x0xb0x - The Beast
Ive been after a TB-303 for quite some time now but as the prices are well over ฃ1000 I decided to go for the next best thing, a x0xb0x. After looking around there are many people selling their own custom builds on ebay, however I wanted to make sure it was a professional build and then I came across The Beast and after some research on x0xb0x official forums it was apparent that this guy had some good reputation and his site clearly shows that he is experienced with modding the original TB-303, TR-606 it also stated that he used the exact components of the original which most (if not all) x0xb0x do not. I met up with this guy to purchase a x0xb0x and after getting home and testing it out I was extremely pleased, with the combination of midi/din/cv-gate (all of which can be used at same time) by new mini-studio was well on its way :D

Electribe ES-1 :D
Before buying one of these I was on the look to get a drum machine which had 2 key features; 1) Easy on-board sequencing 2) Flexible sounds. At first I had my eye on the ER-1 but after watching numerous videos it was clear that the sounds were simply ok and didnt offer much in flexibility, so then I looked into the ES-1 and being a sampling drum machine it had the flexibility of using any sound. After looking on ebay I managed to purchase one for just over ฃ100 including a whopping 32mb memory card :O and usb card reader. Now its packed full of my favorite drum machines: Tr-606, Tr-707, Tr-808, Tr-909 and with plenty of space still available this should last me some time :)
GP2X:Wiz has landed
I was quite sceptical about the GP2X Wiz, as there are many hand-held linux driven consoles out there but after reading numerous reviews and viewing the tech specs it seemed to be the right choice. First impressions was impressed although without installing emulators the device is quite pointless, but once you have the emulators installed such as the Gameboy, Super Nintendo, Mame, Neo-Geo etc. the device comes alive. The battery seems to last quite a while around 5-7 hours although charging takes around 5hours with the device turned off and aparently double if the device is on. The touch screen is quite responsive but is pointless to use as its just for the main menus, the rest of the controls are as good as any other hand-held. The only down point is no wifi or multiplayer but I am sure one day it will be available :)

Although this was an amateur video and on a low budget, this is truly a wonderful piece of work and the mind wonders what they could achieve with a bigger budget!
