Why does the basic 303 type sound sound so great, being just a monophonic, single-oscillator? Pitch-accents and programming aside, are the Virus filters just not fat enough?
In addition, what sort of distortion boxes (hardware or software) are good to use to get the above types of sounds?

All 3 of them samples are real TB303 BTW.

Thought so. The acid in the Asys2 demo sounds exactly the same as Fat Boy Slim's "Everyone Needs a 303".
I heard that the 303 sounds weak on its own, so I guess outboard/external distortion is the biggy, which enhances the 303's own filter at the same time.
Yeah, there are definate problems imitating the 303 on the Virus. Understandably so, obviously, as the Virus has completely different implementations of filters of course - each tool to its own, and all that - just in the same way that a 303 wont sound like a Virus - but purely for the heck of it and the sake of an inquiring mind the Virus' own saturation sucks the life out of everything, and the distortion tends to make stuff sound more fizzy than "lead-like".

A ribbon-controller or XY-Pad might be nice, too, please! Thanks!
