this is soo cool, i love that acid roland-303 sound.

love it!

Just plumbed in my new (to me) microbrute. Jomox and Miami on drums, Fr Revo, and TT303 as well as a JDXI.

New track with a massive nod to 90's Acid Techno AND Cannibal Corpse. Using Elektron Rytm and a Avalon Bassline

I like the hand movements sometimes more than the music. Some of these cats..... you'd think they were operating a nuclear reactor

did this for a friend a while back - acid mix of N-Joi's Malfunction -
no hardware this time, used rebirth for this !

Here's a fun one. TT-303, RZ-1 and R8M. Distortion is SE-70.

N-joi! Weren't they from Ayr or something?

You're the man Decoder with soldering iron! That Yocto will look good next to the re303. You thought of going into business as GS builder ?

Nice mix! Big njoi fan back in the day lol. Bit of a renaissance going on GS lately with this and the FSOL synth thread. Nice one ... as we used to say

They were from down south but would have played clubs and raves round about Ayr in the early 90's - Hanger 13, The Metro, Technodrome, Streetrave etc...

might be interesting to some of you.. dinsync started a competition where the winner gets a RE-303.. Just make a track with a given pattern and share it in this post:

good luck acid crew

here is my submission, just 606 and 303

I'd enter but I deleted my Facebook account 8 years ago...

oh, definitely. quite easily. i could also chop it up and arrange it however i'd like as it's all tempo sync'd to the grid in Ableton. this was actually in the back of my mind as i was recording the other take, which is why it's so long. anything i didn't like, or any flawed sections, could be removed. i could arrange it how i want to form an outline of the track, and build on it from there. either way, it's just as easy to route the audio from each channel to its own track to record each element separately, this is what i should always be doing instead of just recording the Master output.

i guess i just don't like the beat that much to begin with. the kick that's landing on step 8 (i think?) and that delay on the snare just throw the whole thing off-kilter for me. i guess i was exaggerating saying that i was "really bummed" about it, i can always redo it at any time (i actually saved this project instead of just trashing it). ... it's just that it reminded me of the box full of cassette recordings from my first 5-10 years that are pretty much useless because of things like this. some cool ideas in there, but most everything suffers from this same problem. i wish i had thought to record single passes from each machine all locked to the same tempo, though who knows if i might have had problems with slight tempo fluctuations if i tried chopping it up later.

i remember my imagination running wild with the possibilities of multi-tracking when you got that (Fostex? Tascam?) HD recorder 15+ years ago. i ended up getting an Akai DPS-12i a couple years later and barely used it, i mainly just kept recording quick little "live" jams to cassette or CD (had standalone Pioneer recorder/burner). pains me listening to most of that stuff now, i could have done so much with that Akai.

That was it - I remember them from the cheesy posters splattered all over the west coast!

I am ashamed to say I went to the Metro circa 1990 for 6 months!

Sold. I see you got an Acid 8 there and a Roland A01 I think? I know nothing about this stuff. I have a sub 37 and a Toraiz, but I'm thinking of getting into this sort of thing. What else do I need to make this type of music? I'm getting kind of burned out with machine and logic and the computer thing. Do I need any sort of midi sync box or what? Complete noob here.

oh yeah the vestax HD recorder with a big wood knob hahaha, I wish I had done some multitracking on a medium like ADAT or something that was not so dependent on the actual device or hard disk storage. I too have a lot of tunes from back then only as stereo and the levels or general arrangement is a mess.


yes those two machines play well together, Acid8 and A-01. a couple midi cables and you may be able to chain them together if only using so few and if they have MIDI thru on them. I use a palm-sized MIDIhub from a guy Hotchk155 on the site tindie, it was under $50 and can send MIDI clock to 6 devices or act as a MIDI thru if you want it to. helps me sync 4 drum machines and some synths with ease.

Cool, so in that jam you posted you're only using those two devices? As I said, I know nothing about this business of midi and linking stuff together. I'm lucky I can crunch out tunes with my daw logic/maschine/virus/etc..... but sick of the computer screen right now.

It would be nice to have a bunch of stuff I can hook up and just jam out and not have to look at a screen. This is why I bought a Toriaz. It's cool for busting out some drums and stuff, but it's somewhat limiting in the synth department. Was contemplating the Toraiz AS-1 but I don't want to wait for that to come out.

oh hellllll no!
I have a TR-626 drum machine out of the frame, sending MIDI notes to the SU700 for drums.
The 626 also sends sync clock to a DrumDokta2 drum machine that's in a eurorack modular skiff.
The DrumDokta2 then sends a trigger out to a few analog drum modules and a desktop drum synth too.
I used the MIDIhub as a master clock for the 626, Acid8 and A-01 on this session.
This way I have a few sequencers running and audio from a lot of different machines which can each be fx'd or mixed and eq'd on my mixer or thru eurorack, I think here the claps and snare rolls from the DrumDokta2 are run thru a nice analog filter (MI Ripples) and the Acid8 is run thru a eurorack pre-amp of sorts and into an old hardware rack phaser, the A-01 is run thru a MonotronDelay that's been chopped up and reborn as a eurorack module.

YES! that is so much fun to jam with the gear and not spend time looking at any screens. You could grab any of a dozen little synths to accompany the Toriaz.
Like a MeBlip Anode/Triode, MAM MBII retro, old rack synths (Bassstation, Neptune, etc.) that you may be able to sequence from the Toriaz?
Also check some that have their own sequencers - Acid8 of course, Roland TB-3, any of the Roland Boutique synths (VP-03 is great!), newest Bassstation or a SuperNova, also the Korg Volca series rips on the cheap!

temple of acid

Used the individual outs on the 707, added some wobbly bass from the 101, added the 808 as I was using it to trigger the 101 anyway, a cross-modded square from the JX-8P and a bit of 303 to finish it off. Kept levels nice then smashed it off the limiter using TB Barricade plugin - I really need to finish stuff rather than finishing at the 2m mark

707+303

I (can) do builds, just let me know..

cheers Decoder, appreciated. Will be in touch as I progress through the 2017 gear plan. Gotta get new monitors next as I think I've outgrown the plug in lap top speaker combo now thanks to GS

Is it acid? Only god can be my judge

Made after one too many paellas

thats just wrong. Im over here drooling

Got my hands on a Behringer X18 and I really like it. I made this just now with OBS. All live jam with my little meager set up.

found this the other day digging through some old stuff, i think it was done two or three years ago. not sure if i posted it in this thread at the time that i recorded it, if so i deleted it from SC long ago. way too long and monotonous, but it has its moments:

jamming with my 707 and 3 303s



Edit: did some rework, no more 707 but 909 and a bit of other stuff :>
