The TR-808 Software Synthesizer is a detailed replica of the legendary TR-808—one of the most revered and sought-after electronic music instruments of all time. The plug-in version offers the sound and behavior of the original plus new features that virtually modify the hardware for more sound choices and faster, more fluid programming. Original TR-808 units sell for huge sums on the used market, and its sound is often imitated with sample-packs and knockoffs. But the 808 is a complex beast and far more than the sum of its parts. Using our proprietary Analog Circuit Behavior technology, we’ve painstakingly recreated the original analog circuits that are the essence of the TR-808’s sound. TR-808 plug-in sounds identical to the original—with all its nuance and detail—while adding some groundbreaking new features:

• Tuning and decay on each instrument and the ability to overdrive the internal circuitry update the 808 for modern sounds
• The classic 808 step sequencer expands with lanes for each sound, so you can program faster and more fluidly
• Each pattern has eight variations for evolving sequences that keep things interesting
• Drag and drop audio or MIDI patterns directly from the 808 into a project
• Adjustable flams, sub-steps, and soft hits create detailed fills and ratcheted sequences
• Each instrument has its own “last step” and shuffle settings so you can play with timing, experiment with complex meters, and dial in just the right groove
