Former 808 owner here, the UI is pretty good, and well done. The sound is, well not an 808. I know this is more of a look what can be done sorta project, and maybe 100% fidelity wasnt your goal, but I would almost prefer the rebirth approach to emulating an 808 by using samples at various settings to match the knob values. In some ways I think you made a decent CR-8000 emulation with the sounds(the cowbell and hat remind me of that)
Anyway, dont want to take away from what was obviously a lot of work. I just want it to sound more like an 808 :)
- vincentriemer 10y agoThanks for the feedback. My goal for this project was to make a recreation (maybe homage is a better word) completely in the browser. Also I was of the opinion that if I made this sample based the page size would skyrocket and I don't really see people wanting to download an entire 808 sample library just to fool around in a website.
- lubesGordi 10y agoI would wait a few seconds to load the 20MB or so for the samples. Maybe this would work: http://trashaudio.com/2010/01/roland-tr-808-sample-pack/ http://trashaudio.com/2010/01/roland-tr-808-sample-pack/ I'd expect something like this to have some heft.
