anyone here owns a xox box?

how is it like? does it work/sound well?

I own one, and I think so does kookoon. I have #318. It is the shit, I played my first show with it on friday night, the thing RIPS APART a venue. A sonic dream.

Get one, it's better than a 303. I'm trying to find another one. The midi-implementation is intense, check out my track I made with it and a modified monoliner sequencer in Reaktor 5

Nearly all the tracks on the UR website have the x0x in them. =D

the show went really well though, people really responded to the x0xb0x, and my friend/engineer for our label (Bobby Lee) played a nanoloop gameboy set with an ER1 which people went CRAZY for

yeah i have one too, it's very good.

i just sign up for x0xb0x waiting list

snowflakes chance in?

thanks for the replies, it seems worth getting one

How is the sound comparison?

it's best to check out official forums for that. many people say they sound identical, personally i think the high-resonance sounds aren't 100% same, but close enough.

I remember you and CMA doing side by side tests... honestly I have never heard two 303's sound the same, so you aren't going to get a x0x to sound just like a 303...

what?"

Haha, that didn't make much sense. My point was that it's all analog gear, each magic box is going to sound unique enough to tell the difference between it and another. My x0x doesn't sound the same at the beginning of a set than it does at the end of a set.

Oh and OP, another great thing about the x0xb0x is if you build it yourself you aren't afraid of fixing/modding it.

if you never wear clothes twice and have a ferarri for each day of the week, there's no question gravy is better than imitation - however, from what i can tell, they're pretty close, so much so i'd be hard pressed to know if i took the pepsi challenge.

i also love to build things. that's another score for the x0xb0x for me.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to have a bona fide TB303, but if someone offered me a free 303 or a free x0x, I'd be hard pressed to choose between the two.

Get free 303, sell on e-bay, buy x0xb0x and still have money left?

Took me and a friend the better part of noon until the late evening to finish it

 

was fun!

well it was my first diy project, it took me longer - about three evenings. qnio, how much soldering experience do you have?
