Virtual Instrument : Puremagnetik TB-303 Micropak - pcmusicPuremagnetik has recently released TeeBee, a collection of instruments and loops for Ableton Live, Kontakt and Logic sampled from the famous Roland TB-303 synthesizer.

Instead of using the DAW's built-in effects to emulate sounds, Puremagnetik has actually sampled the unique filter and envelope stages of the original TB-303. The TeeBee download includes 24-bit 96khz sample content and over 50 looped phrases styled after classic TB-303 articulations. For Ableton Live users, Puremagnetik has developed a version for Live 7 and a "light" version for Live 6.

Puremagnetik subscriptions start at $5.75 per month.
