Building my x0xb0x! (TB-303 clone)

[einsteinx2]

About halfway done with the build. So far, built and tested the power supply, VCO (voltage controlled oscillator -- the thing that generates the sound), and VCF (voltage controlled filter -- the thing that adjusts how "acidy" it sounds).

I should be done by the end of the week. Looking forward to linking this up with my computer and using it during DJ sets as well as in the studio. You can do everything in box and hook it up to midi to keep it in sync with your mix, or even completely control it via midi from a keyboard or anything sending a midi signal..

Just an example of what the x0xb0x can do (this isn't mine):

What will be the top of the x0xb0x. Only the square/saw wave switch and VCO frequency knob so far...


Testing the VCF.

My next project once the x0x is done is to build one of these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txL9l7fI0P4

Hi mate, how did your x0xb0x project end up? Can you post some update? I am very curious since I am thinking of buy one x0xb0x myself. Would you recommend it? Cheers
