Key Features
Product Ref: 139950
Classic analog percussion brought into the modern era. The BD808 is a compact Eurorack module, with a TR-808 style bass drum circuit. The premium-grade analog circuitry has been fine-tuned to deliver the best possible sound, staying true to the original.
808 drums were made famous in the 80s, providing the percussion for a wide range of popular music. It was a staple in the electronic music world, thanks to its booming sound and ability to customise the tonality. The expanded and versatile circuitry provides a wider tonal palette, allowing you to generate everything from sharp attacks to crushed tones.
The BD808 provides you with expanded functionality, building on the original TR-808 style circuit, providing new and exciting features. One of the most prominent new features is the ability to set independent Accent levels. This allows you to fine-tune your drum, making it perfect for customising your sound.
Back in the day, a popular way to process the 808 circuit was to run it through outboard amplifier, adding gain so you generate additional harmonics for a more unique and powerful sound. With the BD808, this process has been made easier than ever. The high-powered output gain stage is capable of producing signals up to 20Vpp, providing a vast tonal palette.
