In this edition of Classic Gear on a Budget, we look at VST emulators of classic Roland pieces including the 808, 909, 303, and Juno 60, including offerings from D16, AudioRealism, Puremagnetik, Samplephonics and TAL. In our on classic gear emulation, we’ve focused exclusively on hardware alternatives to the pieces of gear that helped shape electronic music as we know it. Often, software VSTs are more practical because of their affordability, easy incorporation into your DAW, and of course lack of physical footprint. On the other hand, many purists feel they lack the real sound and grit of analog (or the very least electrical) circuitry that only hardware provides. Regardless of which approach is better, software VST emulators are a good, cheap way to get familiar with the workflow and sound of those legendary pieces. That way, when (not if, but when) you decide to drop $4,000 on a, you’ll know it like the back of your hand. D16 is a great company from Poland that earned a few spots on this list.

They make accurate sounding VST versions of a wealth of classic equipment with intuitive interfaces inspired by the originals. Nepheton was one of their first creations and is a faithful sounding recreation of the. This VST differs from many other 808 emulators in that it synthesizes all sounds so there’s no sample-work here. The software looks and functions very similarly to the original so if you’re familiar at all with the workflow of an 808, you should be able to jump right in.

It features a built-in x0x-style sequencer and you can make Nepheton the master clock for your DAW. Nepheton also features several presets and is very intuitive and easy to edit. The only thing negative about this VST is the clap sounds a bit thin when compared to the original 808. Nepheton sells for $125 USD and is available on the AudioRealism’s ADM is one of the more versatile VSTs on this roundup, being a, and emulator in one.

ADM contains 34 total sounds, 25 of which are synthesized and 9 of which are samples. Also certain drum hits have extended parameters from the originals, like the attack and tuning of the 606 kick drum. Parameter Locks are found on Elektron devices and you can assign each step in the sequencer to have independent parameter settings. For example, you could tell the “mangle” effect, a type of distortion, to only affect certain steps in the sequence. ADM goes for €95 on AudioRealism’s.

Samplephonics 808 is perhaps the best sample-based option for emulating the. The package requires a sample host like Kontakt but it’s more than just sample playback, it features a ton of parameters so you can get sounds faithful to the original. The main package contains 4599 24 Bit Wav samples with multiple playback options including clean, direct to tape and overdriven tape. The samples were created using based using analog equipment including Chandler Germanium preamps, a Studer analog tape machine and a Neve desk.

Samplephonics 808 also has a similar interface and workflow to the TR-808, with the signature built-in sequencer. Drumazon is one of the only 909 VST emulators out there and it happens to be pretty faithful in recreating what made the 909 special. Like the, Drumazon uses a hybrid sample and synthesis method of sound production; some sounds are samples, some are synthesized. It naturally shares much of the functionality of D16′s Nepheton including the step sequencer, flexible output routing and Roland-inspired UI. It also includes Roland-inspired shuffle and flam functions like the real thing.

Drumazon also allows you to edit sound parameters, like tuning and decay, beyond what the original 909 allowed. Drumazon is available for $125 at Bassline 2 from Audiorealism is one of the original and VST emulators of the. The latest version, released in 2007 includes an updated more realistic filter, cleaner bass tone, and a more consistent built-in distortion. Perhaps most interestingly about the Bassline 2 is an included feature called Pattern Analyzer that has the ability to analyze.wav files and generate bassline patterns from the audio. Kind of like Ableton’s Audio to Midi feature but released in 2007. Judging from the audio clips on AudioRealism’s website, the feature works well and is worth checking out. Bassline 2 is available on the AudioRealism for €95.

From Puremagnetik is a great sample-based option for Ableton Live, Kontakt or Logic. It very tightly integrated with Ableton Live in Sampler and includes macro controls to faithfully recreate the sound of the 303. Instead of relying on your DAW’s filter and envelope, Puremagnetik sampled the 303 at different filter and envelope stages to get a more authentic sound. The package also comes with looped phrases styled after classic 303 patterns to get those creative juices flowing. It’s also only $15 on their so it’s great for the budget conscious and worth a shot for a minimal investment. Our favorite free VST developers, TAL offer another great piece of software with This polyphonic virtual analog VST sounds remarkably close to the original synthesizer on which it’s modeled. It’s works really well with MIDI, has 20 Juno-style presets and a 24 dB low-pass filter modeled after the original.

It also has the cool retro look of the Juno 60, you have to love those primary colors. TAL offers a stand-alone chorus that emulates the Juno 60 chorus as well. Do you have a favorite classic gear VST emulator that we didn’t include? Sound off in the comments below!

I´ve tried almost any drum synth so. And i wont talk about drum machine emulations (tr808 etc) My tips: Commercial: Waldorf attack - swiss army knife.

Waldorf will release reworked version in week i think. I love it and i prefer its workflow to Drumatic. Drumatic 4 - swiss army knife too. Try the demo, it isnt limited too much. Microtonic - it has its sound, sequencer and it is more funky than drumatic 4 but not so universal imho.

Tattoo - very simple, nice sounding drum synth. But if you dont like its sound you wont get any different;. Tremor - cpu hungry and expensive.

It's kind of only capable to produce dance kicks. Also IMO you can generate a kick with almost every synth + eq. If you sample the result, it will be a 100% stable kick. Sure, it's best suited for EDM.

That works for me but it might not be for everyone of course - it depends on what type of drums you're looking for. And while it's mainly used for making kicks, it's also good for claps and snares (with some minor tweaking). I guess you could generate kicks in most synths but that would take some time and effort.
