switch for internal- or digital oscillator
switch for 24 db or 12 db filter
switch for disabling the internal vca envelope
256 patterns
128 patches
randomize pattern with pattern mask
clean pattern with pattern mask
shuffle
time mode is not needed anymore
midi implementation
one external out for drums or voices
one out is directly connected to the 303 filter
adjustable pre filter overdrive
free volume adsr curves
adjustable slide time
filter cutoff modulation by
fm with the ext out means voice 2 or voice 3
fm with the drums
or just create simple filter sweeps very like the demo i already did with the v1.0 version
switch for disabling the internal filter env mod... this is needed if you want have a fully ultra303 filter envelope control
pattern initialisation and fast duplication routines
4/8/16 to pattern len , shift, transpose up/dw and so on
pattern editor
--------------
fast jumping inside the pattern via short cuts
copy and paste of pattern parts
direct access in the pattern editor to editing features without leaving
clearing (up down accent slide), transpose and shift for a selection of the pattern
and so on...
and some other features ;)
up to 3 voices editable directly in the editor
digital oscillators
-------------------
3 voices (could be more...atm i set it to 3 let's see how many i'll include)
the voices can be routed freely to ext out or 303 intern filter
2 oscs per voice
saw, pulse (pulse width), sin, tri
bit crusher
frequence modulation (pm)
ring modulation
sync
4 lfos per voice
modulation up to 1,2 khz
saw, pulse, sin, tri
syncing to note, pat, 1/2 pat, 1/4 pat, 1/8 pat
4 envelopes per voice...standard adsr (with log and anti log curves)
full read and write of the patches
almost all can be modulated
drum machine
------------
a selection of 808 and 909 samples
10 independent lines
each line has
volume
decay
tune
4 accent volume steps
pre definded patterns by shortcut
each line can be switched on/off by shortcut
the drums can be routed thru the 303 filter
.:features of the old v1.0 version (canceled):.
lcd display to show informations and stuff.
full emulation of the old internal sequencer.
more advanced editing of the patterns like transpose, step forward and back, display of the next note and pattern position, randomize,1/32 notes, pitchmode and time mode is not separated and pattern length is not fixed to 16 steps anymore.
midi implementation.
pattern select via midi bankselect... trackmode is not needed anymore and will be skipped !
better syncronisation...it can be synconized via midi clock (midi to cv/gate is not needed anymore) or it can syncronized via an internal bpm counter which is syncronized with a pattern select.
standard midi stuff like note on off...accent slide filter automation.
velocity (filter).
2 lfo (filter).
2 envelopes (filter).
backup of the internal sequences .
online editing on the pc during the 303 replays a song.
the old ram is replaced by a eeprom...a backup battery is not needed anymore.
64 patterns ... extenable to 512 patterns.
2 internal 0-5 v analog outputs. which can be used to control stuff for every note... it's possible to setup a value for the aux outputs... that is more for ppl who are planning to do mods for the 303 by default they aren't used...or for people who are using a modular synth (cv outputs) .
a sid emulation is included to make new sounds...means the 303 has a new osc to create 3 osc sounds... of course the old one is still working and usable...you can use the old or new. (this feature will not be included in the release... i guess i need a second cpu for this
random pattern generator...each feature gate note up down accent and slide can be generated separately... also it's possible to setup a mask on which steps a random should be preformed.
transpose up and down.
shift left and right of the pattern.
a simple pattern init is implemented.
init silence and init 1/16 c.
ultra303 is working on the ml 303 clone.
a special copy feature is implemented to duplicate for example the first 4 steps to 16 steps by coping the first 4 steps to the other 12 steps...same is available for 2->16 and 8->16.
scale correction of the patterns. means you never get disharmonic tones when you know the chords of your song... there are 20 scales to select from.
special clear feature is implemented...means it's possible to clear note accent slide up and down separately...also it's possible to setup a mask for this.
uploading of the firmware via midi
a pattern groove editor is implemented... means a shuffle on the pattern is possible.
