VSTi Drum machine emulating vintage 808 sounds for live

VSTi Drum machine emulatingvintage 808 sounds for live and studio use.

VR-08 free is a Roland TR-808 emulation



VR-08 free is a Roland TR-808 emulation.

This VSTi is built around 2134 samples recorded at 44.1 khz from a vintage unit. Parameters are designed to take advantage of this huge library, to recreate the original sound of the TR-808 as close as possible.

The TS-808 is a software emulation of the Roland TR-808

The TS-808 is a software emulation of the Roland TR-808.

The TR-808 service notes provide full schematics for each voice.  I used them to make SPICE simulations of the circuits. I also analysed the best samples I could find (The Tape808, by Goldbaby), and tweaked the sounds until the waveforms and spectral content were as close as possible to the real thing.  Most of the voices have more parameters and a greater range than their hardware predecessor.

transistor drums is a 808 / 909 style drum machine

transistor drums is a 808 / 909 style drum machine.

It uses different kinds of sound generating: the kick drum works analogue-style, the snare drum works hybrid analogue-style/sampling, the clap is granular sampled and the rest of the drums are built with samples.

Velocity affects not only volume - it also has an influence on the EQ in the background, analog parameters and also (minimally) to the envelope. Also built in is a microtuning random generator which generates for every drum beat a tiny difference mainly on pitch but also on other parameters to generate a more sensitive pseudo-realistic sound. A patch random button is included to help in creative crisis.
