Product Information

PS: Depends on whether you perform the factory reset or not after updating the firmware, 16 SLOTs might be filled with random contents when first time entering SONG MODE. But no worry, hold CLEAR/REST button for about 3 seconds will clear all the SLOT settings.) The Donner B1's performance capabilities have been upgraded, allowing musicians to trigger GATE LENGTH, ACCENT, RATCHET, SLIDE, and HOLD functions in real-time. These added functionalities enhance live performances, enabling performers to adjust these parameters on-the-fly and create dynamic musical expressions. Chinese low-budget guitar pedal and music tech manufacturer Donner has launched B1, it’s first 303-style analog bassline Synthesizer with sequencer. However much promised, economic ties do not bring about meaningful changes to oppressive, autocratic regimes.

Inspired by the legendary Roland TB-303, the B1 is a bargain-priced analogue acid and bass synth, featuring a built-in sequencer plus saturation and delay effects to bring your sound to life. Incredible value. Arena 2000 is a floor pedal delivering effects, amp and cab sims, and a massive bundle of functionality and connectivity, all of which make it a prime contender for guitarists shopping in the booming entry-level end of the market. So as we've already said the B1 is an analog mono synth and it takes its inspiration from the classic TB303. If you don't know what the 303 is, here is a one-minute history. While playing PATTERN (not in SONG MODE), press PLAY/STOP + REC/EDIT will generate a random pattern. There are 2 rules for the random pattern generator as showed below:

Then, the signal flows into a filter with cutoff, resonance and depth controls. On the modulation side, you get a simple decay envelope. Also similar. To enter SONG MODE, please ensure your ESSENTIAL B1 is not playing any PATTERN ( PLAY/STOP = STOP), then double press PATTERN button to enter SONG MODE.

Whenever there is any unsaved change in the sequence, the SAVE button will light up to indicate. When switch the PATTERN without saving, the SAVE button will flash for seconds to double confirm. So Donner just sent me this. It's a Donner B1 analog synth . It's a Monophonic 303-style synthesizer with a suggested retail price of 168 dollars.The V1.1.0 firmware update introduces the pivotal SONG MODE functionality. This feature enables musicians to link multiple modes together, expanding the sequencer length from the original 16 steps to a maximum of 256 steps. With SONG MODE, performers can freely switch between modes, facilitating longer and more intricate music compositions while enhancing musical continuity and development. Here, you can also find the Chinese brand Donner which has released many very affordable effect pedals in recent years. Already for less than 20€. I also took a closer look at some of them with synths ( Yellow Fall, Wave, Tutti Love, Vintaverb). Today came the news that Donner now also builds affordable synthesizers.I t’s not a hot SB news but a synth news worth reporting. OK, not exactly a synth in conventional terms but given that it's coming from Korg and is a sequel to its NTS-1 build-it-yourself synth, it's certainly worth a mention here, even if the centrepiece of the hardware isn’t a synth engine but a 4-channel oscilloscope…
