    History of the Roland 303

    Hey Everyone,

    I hope you are all well.

    I've been away a while so I'm not sure if anyone has posted this earlier;
    http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...ideoID=4018793

    Coz, "Jam On It" is highlighted about halfway through.

    Cheers,
    Janni

    Thanx Jan, yeah I have this vid.
    Alright
    Tap the lightpole and we'll be jammin all night
    And ain't nobody callin' the cops
    'Cause everybody's here freakin', if they're older they're doin the rock
    And every block from all around
    Comes runnin' to the park when they hear the sound
    And soon the word's spreadin' through our part of town
    "Yo, 40 Park y'all, Jam-On's gettin down"
    Yeah...

    Coz - so did you ever get a decent bass sound out of the 303? Listening to the vid, you used it for a higher-pitched application, but an actual bassline? It sounds like it was alot of work to get a half decent bass sound out of it...

    Got some GREAT bass sounds out of it. It wasn't hard to get a good sound, it was hard to program the sequences, but I never minded going the extra mile to get a song right.

    "Automan", "Computer Age (Push The Button)" and "I'm Not A Robot" all had 303 basslines.
