    I got Rebirth working on Windows 10 a while back because I wanted to try the 303 implementation it had. Never really got to using it much yet, so this video definetly scratched that itch.
    Would love seeing you build a Din Sync RE-303 (the guts alone cost about £211 if they weren't out of stock currently) or a x0xb0x. They are the closest you can get to a original Roland TB-303 on a reasonable pricepoint and sound arguably better than the real deal as they use new components.
    I'd recommend seeking contact with the project's maintainers respectively if you are interested

    About screen refresh rate it's theoretically an easy fix: if the screen refresh rate is 60 hz the camera shutter speed should be set to 60.
    Also try syncing the camera frame rate at either 60 or 30 fps. (But maybe UA-cam fps is different so it gets messed up when uploading the video?)
    But you most likely already know about that …
