Two pattern loops (stereo 192kbs MP3) have been posted to the samples page.
The patterns were programmed into a x0xb0x and TB303, which were DINSYNC'd together. The two were then tweaked in unison and recorded with one acting as left channel output and one acting as right channel output.
To play, listen to both using an MP3 player where you can 'pan' the balance of left/right channels. Then vote on what you think is the configuration we used. Both files have the same configuration.

I think the right channel is the real 303 as well, although they are extremely close.
The right channel has more of a high frequency chirp at extreme resonance.
That said, the left channel (which I assume is the x0xb0x) has a seemingly thicker midrange and deeper, crunchier gurgle-- in some ways I actually prefer this one.
Outstanding work, whatever the true configuration!

303 on right, x0x on left.
On the right channel the square wave sounds more hollow and fluid when the filter is closed with low resonance which sounds more like a 303 to my ears, I have been using 303's for 17 years and have never heard any clone do the square wave with low filter accurately. Of course I could be wrong in and the way the two are tweaked differs a fair bit so it could just be this.
Either way the x0x is a great sounding clone and at times it is very difficult to tell which is which, but at around 3.58 on the second clip that sounds exactly like a 303 on the right channel. If I am wrong then the x0x actually sounds better to my ears!
Congratulations, glad I'm on the waiting list
