what is the best 303 emulation soft synth

[Electrictribe]

ok if i get some time over the weekend i will record the same pattern using all 3 and we can have a comparison test. Won't be till sunday at the earliest though.

You can do the same with midi patterns and varying velocity. But why bother? abl is the shit.

This is the abl. If abl isnt good enough for you, nothing will be.

wrong mate, you can't do the same with midi patterns and varying velocity

well i can't at any rate

believe me i tried for eight or so years and just got stiff acid lines

then worked with mik cree who can program 303 lines into the sequencer and realised that was the way to get slick slidin lines

eventually got into programmin the internal sequencer on audio realism bassline and all of a sudden slippin slidin acid was at my fingertips

yeah it's the sequencer really that does the trick

i just got that phosycon one now , it's not bad either

i use ABL for twisted slippy 303 lines and phoscyon for real barky staccato stuff.

2 great vst's imo

This is an interetsing site to compare 303 emulators give audio samples so you can see how close they are. still nothing compares to the original tho

The ABL is damn good if you use the right plug ins with it, but i do agree it loses it a little on the high resonance.

got to grips with the abl and the phoscyon now - just wondering wich plugins get the best results in your opinion - ta

can some explain how to 'work the internal sequencer' in abl2?

personall i dont use the distortion on abl2, ive found the it cuts away at the high res , so i use D16 devistator distortion.

ive never used a reall tb303 but i must amit that it does seem to sound better but then again it just be the way i use the abl2
