Analog Renaissance TS-303 MK2 ACID SCREAMER

"Distortion effect designed for the TB-303. Where the original TS-303 was a variant of the infamous TS-808, with some adaptations to match the signal levels of the TB-303 and a few soundwise alterations, this MK2 version is a complete new design with possibilities never seen anywhere. From electronic design and mechanical construction point of view it is lightyears ahead of the previous one.



Features:
-2 different operation modes: Distortion and overdrive
-Variable dynamics restoration: Every distortion effect has the same problem: Dynamics gets lost and everything sounds equally loud. Translated to the TB-303 this means that you lose accents. This dynamics restoration reconstructs the envelope of the original signal while maintaining the distorted sound.
-Frequency selective distortion: This gives the possibility to choose which part of the frequency spectrum gets the most distortion. Quite amazing how this enables to pick things out of the soup which were otherwise not audible."

  4. Hi this is D' Naab 136 here.
    At this moment the 'release candidate' pcb is on its way to me. If this one is ok I will start selling them. I deliberately left out contact info so that I don't get burried in 'are they available yet?' mails.
