so I now have a tb303
does this mean I still have acid box blues
hmm not sure matey
but here is how to copy a pattern on a 303
works like a treat,, great for quick variations
from the good men and women of acid-house.net
1° select the destination pattern
!! remember, you have 8 patterns in a row 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8, those are in fact 2 groups: 1234 and 5678.. you cannot copy from e.g. 8 to 1.. you’ll notice the same side-effect when chaining patters..
2° clear the destination pattern
3° go to the source pattern
!! immediately select it, do not select another one first!
also remember the comments in step 1
4° enter pitch mode and write down the first note, then exit pitch mode
5° enter time mode and write down all time info, keeping count on the amount of notes (using the next button offcourse)
6° go back to the destination pattern
7° change the amount of steps if needed (not neccesary if its 16 steps)
8° enter time mode information
9° enter pitch mode and change only the first note, exit pitch
10° you’re done, enter pattern play mode and have fun!
