OVERVIEW

Uncanny emulation of the TB303 bassline synthesizer.

The Phoscyon TB303 Emulation (VST/AU) is the definitive 303 emulation, with a super convenient sequencer to immediately get your creative juices flowing. This emulation of the legendary 303 "silver box,” it has been taken to entirely new heights. D16 Group took the critically acclaimed and successful Phoscyon 1 and completely re-designed the signal path to achieve an unprecedented level of emulation accuracy, resulting in this new incarnation of the plug-in.

Not just one, but every 303 … under your fingertips
Sometimes, you might wonder why your 303 unit doesn't have as low a cutoff as you can hear on one of your favorite tracks. Diehard 303 fans know every 303 has a distinctive character, and now you can replicate that using Phoscyon 2’s Calibration Parameters. Not only do you have easy access to the familiar synthesis knobs, but you also get a backstage pass to the inner workings of the synth; D16 Group included the service trim pots, originally designed for calibration, and some tweaks even owners of the original silver box couldn’t have dreamt of. In short, it’s a gateway to an entirely new dimension of control and musical expression.

Beyond the original
Besides the parameters you can find on the original 303, there are also a bunch of knobs that most of you know and love from popular mods and circuit bends within the 303 community.

Vibrato novelty
You won't find this in even the most twisted 303 modifications out there, the vibrato effect. Used only by a handful of 303 artists in their work, it's achieved in a unique way. The original trick uses a two-note tremolo which is smoothed by note sliding, resulting in a distinctive 303-style vibrato. Phoscyon 2 replicates this process in a more intuitive fashion, so you can achieve the sound with just two knobs. The vibrato effect relies on two alternating notes rather than an oscillator, so the two-note spread decides vibrato range and the note duration dictates the speed.

State-of-the-art FX chain
Every good 303 sound has a well-suited effects chain and, with Phoscyon 2, you can find a whole bunch of algorithms with acidic squeaks in mind.

The distortion
Distortion is the most important effect in the chain. D16 Group's implementation contains a selection of 19 distinctive-sounding models, based on famous hardware units that are notorious with the most recognizable 303 artists.

Reorderable insert effects
You can shuffle effect order with ease to get extra flavors and make great-sounding riffs out-of-the-box:
• Algorithmic reverb with independent settings for both early and late reflections
• 4-band parametric EQ
• Delay with tempo sync option and in-loop multi-mode filter
• Chorus with two delay lines
• Limiter with compression characteristics: controllable knee, ratio, threshold and envelope

The perfect sequencer for live performers and studio producers
An entirely re-designed sequencer/arpeggiator makes the plug-in even more appealing. Edit patterns with ease and convenience, play them live in a loop and switch between them in whatever way you find most convenient—using a mouse, a MIDI controller or DAW MIDI notes to express your musical ideas.

See where you are with one glance
Some hardcore 303 fans have learned to love the limitations of the original sequencer and now consider them part of their workflow. Others prefer a more modern approach to sequence editing. To meet the needs of both types of people, Phoscyon 2 features two different modes to control the sequencer.

Music roulette
A new randomizer feature has been seamlessly integrated into the internal sequencer, allowing you to switch easily back and forth between randomizing a sequence and editing it. You can decide which notes and step attributes are randomized with real-time density control for generated sequences.

Live override
Give life to your patterns by influencing Accent, Slide or Vibrato while playing.

Drag-and-drop export
Once you’ve got the perfect pattern, you can seamlessly import it into your favorite DAW by simply drag-and-dropping it.

A variety of trigger modes
Use a pattern trigger mode that suits you: MIDI notes, MIDI CC or GUI.

Arpeggiate to get more sophisticated and deliberate motives
It's not a typical, boring-styled arpeggiator with few travel modes that generate the obvious note runs that are completely unpredictable while playing. You get an advanced tool where you can prepare a "template" of your riff that's a basis for more production-predictable sequences as the result.

Substantial factory content
Over 800 presets and patterns, out-of-the-box.

Re-sizable GUI
Several UI size options offer the perfect fit in your DAW screen and optimum workflow.

MIDI Learn
MIDI Learn helps link almost any visible control to your MIDI controller, so you can let your creativity loose in the moment.
