What's your favourite 303 "timbre" ?

Certainly it depends on a context and it is differently good, but nevertheless, what is closer to you? Saw or Square (:

Square for sure, which is a bit strange since on other synths I usually prefer the Sawtooth. For a while I even forgot that there's a waveform switch on my 303's, hehe.

Square, has a nice bottom end, I like the sharp attack with it too, sort of twangy.

General favourite waveform = Pulse, this is a thing I like about ABL Pro. I like the Pulse stting in between a saw sound and a square sound. A single osc can sound like 2 sometimes.

Square, with lots of accent. From the "evil" one of my 303:s. The other one is too mellow sounding.

when i was 16 i loved the saw but now it's all about the square. i don't like saws anymore.

square is a low mid range gift from the heavens. mmm.

i reckon saw has potential somewhere though. probably not by layering loads and chucking them through a sidechain compressor though. eurghh.
