![]() According to some testers (Thank you Ph WTF Crew!), this was too high for effective playback on pad controllers, so a second set of patches was created with more moderate velocity switching levels at 101. Initially, the switching threshold was set to a 125 velocity level. To address the 808 Accent sound, each combination of the drum tones required velocity switching, where the normal and accent hits could be easily accessed. ![]() The actual sampling part was pretty easy into Propellerhead Record, and I used my standard signal path for sampling: ADL D.I./Neve/UA-2192, from a Roland TR-808 bestowed to me from composer, Stuart Diamond The initial sampling resulted in over 500 individual audio files. This is probably overkill, but I approached this from an archival perspective and wanted a lot of detail. For example the bass drum required sampling 6 different tone settings, with a normal hit and accent hit at seven or eight different decay settings. This involved selectively sampling variations of each sound. ![]() The primary goal was to create a set of Kong patches that effectively simulate the classic 808. ![]() ![]() I thought this would be easy… Sample the Roland TR-808, load the files into the Reason 5 Kong Drum Designer… Bam… done! Nope, that definitely is not how things went down. ![]()
