808, 909 Sounds In Eurorack With The Happy Nerding FX Aid

Happy Nerding shared these video demos of their FX Aid effects module running 808 and 909 drum synth algorithms.

Here’s what they have to say about the TR-909 drum voice emulations:

“All drum voices are enhanced with additional controls and ranges over Tune, Attack and Decay. Thus possible variations in drum sound are far beyond that of the original TR909.

Bass Drum produce standard emulation on the Left output, and its overdriven copy the Right output. Snare and Tom have low frequency punch added to the Right output. Rimshot produce standard emulation on the Left output, and a bit modified on the Right output. Both channels are in phase, so can be crossfaded/mixed for additional variations. Clap is stereo, so can be used with the extra space.

Trig input to be connected to the Left input.”

Here’s what they shared about the TR-808 drum voice emulations:

“All drum voices are enhanced with additional controls over Tune, Attack and Decay portions. Thus possible variations in drum sound are far beyond that of the original TR808.

Bass Drum, Rimshot, CowBell, Claves produce standard emulation on the Left output, and a bit modified on the Right output. Both channels are in phase, so can be crossfaded/mixed for additional variations.

Clap, Snare, Tom, Maracas, Cymbal and HiHat are stereo, so they can be used with extra space already in the drums itself.

Trig input to be connected to the Left input.”
