Introduction

The TB-03 is a sound module that uses cutting-edge modeling technology to faithfully model the Roland TB-303 which went on sale in 1982. In addition to its compact size, it allows battery-powered operation and contains a small speaker. You’ll be able to enjoy full-fledged TB-303 sound anywhere.

*The TB-03 can operate on batteries or on USB bus power. If you are using batteries, insert four AA batteries, making sure that the batteries are oriented correctly.

*If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and fluid leakage. Make sure that you carefully observe all of the items related to batteries that are listed in “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (leaflet “USING THE UNIT SAFELY”).

*When turning the unit over, be careful so as to protect the buttons and knobs from damage. Also, handle the unit carefully; do not drop it.

*When the batteries run low, the “BT.LO” blinks in the display. Replace the battery as soon as possible.

Using the TB-03 in conjunction with the DK-01 Boutique Dock (accessory)

& For installation/removal/angle adjustment, refer to the DK-01’s Owner’s Manual.

Playing the TB-03 via MIDI or USB

You can also play the TB-03 via MIDI or USB. For details, refer to “Connecting Your Equipment.”

Connecting Your Equipment

*To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.

A B C D E F

J

G H I

A Micro USB (O) port

Use a commercially available USB 2.0 cable (A-microB) to connect this port to your computer.

It can be used to transfer USB MIDI and USB audio data. You must install

the USB driver when connecting the TB-03 to your computer. Download the USB driver from the Roland website. For details, refer to Readme.htm which is included in the download.

& http://www.roland.com/support/

*Do not use a micro USB cable that is designed only for charging a device. Charge-only cables cannot transmit data.

B[VOLUME] knob

CPHONES jack

Connect headphones (sold separately) here.

D OUTPUT jack

Connect this jack to your amp or monitor speakers.

E MIX IN jack

This is the audio input jack. Sound from the connected device is output from the OUTPUT jack and PHONES jack.

F MIDI connectors

You can synchronize the TB-03 with other MIDI device by using a commercially available MIDI cable to make connections.

G TRIGGER IN jack *1

You can use a mini-plug (mono) cable to connect this to a device that’s equipped with a TRIGGER OUT jack (such as the TR-09). If a plug is inserted into this jack, the TB-03 is disconnected from its internal clock, so that its steps advance each time a trigger pulse is received at this jack.

H CV OUTPUT jack *1

You can use a mini-plug (mono) cable to connect this jack to an analog synthesizer that’s equipped with CV/ GATE input jacks.

The pitch that is played by the TB-03 is output from this jack without change. The pitch is output in the range of -1 V–+7 V. This supports OCT/V (Hz/V is not supported).

I GATE OUTPUT jack *1

This jack outputs note-on/off signals. During note-on, +12 V is output.

*1 Do not use a “stereo mini-plug” cable; it won’t work correctly.

Turning the Power On

J [POWER] switch

This turns the power on/off.

*After you’ve made connections correctly, be sure to turn on the power in the order of the TB-03 first, and then the connected system. Powering-on in the incorrect order may cause malfunctions or damage. When turning the power off, power-off the connected system first, and then the TB-03.

*Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

English

In order to use this device correctly, please carefully read “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (the “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” leaflet) before use.

 

After reading, keep these instructions at hand for immediate reference.

Pattern Playback

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What are patterns and tracks?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A “pattern” is performance data that divides a measure into 16 steps.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The TB-03 has 96 “patterns” and seven “tracks” in which patterns can be arranged.

1. Turn the 12 [MODE] knob to set to “PATTERN PLAY.”

Selecting a pattern

1. Use the 11 [PATT. GROUP] knob to select a pattern group (I–IV).

Pattern group “I” is selected regardless of whether you select numbers 1 or 2.

2. Use the 23 24 PATT. SECTION [A][B] buttons to select a pattern section (A, B, C).

You can press the [A] and [B] buttons simultaneously to select C (both [A] and

[B] are lit).

3.Use the 19 PATTERN [1]–[8] buttons to select a pattern.

Playing patterns consecutively

When selecting a pattern, you can select multiple patterns by pressing two buttons at the same time. The patterns you’ve selected will play consecutively. The currently-playing pattern blinks.

Playing a pattern

1. Press the 16 [RUN/STOP] button to play/stop a pattern.

Pattern transpose

1. Hold down the 18 [PITCH MODE] button and then press the 19 keyboard button.

Setting the tempo

In pattern play mode, the display shows the tempo.

You can press the 13 [TEMPO] button to see the two digits of the tempo value below the decimal point. You can use the 14 [VALUE] knob to adjust the tempo.

Setting the shuffle

If you long-press the 13 [TEMPO] button, the shuffle value is displayed.
