OSC303MKII batch one now shipping

The first batch of OSC303MKII's is ready, emails have started to go out so check those spam folders ;-) Batch two should hopefully ready in two to three weeks!

OSC303MKII panels are in

These just turned up this morning, build starts next week!

The OSC303 is back! same, same and more

As with the original OSC303 we have the saw and the not so square, square waveforms.

Here's a list of the improvements,

Complete PCB redesign in the style of the DrumDokta and VCF303 (skiff friendly).
Silver anodised,aluminium panel with sub-eloxal print (printed directly into the oxide layer)
Fine and coarse tune.
Now free running.
Much louder outputs (Saw ~10v p-p)
Linear FM with attenuation
Bonus waveform, the not so triangle, triangle.

Available around autumn time, pricing tba but will follow the same philosophy as the original OSC303, (ie as low cost as possible)

The waiting list is open so if you want to get on it drop an email to info@dinsync.info

VCF303 jam

Just a little jam I did this afternoon.

Modules used.

makenoise Rene, Pressure Points, Brains
4MS RCD, SCM
Doepfer A-111-5 (lfo only), A-132

Project Status Updates.

The DrumDokta run is finished.

Yes that's it! The very last DrumDokta has rolled off the workbench. It was never any secret that it was a limited edition module and as they say, all things come to an end. There are still a few pcbs left over so I may make a few more at some point but not anytime soon.

The DDB build has started.

The DDB build is well underway, please note that this is an expander for the DrumDokta and not a stand alone module. Everyone who bought a DrumDokta direct will get an email in the coming weeks for ordering, those with units from batch one and two will get the now obsolete rean knobs so that they match (yes I saved some) and those from the last batch will get the new style knobs. If you picked one up second hand and want to get a DDB drop me a line on info@dinsync.info and let me know your serial number to be sure to get the correct knob style.

The VCF303 project is underway.

Prototype pcbs will be here in the very near future, pretty excited about this one and I know a lot of you have been waiting quite a while for it. It's going to be well worth the wait. Drop me a line if you want to get on the waiting list.

The OSC303 will be back!

And finally giving this one a revisit with a MKII version. Not going to give too much away on this yet, but it will feature that ever so lovely not so square, square wave and some improvements over the original.

stay tuned

OSC303 sold out (again)

Well the second and final run is finally over. That's really it now, time to move on to the next modules. The CCCP project is going on the back burner for now and work will soon begin on new modules (which I'm not going to mention just yet).

Will there ever be any more OSC303's made? unlikely, though I suppose we should never say never. At this point if you have one hold on to it. Of course it's no future classic but since there was only a relatively small amount made one would hope they will at least retain their value.

A big thanks to everyone who bought one, It was a real pleasure bringing them to you.

OSC303 batch two (final run) starting to ship

The second and final batch of OSC303 is starting to ship, it'll be a few weeks until I've managed to get through the entire waiting list but feel free to drop me a line on info@dinsync.info if you wish to check if your ordering email has been sent out already.

This will be the final run of this module, once they are gone they are gone! there will probably still be a small amount left after the waiting list is completed so again drop me a line if you wish to be added.

Batch two well under way

Here's a pic of some of the second batch OSC303 modules in various stages, looks like a little army :-D

Won't be too much longer until the first units from this run are shipping.

The OSC303 second batch build has begun

Just a quick update to say that the build for the second batch has begun, hopefully it's just a few short weeks until the first units start shipping. Right now I'm just waiting on a few bits from my suppliers.

As with last time, there is a waiting list due to the limited nature of this module. So if you want to be sure of getting one drop me an email on info@dinsync.info to be added to the list.

OSC303 SOLD OUT (well the first run is at least)

Here's a picture of the last OSC303 to be shipped from the first run.

It's not over though since I have managed to secure another batch of the rare components to do a modest second run of OSC303's before the CCCP version goes into production.

So if you want to be sure of getting hold of an OSC303 drop me an email on info@dinsync.info to get on the waiting list and let me know if you want an OSC303 or a CCCP.

The next batch will hopefully be ready to ship within a month.

A big thank you to everyone who already bought one.

Citric Acid OSC303 jam

Just got this from Citric Acid who received his OSC303 in the mail today, really nice to see (and hear) and I figured i'd share it here.

OSC303 starting to ship

The first units are now shipping, if you are on the waiting list and you didn't receive a notification email you should be getting one within a few days (if not already). If you think you should already have one perhaps check your spam folder or feel free to drop me a line to check if you made it to the top of the list yet.

It'll be a few days until I've completed the list and yes again there are still some places available so you know what to do if you want one of this batch ;-)



The burn in test for the modules before calibration.



and here's whats going out the door this week.

OSC303 build well under way

As you can see I'm on schedule for the planned February release of OSC303. Since this module is limited edition it will begin shipping next week for those already on the waiting/reminder list, the demand for which has been quite high. Once the list is completed I'll announce it for general release.

There are still places left so as mentioned in the previous post, if you want to get on the list just drop me an email if you want to be sure of getting one of this batch.

Getting closer

The panels have arrived finally, here's a little teaser pic of the final design. The CCCP one is a future module that wont be released just yet. Basically CCCP is OSC303 built with alternative parts, it sounds just as good but obviously it's not as authentic.

Since OSC303 is a 1:1 clone of the TB-303 oscillator getting the correct parts is difficult, so essentially it will be a limited edition. When supplys start to run low CCCP will phase it out.

If you want to get on the reminder list drop me an email on info@dinsync.info and you'll get an email when one is available.

If all goes well the first units should begin shipping next week!

A quick look at things to come

Now you probably saw this post where I did a small demonstration of OSC303 and VCF303. Anyway I just received this picture from Pro-Modular who are making the panels for OSC303 so I thought I'd share it with you.

There will be a few subtle revisions but for the most part this is what the first dinsync.info eurorack module will look like.

This should be shipping at the start of next month, more details and specifications soon.

Watch this TB-303 video very carefully

It's worth watching until the end, it'll make more sense then.
