This faithful homage captures the pure analog signal path, VCO, VCF and VCA designs that made the original a cult classic, while adding contemporary features like an all-new Distortion circuit and enhanced reliability that far surpasses its 1970s and '80s predecessors.
The TD-3-SR's versatile 24 dB/octave filter sits at the core of its sound-shaping capabilities, allowing you to sculpt everything from super-fat bass lines to otherworldly lead tones through intuitive Cutoff frequency and Resonance controls. Great care has been taken in the engineering process, including matched transistors and true-to-original circuitry that provides the ultra-flexible sonic palette covering classic EDM, synth-pop, and progressive rock territories - or completely original sounds limited only by your imagination. The onboard 16-step sequencer features 7 tracks and can store up to 250 patterns across 4 Groups, with both Keyboard and Step recording modes plus an addictive Arpeggiator for endless creative possibilities.
While monophonic by design, the 16-note Poly Chain function allows you to link multiple units for up to 16-voice polyphony, and the built-in Distortion circuit adds serious punch when you need to push your performance to maximum impact. With 11 controls and 28 switches providing direct real-time parameter access, plus a multi-I/O patchbay for external device integration, the TD-3-SR puts comprehensive analog synthesis power in an intuitive layout that makes sound creation genuinely enjoyable. The default signal routing means you can start creating amazing sounds immediately without any patch cables, making this synthesizer perfect for both studio work and live performance applications.
