When distorting the body, you also get unwanted high harmonics, which the filter automation can tame to taste. Often itвЂ™s good to distort and add harmonics, and then use a filter such as OneKnob Filter and automate it so that a steep low-pass filter cuts the high frequencies and deadens them in the first 15-20 milliseconds after the transient hits. I usually process the body and transient separately, then fade them into each other and compress. Another plugin that can help you add harmonics and shape the tone is Renaissance Bass. You can create or exaggerate these harmonics using distortion but a more precise way to do it is to use the Cobalt Saphira harmonics shaping plugin to enhance odd and even harmonics, which can help shape the tone of the body of an 808. Tracks that sound heavy in a studio or club can sound empty on the radio, so sometimes itвЂ™s necessary to add 3 rd- or even higher-order harmonics using these techniques, to give the listener the impression of bass and help cement the key of the track.Дў nd- and 3 rd-order harmonics are what give the 808 presence. I then compress this using a CLA-2A compressor, especially when using the 808 as a kick drum.ДЁ08 mixing is particularly important for the radio. I often replace the transient audio with a piece of pink noise IвЂ™ve made in a synth. Harmonics in 808s are really important, as are the pitch envelope and transients. TheyвЂ™re great for everything from straight up pop to hip hop, trap, drum & bass, even house music. I love 808s, both as kick drums and for creating bass lines.
