This one appears to be making the rounds, so here you go. Be sure to click on products when you get there to see the other vintage synth drums listed. Samples on site.
"The Tape808
Not another 808 sample! Well actually it isn't... this is 407 samples taken from two 808's recorded into an Ampex 351 1/2" valve 2 track tape machine! That's not all... We also put the 808's through other vintage gear. Plus we recorded the 808's naked into a Metric Halo ULN-2 firewire audio card. Then we chose the best samples.
All 24 bit, and all phat analog goodness!
If you can't get a hold of a real 808 then this is as close as you can get in samples... Maybe even better than the having the real thing!"

I got this sample set a while ago, it is really good. Still doesn't compare to having the real thing I'm sure, but some really cool samples. They range from pretty dry to super tape saturated & overdriven. I have most of the libraries they offer including the tape 606 & 909, the vintage home keyboard drums (awesome) & the new Tape Drum Machines (I really like the LM-1 samples in this one.) They are certainly worth the $20 or so bucks. The only thing that sort of sucks is that they are all in 24bit format & that is it. I have to convert them to 16bit if I want to use them on my MPC1000.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Skip. I picked up the 808 and 909 packs recently. Pretty stellar samples with a lot of range.
