The Roland TB-303 Bass Line synth returns, thanks to this new addition to the Roland Boutique range: the TB-03! Get all the classic TB-303 sounds at the palm of your hand, with this compact synthesizer. Thanks to Rolands innovative ACB technology, even though the TB-03 is a digital synthesizer and perfectly emulates the sound and behaviour of the analogue TB-303... you won't tell the difference!

Mini re-issue of the iconic Roland TB-303 - a pocket-sized bass line monster!

You know when you hear a TB-303—a hypnotic, tribal sound that works best in dark, crowded rooms with big sound systems. Using the same ACB (Analog Circuit Behavior) technology from the acclaimed AIRA series, the Roland TB-03 accurately emulates the expressive, slippery sound of its older brother, and even adds a few surprises. Saw and square waveforms are available, along with all of the rotary control knobs that help shape the 303’s unique character, including tuning, cutoff, resonance, envelop mod, decay, and accent.
