar het zorgt echt voor een bewuste connectie met de synth voor mij. De variatieopties die je na het inspelen van de pattern hebt blijven me boeien en zorgen voor de nodige happy accidents.
Al met al kan ik deze versie van harte aanbevelen als toevoeging voor je studio. Qua prijs-kwaliteit is dit echt een no brainer als je ook maar enigszins interesse hebt in een 303 (kloon).

Monday 11 January 2016The image below recently turned up on the internet. Based on the text and the accompanying specifications, we assume that Casio is trying to lure us to their NAMM booth so they can present their latest keyboard/synthesizer: the MZ-X. This will likely remind keyboard enthusiasts of the MZ-2000, an old Casio model that, considering the words 'Reinvented, Reimagined, Reborn' is apparently about to be brought back to life. Rumour has it that two models will be released, the MZ-500 and the MZ-1000, but take that with a grain of salt; it's very possible that MZ-X is indeed the final name for this workstation.
