Look at it, and you know immediately what it is: the MC303 reminds you of those Roland beat boxes and other groovy devices impossible to come by but indispensable for the serious Dance musician. Yet its features are straight out o the late 1990s. It's got rhythms (Preset and User Patterns consisting of backings and cool grooves), it's got music (all those killer sounds the Dance scene is after), and it's as real-time as an electronic musical instrument can possibly get. Who could ask for anything more? Here's a device worth expensive setups consisting of turntables, a mixer, and various instruments.

The MC303 is an exciting new product that presents new creative approaches to dance music. Dance music, especially techno music, can now be approached creatively by anyone using the MC303. All that's required is just to combine any preset sounds and patterns from the huge selection offered, including sounds from vintage analog synthesizers. Realtime performance capability is emphasized, such as realtime Cutoff and Resonance controls to vary the sound as well as Arpeggio and Groove Quantize for adding a special feel or groove to the song. The self-contained MC303 can offer a level of performance which has been only available with huge set-ups including turntable, mixer, and various instruments. The MC303's integrated features provide advanced DJs with another innovative way of creating techno music.
