This looks a lot like a X0XB0X with better case design and a battery. Which is pretty nice. The 4-Pole OTA filter is the Roland TB-303 one that people seem to like, again, like the x0xb0x. Hmmm. I hope they are giving credit where its due.
- RossBencina 7y agoThe TB-303 uses a diode ladder filter, not an OTA filter. http://www.timstinchcombe.co.uk/index.php?pge=diode2 http://www.timstinchcombe.co.uk/index.php?pge=diode2 http://www.timstinchcombe.co.uk/index.php?pge=diode http://www.timstinchcombe.co.uk/index.php?pge=diode I'm pretty sure that the Jupiter 6 and Jupiter 8 filters use OTAs. Perhaps that's what you were thinking of.
- pixelface 7y agoyou're both in the right realm insofar as thinking of 1980s Roland gear, but this is very much a modernized tribute to the SH-101 to the point that it more or less shares not only the functional side but also the control layout and aesthetic of the SH-101. It seems like this could be a very nice unit, although far from the first modern thing to recreate the SH-101 (for a very recent example, see Behringer's attempt) That being said I find it a bit odd to make such a fuss about rechargeable batteries as the original Roland unit already had battery power (as did the TB-303 and TR-606). You can simply put rechargeable batteries in them. Worth noting that you can still buy the original Roland SH-101 for less than even the "early bee" price on kickstarter.
