Description
X-Eight 2 808 VST Plugin for PC & MAC
Get X-Eight 2 from VStor.me — a dedicated 808 bass VST built specifically for sub-bass design, with 1,200 presets and surgical controls for shaping tone, pitch movement, and filter character.
Most general-purpose synths can produce 808-style sounds, but their controls aren’t organized around how producers actually work with 808s. X-Eight 2 is designed from the ground up for this specific job — every parameter targets something relevant to sub-bass production: how the pitch slides, how the filter opens and closes, how the transient hits, and how the tail decays.
Key Features
- 1,200 presets — covering the full spectrum of 808 tones, pitches, and characters
- Filter Envelope — animates the filter over the duration of each hit for dynamic, evolving 808 tails
- Pitch LFO — modulates pitch for wobble, drift, or controlled vibrato on sustained notes
- Filter LFO — adds rhythmic filter movement independent of the envelope
- Modulation — adjustable depth from subtle vibrato to extreme pitch and filter manipulation
- Effects chain — sub-bass processing tools for mixing and editing 808 elements in context
Pair X-Eight 2 with the Cymatics Shockwave Bass Engine for additional 808 shaping and saturation options, or browse our full VST instruments collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is X-Eight 2 only for 808s or can it produce other bass sounds?
X-Eight 2 is designed primarily for 808-style sub-bass, but the filter envelope, LFO system, and modulation controls make it capable of producing synth bass, reese bass, and textured low-end sounds beyond traditional 808 hits. The 1,200 preset library covers a wide tonal range.
Can I use X-Eight 2 for live 808 slides in a MIDI piano roll?
Yes. X-Eight 2 supports pitch glide between notes, which produces the characteristic 808 slide when you overlap MIDI notes in your piano roll. Adjust the glide amount to control how fast or slow the pitch transitions between pitches.
What DAWs and formats does X-Eight 2 support?
X-Eight 2 runs as VST and AU on both PC and Mac, covering FL Studio, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, Studio One, and any other DAW that accepts those formats.
How does X-Eight 2 compare to using 808 samples?
Sample-based 808s give you a fixed sound you pitch in your sampler. X-Eight 2 synthesizes the 808 directly, which gives you real-time control over tone, filter character, and modulation that samples can’t provide. You can shape the decay tail, change the filter sweep, and add movement without resampling or layering.
