Analogue 808 Sounds
This is quite simply the last collection of 808 samples you will ever own! Containing 4599 24 Bit Wav samples (available in 44.1khz, 96khz or 192khz sample rates), with multiple input options available (clean, direct to tape and overdriven tape) and formatted for use in Ableton, Reason, Logic Pro and Kontakt 4, and Kontakt 5, we think it's about time you ditched those regurgitated, 2nd hand lo-fi samples that have been trawling the internet for years, and inject some real analogue goodness into your music!
PLAY AUDIO
Pristine Samples
Each part of the instrument was faithfully sampled over and over again to capture the true sound of the instrument. This allowed us to recreate all of the functions of the 808, as well as add extra features. Velocity mapping and layering combine to reproduce the subtleties that only a true analogue machine can create.
Custom Sequencer
As well as sampler patches for all main DAW's, we've created a custom sequencer for Kontakt 5, which retains the true feel of the original 808, plus a few simple extra functions that make it even more intuitive and easy to use. For example, our intelligent pattern script allows you to play stored patterns on the keyboard without going out of time or losing your place in the beat if played legato. Once you release the keys the pattern resets and you can retrigger.
Expert Recording
We spent a long time tuning and servicing this magnificent piece of hardware until it was as functional and clean as possible, before we set about the mammoth task of sampling every single feature multiple times. Initially we split the signal into 2, one going straight to digital at 192khz, and the other directly to a Studer analogue tape machine. We then sampled it all over again, this time through Chandler Germanium preamps (which allowed us to vary the input to the tape machine,) through the Studer, into a Neve desk and finally to disk. The result is 3 totally different sounding input stages that can be switched between, mixed and matched as desired.
Multiple Download Options
3 downloads are available, we suggest that you select 44.1khz unless you usually produce in 96khz or 192khz. All downloads contain Ableton Sampler, EXS24, Reason NN-XT, Kontakt 4 and custom Kontakt 5 instruments. To use the Kontakt 5 sequencer you must own a full version of Kontakt 5. Please make sure you have updated Kontakt to the latest version before opening.
