Roland's iconic TR-808 drum machine celebrated its 45th birthday last week, so we're marking the occasion with an 808-themed edition of SampleRadar.
We've shared several free 808 sample packs in the past, however, so this time around we had to think a little differently. We began with a simple premise: slam TR-808 and TR-909 drum machines (or samples thereof) through processing that bends them right out of shape, giving you an alternative take on the classic drum sounds you know and love.
