For everyone confused/frustrated with writing 303 patterns in the box, here is Beyun's overview (and some tips) of the PATTERN WRITE mode on Din Sync's RE-303 (w/ the Sonic Potions CPU installed).
The RE-303 is a REPLICA (not a clone) of the original Roland TB-303. The TB-303 is a bassline synthesizer that was originally designed to emulate a bass guitar but became the foundation for the Acid sound after Phuture released "Acid Tracks" in 1987. Remember tho, it's not so much about the 303 but HOW you play it that defines the true acid sound...but more on that later.
Please note that some of the behavior outlined in this tutorial will be VERY different from the TB-303 due to the CPU choice. For instance, I don't think it's possible to RUN the TB-303 while changing the pitch or time information. That being said, this CPU choice does not affect the sound of the RE vs the TB-that sonic character is largely due to the analog circuitry (especially the CAREFUL choice of diodes and transistors). But for sequencing, the Sonic Potions CPU makes it far superior to the original.
