808 samples

Any suggestions on were to find the best 808 slide/portamento glide samples. Only because the MPC software or hardware doesn't have portamento/glide future

I made my 808 slides in Reason on the NNXT. Omnisphere 2 has glide l use thst when l use bass.
I Dont know where to buy already made gliding bass sounds. The ones l know are programmed.

This method is not the best but I think it sounds great for making the rolling pitch bending trap high hats.

Yeah there's plenty of ways to do this outside of the MPC world. But I'm specifically looking for ways to do it within the software or via hardware. I found a few but maybe there's a few different other ways do it more hands on :hmmm:

Maybe you can make the 808 a keygroup and use your Midi keyboard's pitch bend to glide the 808.

You can do it in hardware.

Use a long 808, make it a keygroup, and use the pitch bend on your MIDI Keyboard.

or

Use a Sine Wave and pitch bend it, when the 808 hits.

Because I have a TR-808.

You don’t need a sub bass sample at all, create a sinewave, manipulate it and use that.
