Introducing the BD808, part of our new series of drum modules that brings analog percussion into the modular synth world, instantly turning your system 
into a self-contained music machine. Its small sie, minimalist design, and modern production methods have allowed up to bring the world’s most famous 
bass drum sound generator back at a very low cost The real thing is here again.

The BD808 is the Roland TR-808’s Bass Drum circuit adapted for use in Eurorack format and tuned to sound like a machine that comes fresh off the 
original 80’s assembly line. The adaptation to modular format has allowed us to add some special features like independent Accent levels, a high-powered 
gain stage, dual-input pulse-shaper, and extended decay – all without compromising the signature sound of the TR-808.

A widely used technique with TR-808 machines is to run the drum sounds through outboard amplifiers to add gain and then pass the sound through just 
about anything to generate additional harmonics caused by clipping and distortion. In the BD808, we have already included this high-powered output gain 
stage capable of producing signals up to 20Vpp, extending from the original palette of sounds and allowing you to get an assorted array of harmonized 
bass drums ranging from sharp attacks to crushed tones using this simple yet effective technique! On the inputs, we have also designed a dual pulse-shaper 
circuit so you can trigger your BD808 with Trigger/Gate signals from step sequencers, clock dividers, or any other pulse/clock sources. This saves you the 
need to shape the pulses sent to the module and ensuring the same stable sound at its peak power, regardless of differences in your pulse source.
