ReBirth 338

Filed under: Uncategorized | Back to: Homepage

ReBirth emulates two Roland TB-303 synthesizers, a Roland TR-808, and a Roland TR-909 drum machine all at once.

Each of the emulated devices has its own pattern selector, a feature the original devices are lacking. This allows fast switches between different musical sequences. ReBirth also features mixers, a pattern controlled filter (PCF) and some of the standard effects in software synthesizers like delay, compressor and distortion.

The virtual knobs and controls can be assigned to physical counterparts via MIDI, so knobs, modulation wheels, faders and other performance controls available on keyboards and modules can be used to shape the software sound.
