Ha - hu? Someone knocked!?
Actually, I don't know much more than the stuff frum JuGes list, I spotted some machines and samples here and there, but - as far as this sample-spotting goes, better ask LiamB, he sort of disappeared from the board, but he definitely is THE man for sample-questions concerning Prodge.
There's still loads of stuff in the sample-section that's very interesting to know about, but I'm sure you already checked it inside out, besides, that wasn't your question, was it.
As Stuff wrote, the JD can be found in pretty much any
Jilted-era track. I own one and you can clearly sort it out in tracks, it has the most incredible remarkable sound a digital based synth can have.
I think it was the last funky Roland-thing to come out. It's a
gem man, a gem.
Things I noticed which aren't mentioned on JuGes Equipment-section:
Intro: The background noise is some saw-wavetable thingie from the JD-990
B&E: Strings from the U-220 (w/t, or from the JUpiter), altered, not the original Jupiter-strings factory settings.
(Some overtone processing, they sound more crisp, and longer attack times)
The sine-noises surely come from one of his monosynth, probaply the SH-101.
Their Law: TR 909, that's for sure
there's more stuff, listen for yourself, I'm tired of writing right now (wrote all the day, bah)
By the way, I can recommend the BassStation, it is very cool.
It can NOT simulate the 303, the closest thing to that is still ReBirth, but it can sound very much LIKE it.
PLus, you can do so much more with it than the pretty much overused squelching stuff of the 303.
Mine broke down a couple of month ago, since I putted some mV too much into it (sounded INCREDIBLE! But wrecked it after a certain time. Still a good midi-controller... :-/ )
Really, if you have enough money to buy one, get over it and use ReBirth, it sounds absolutely similar, spend your money on a good pair of monitors or a much more versatile synth with which you could midi-process ReBIrth. Which would totally replace the 303 now.
What? You've only got a handful of knobs, and nearly everyone gives this baby the scream... ;-)
It's very easy to 'program', no matrix, no midi (unless you midify it) and the pattern-mode is very easy to figure out.
I still don't recommend it, not if you plan to build up basic stuff for recording.
It's the thing you can show your friends after a couple of years ("Hooo, he's got the TB-303, wow!") until then, use ReBirth and tell everyone you actually own one. Just don't invite them to play with it. Or say it broke down.
Or you've grown up and want to play with 'real' synthesizers...
;-)
Cheers mates

yeah, i would like to own a 303, i heard they are a bitch to program....
