That downward pitch movement at the start is part of the 808 feel. Keep it, while bringing the pitch the low end settles toward to the note you choose.
Designed to help your kick fit the key of your track. Adjustable A4 reference tuning lets you work beyond the standard 440 Hz.
With a short DECAY, the sound may end before it settles on the target pitch. Large pitch changes also affect the length and attack.

Before you dive in.
Are these sounds generated by the app?
Yes. These 12 notes, from C1 through B1, were rendered by the development engine, with A4 at 440 Hz, FINE at 0, DECAY at 90 and TONE at 0. All 12 use the same gain adjustment and are converted to 16-bit PCM for web playback. The sound and specifications may change before release.
Is this a plug-in?
We are developing a standalone Mac app. Preview a kick in the app, export a WAV, then use it in your DAW or sampler.
What format does it export?
The current development build exports 48 kHz mono, 32-bit float WAV files. Final export formats and system requirements will be published before release. Some hardware samplers require conversion to a different format.
Is it an exact hardware recreation?
This is independent software from jazcrafts, built around 808-style character and direct pitch selection. We do not promise an exact match to any particular hardware unit.
When can I buy it?
We will announce the release date and price here when they are ready. Sales and preorders are not open.
