Key Features

  • Supplies 200 original 808 bass one-shots across 20 organized sound categories, providing a broader palette than a single-style trap kit.
  • Moves from classic boomy 808s and clean subs to tight trap hits, falling pitch dives, and drill slides for different bass-line roles.
  • Includes tape-warm, Reese, wobble, and gated-stutter options for bass-heavy electronic styles beyond hip-hop.
  • Adds distorted, clipped, bitcrushed, wavefolded, FM, and ring-modulated material when a low end needs more harmonic character.
  • Uses 24-bit, 44.1 kHz mono WAV files that load in DAWs and hardware samplers without a dedicated instrument or plugin.
  • Labels every sound with its root note and groups types into folders to speed up key-aware browsing and layering.

Description

808 Bass Sample Pack is a 200-sound collection from SoundPacks creator Rob for building low-end parts from one-shot WAV files. It covers clean sub tones, classic booming 808s, tight trap hits, falling pitch dives, and drill-style slides, so it is better suited to programming and layering bass lines than to dropping in pre-made song loops.

The selection extends beyond familiar trap subs with tape-warm tones, Reese and wobble basses, gated stutters, and more aggressively processed options. Distorted, clipped, bitcrushed, wavefolded, FM, and ring-modulated sounds give producers material for heavier drum-and-bass, dubstep, and hybrid electronic arrangements as well as hip-hop beats.

Every sample is an original 24-bit, 44.1 kHz mono WAV and the pack is organized into 20 categories. Files are labelled with their root note, which makes it easier to find a starting point that matches a track before using a sampler or pitch control for variations.

The library works in any DAW or hardware sampler that loads WAV files, with no plugin format or operating-system dependency. Its breadth makes it a practical sketching set for producers who need both straightforward sub weight and more textured bass one-shots in the same folder structure.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 808 Bass Sample Pack include?

The pack contains 200 original 808 bass samples split across 20 categories. SoundPacks lists clean subs, boomy 808s, trap hits, drill slides, pitch dives, Reese and wobble sounds, plus multiple processed variations.

Are the samples tuned?

SoundPacks says every 808 is labelled with its root note. That gives you a useful starting point for choosing samples that fit a song key, while still leaving room for pitch adjustment in your sampler or DAW.

Which software can load this pack?

The files are 24-bit, 44.1 kHz mono WAVs, so they can be imported into DAWs and hardware samplers that support WAV playback. There is no separate plugin format or platform-specific installer to manage.

Is this only for trap production?

No. The pack includes trap and drill-focused 808s, but its Reese, wobble, tape, gated, and heavily processed bass categories also suit drum and bass, dubstep, house, pop, and other bass-led work.
