Cyclone Analogic Cyclone Analogic BASS BOTT TT-303 V2

Imagine a compact box that nails the squelchy, sliding soul of the original TB-303, but with modern tweaks that make it play nicer in today's setups.

This monophonic analog beast runs a single VCO pumping out sawtooth or square waves across 20Hz to 850Hz, feeding into a classic 24dB/oct lowpass filter with resonance you can dial up for that signature acid bite. Hands-on knobs handle tuning, cutoff, resonance, envelope mod, decay, and accent, while the step sequencer holds 432 user patterns up to 64 steps each, plus 108 ROM presets across nine styles—complete with swing/shuffle, adjustable gate/slide times, mute, and hammer for live tweaks. At 310 x 130 x 35 mm, it's desktop-friendly with smooth pots, 26 illuminated buttons, tap tempo, and a wealth of 3.5mm jacks for CV/gate/accent/VCO out, clock, filter in, plus full-size MIDI in/out and 6.3mm main/headphone outs.

Players love its warm, full-bodied tone that cuts through mixes better than budget clones, praising the stable tuning and expanded sequencing for endless groove inspiration—though some note the original-style note entry takes getting used to.
