ye I'd use one of the fm machines to get a nice balance of even & odd harmonics bc modern 808s are all about the saturation & I find that a weak point of the Mono. Can try the method in the vid for the transient if ur going for a layered kick + 808 sound, but for straight 808s the normal lfo works fine bc it's not a massive pitch sweep. Mess with a fast filter sweep up on the start of each note to try & make a click, doesn't always work tho. Can also play around with using the drum sampler as a transient for consistency, either a little click or as a full on kick layer.
Deep tutorial thanks, I'm always bothered by my results using the pitch LFO
Any tips for making nice 808 basses?
