The Behringer TD-3-MO Modded Out Analogue Bass Line Synthesizer is an upgraded version of the Behringer TD-3, featuring various modifications, enhancements, and new features. The circuitry has been redesigned, and a new sub-oscillator and MIDI controllable filter have been added. Additionally, there are new patch points and controls for modular experimentation. This synthesizer builds upon the success of the Behringer TD-3 and offers more in-depth controls and sound sculpting capabilities. The distortion circuit has been replaced with an overdrive circuit, allowing for crunchy and edgy sounds. The introduction of the new sub-oscillator enables the creation of warm and growling basslines. Filter Tracking has also been included to provide control over filter frequency tracking. The synthesizer incorporates authentic analog slide circuitry and Sawtooth/Square wave-shaping circuitry for advanced sound control.

The Behringer TD-3-MO is a revamped and expanded 303-style synthesizer. Originally designed as a digital replacement for bass guitars, the original 303 created unique bass sounds with a squelchy and chirping quality. Although it wasn’t fully utilized until the rise of dance music in the late 80s and early 90s, it played a vital role in the foundation of Acid House and EDM. The TD-3-MO replicates the sound and look of the original while offering new features. In addition to the redesigned circuitry, it provides Slide and Accent circuits, a new sub-oscillator for more powerful low-end sounds, and a MIDI-controllable filter for compatibility with music software. The onboard 16-step sequencer allows for the creation of a wide range of sounds, bass tones, and rhythms. The synth also includes a built-in arpeggiator for rhythmic pattern creation.
At the core of the TD-3-MO is a vintage-style oscillator with transistor wave-shaping circuitry. This oscillator can toggle between sawtooth and square waveforms, offering flexibility in sound design. Combined with the pure analog signal path, the TD-3-MO provides versatile sound-shaping capabilities, allowing for the creation of fat basses and stunning lead tones. The synthesizer features a four-pole low-pass filter, delivering the classic and iconic sound associated with the original 303. The filter can be easily adjusted to shape tones to your liking. The newly introduced overdrive circuit adds crunch and edge to the sound, ranging from subtle overtones to powerful distortion.
The TD-3-MO is compact and portable, with an intuitive layout that allows for easy use right out of the box. It features 15 controls and 33 switches, expanding on the original design to provide more options for sound sculpting. Behringer has implemented a 16-voice Poly Chain, allowing for the combination of multiple synths for up to 16-voice polyphony. This is especially useful for sound design and taking your creativity to the next level. The TD-3-MO also offers USB and MIDI connectivity, enabling integration with computers and other MIDI devices. This eliminates the need for complicated cabling, making it easier to incorporate the classic 303 sound into digital music production.
