You’re a life saver. As an absolute beginner to analogue music machines and midi, i was finally able to sync these two machine together. Cant believe noone else online was able to clearly walk me through like you did.
Thank you so much for this video! I am not a professional musician/composer, just a home guy who has been into goa/psy trance for the last 20 years or so. Have always wanted a TB-303, and now I have the TD-3 to play with! Had it for about a week, very new to it, and your video here showed me two things that were really important to me..... changing keys, and copy/pasting patterns! Knowing even just those two things is opening up my mind to what I can do with my TD-3, now I just have to quit work so I have time to do them!!!!
Awesome little video. I've been playing with this TD-3 off and on for a couple weeks and it's like dragging my knuckles across a cheese grater....but your video clarified a lot of things and made me decide against selling this thing. Kudos!
Everything I needed to know about td3 in one video thank you sir well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 best tutorial I have watched in the past few days on explaining what I’m interested in learning with my td3
I have the TD-3 and love it. I use a cheap Behringer delay pedal. I just got a used TR-8 because it has both a 808 and 909. Could not afford both of the upcoming Behringer analog versions. This video is super helpful. I'm new to side chaining.
Hello, it's 5 o'clock am !!! And I just woke up with that in my head so I had to try and hell yeah, that is insane! so gate out trig the filter by modulate the resonance tweaked as hell for a more liquid bubble sound, Crazyyyy ! Now it resonate as an introduction to modular world with all those crazy interactions ! Thanks a lot bro 😜 Other tips like that would be over appreciated !!!
Just picked up a TR-8 today!! Bought the TD-3 a couple weeks ago.... Worked out great that there's a wait on the Behringer RD-6 here, because now I've seen how the TR 8 is with the 7x7 package I feel like this is the way better choice!!
Weirdly the clear start / clear / start method doesn't work when the clock source is set to MIDI. Only seems to work with internal (but you can still press clear + pattern number)
@James Adley easiest if done with the editor without it I don't even know how to do it without as far as going from internal clock to trigger but I know it can be done I run sync ou5 of the volca to trigger in you will have to power up your volca for the td3 to play
@James Adley I suppose the 1 complaint I have with the Td3 is the tempo has no value displayed I hate ha4dware that doesn't have that it's almost a deal breaker
I'm getting a bit frustrated. I add the notes, and they play perfectly, but when I add the rests, the entire sequence just plays 1 note, as if disregarding what I put down in pitch mode.
How long is the oscillator gate open (what percent of a 16th note) on that machine on a whole step and how long on a half step? Thanks in advance for answers!
Hello, I bought a TB3 and I can't synchronize them via MIDI IN/OUT between the devices. I have both devices on channel 10 and the other on MIDI. What do I need to configure?
I just connected the alesis sr16 drum machine via midi with the TD3 but i noticed that there is a bit of latency by the TD3. Is there a solution for this problem? The alesis sr16 drum machine doesn't have sync output. Thanks
Have you set the td3 to midi mode are you sending on the correct midi channel shouldn't be latency when using midi I always have a rock solid sync even when I daisy chain midi through 3-4 synths
I have the midi going out from the tr 6s going into the td 3 and I set the sync to midi but it's not playing, even after following the manual several times. Am I missing something? Does the stereo output cable have to be shared with both the tr6s and the tds? Like one is right and the other left?
Maybe check the midi output channel of the tr6 and the midi input channel of the td3 the should be the same see if you are sending a clock out and use the midi thru to midi in
The sidechain is a little easier on the TR8 I find. You can route the audio on allright and you have way more out puts. Tr8s is a great machine but the menu diving is so convoluted. However Roland just released a software editor which really opens up the machine. I enjoyed the tr8 as it was limited and you knew what you had to work with and could masters it easier. The tr8s the possibilities are endless
Always confused me as u are so bizzy and can't answer simple question .. y buy behringer .. wen u have a expensive roland their .... u gert sausage mumper
I love that no one, and I mean NO ONE, can demonstrate a 303 or TD-3 without having a quick nob twiddle :D
Thanks for the tutorial :D

Work can bring you more synths
Thank you. I've recently bought a TD-3, and let's just say it's a steep learning curve. This helped a lot.
That sidechain is insane!!! Nice video, just picked up my TD3 MO today!
It really is!

it can be a fun little device check out my how to make acid in 3 minutes video
This is the best td-3 instruction video on you tube 👍

Very nice!
Really helpful buddy - thanks for these videos. Going to get one of these - you're explaining very well. Cheers
you are the best ! I finally know how to sync the two together
Boom Success
Cheers for all that! You also don’t need the sw, can be synced using TD-3 hardware functions. Just did that exactly
Try putting a mono patch cable on the Filter IN input and CV OUT & Gate Out ;=)

@@AxisChemicals hell yeah
Noob here, can someone explain what this means? Sounds cool
Ty Much!!!💜🙌
Thank you for this video！it really help me a lot！
Thank you, you made understanding this so simple. I’ll be using this again to remind me :-).
No problem, I use it to remind me too.

Very nice! Have you seen my video with the td3 and the tr8
Banging little tune you had going there
That's "i feel love by donna summer "
Thank you very much, this helped me out how to skip notes👍
I'm just getting into synths but I've played guitar for years; I'm gonna have some real fun with all my effect pedals......😀😉
That's gas I have been into synths for years and just started playing guitar and want pedals.
Thanks for the video! You've cleared up SO Much for me!
Thank - you for the Tutorial 🎶😎🎶
Quality video as usual. Thank you.
Brilliant..!
Thanks mate
No worries
Thanks for a fine explenation.
Weirdly the clear start / clear / start method doesn't work when the clock source is set to MIDI. Only seems to work with internal (but you can still press clear + pattern number)
It also works if you switch from internal clock to trigger I have my volca sample2 sending clock to my td3
I have been thinking of doing this! The volca only has a midi in though, is it a easy setup?
@James Adley easiest if done with the editor without it I don't even know how to do it without as far as going from internal clock to trigger but I know it can be done I run sync ou5 of the volca to trigger in you will have to power up your volca for the td3 to play

I'm getting a bit frustrated. I add the notes, and they play perfectly, but when I add the rests, the entire sequence just plays 1 note, as if disregarding what I put down in pitch mode.
sorry for the stupid question, is it possible to do sustain notes? like 4 bars one note. or thru midi the only way?
Great video thanks man!
that was great helped a lot
thanks
Glad it helped!
Awesome!!!, thanks...
You're welcome!
How long is the oscillator gate open (what percent of a 16th note) on that machine on a whole step and how long on a half step? Thanks in advance for answers!
Not sure really it's whole steps 100% and half steps so, 50% . There is a decay parameter so you can adjust.
Thank you so much needed this! When you adjust the tempo on the TD-3 will the tempo on the TR-8 adjust to or Vice versa?
Only the tempo on the tr8 will work as it’s is the master
Nice one .
If u want to use a
Your td3 a lot of time try to not press so hard the play stop button . it will be broken very easy
Yeah your right , I should treat it with more care, if it breaks I may get a yellow one. Ha ha
Back in the days people used to remove the batteries to create random patterns, i have been told that some made whole records like that.
Really 😂. It’s fitting that something as random as that generates random patterns
Yes true, first, was accidentaly and then it began a tip to random your patterns héhé!
Hello, I bought a TB3 and I can't synchronize them via MIDI IN/OUT between the devices. I have both devices on channel 10 and the other on MIDI. What do I need to configure?
Make sure it's not on internal mode
Thank u

Have you set the td3 to midi mode are you sending on the correct midi channel shouldn't be latency when using midi I always have a rock solid sync even when I daisy chain midi through 3-4 synths
Do the rest and tie steps cut off the last notes programmed in the pitch mode?
I have the midi going out from the tr 6s going into the td 3 and I set the sync to midi but it's not playing, even after following the manual several times. Am I missing something?
Does the stereo output cable have to be shared with both the tr6s and the tds? Like one is right and the other left?
Maybe check the midi output channel of the tr6 and the midi input channel of the td3 the should be the same see if you are sending a clock out and use the midi thru to midi in
does the tr8s handle audio the same way as the tr8?
The sidechain is a little easier on the TR8 I find. You can route the audio on allright and you have way more out puts. Tr8s is a great machine but the menu diving is so convoluted. However Roland just released a software editor which really opens up the machine. I enjoyed the tr8 as it was limited and you knew what you had to work with and could masters it easier. The tr8s the possibilities are endless
What reverb pedal to you have?
Looks like a boss RV 5
Sometimes the sequencer only lets me input 12 steps rather than 16 - does anyone know what determines this? I can't seem to figure this out. :(
You have probably only set the pattern to twelve steps to try connect it to the software synth tool and change the pattern from the sequencer
Mark DB okay great, thanks - will try that
Are you Irish my man ?
Yes
Cool , I'm from cork myself

Always confused me as u are so bizzy and can't answer simple question .. y buy behringer .. wen u have a expensive roland their .... u gert sausage mumper
Ha ha what ? Analog v digital - TD-3 sounds fatter - tb-03 is too easy to program and rare
