Installation notes

Battery
I recommend not moving anything out of the
'SuperAnalog808' folder. A good place to put this
folder would be the 'Battery 3 Library' folder.

EXS24
Put the '00-SuperAnalog808_EXS24 ' folder here:
User/user name/Library/Application Support/Logic/
Sampler Instruments.
If Logic is running make sure you 'Refresh Menu' in
EXS-24. Otherwise the '00 SuperAnalog808_EXS24'
folder won't show up. The sample folder can go
anywhere you want.

Kontakt
I recommend not moving anything out of the
'SuperAnalog808' folder. A good place to put this
folder could be the 'Kontakt 3 Library' or
'Kontakt 4 Library' folder.

Guru
Thanks for purchasing the I recommend not moving anything out of the
SuperAnalog808 'SuperAnalog808_Guru' folder. I also recommend
putting that folder into the 'GURUData' folder.

Trouble shooting and Tips and Tricks

Guru
Chromatic BD and Congas? Click on the chromatic button and whatever pad you have selected becomes
chromatic. However if you have Logic, Kontakt or Battery I would recommend you make use of those patches as
they will probably be easier to use... plus have more options...

Tip: Remember that most of the pads have multiple samples in Round Robin layers. So keep this in mind when
you are in the Pad Edit section.

Battery
1- If you get this error message then you will need to upgrade to the latest version of Battery 3: "This patch was
generated by a newer version of Kontakt. Please upgrade your copy to load the patch"
2- If Battery can't find the samples use the 'Browse folder' function to find the 'SuperAnalog808_Samples' folder
and then select it.

Tip: Remember that most of the drum sounds have multiple samples in Round Robin. So keep this in mind when
you want to edit a sound. I have color coded them to help you select all the samples in a Round Robin set.

Kontakt
1- If you get this error message then you will need to upgrade to the latest version of Kontakt 3: "This patch
was generated by a newer version of Kontakt. Please upgrade your copy to load the patch"
2- If Kontakt can't find the samples use the 'Browse folder' function to find the 'SuperAnalog808_Samples' folder
and then select it.

Tip: You may have noticed lots of bypassed modules when you click the 'Edit Button'. These are the modules
Battery uses. Remember to 'enable all groups' if you decide to try them out.

EXS24
Can't find the patches in EXS24? Make sure you have put the '00-SuperAnalog808_EXS24 ' folder here: User/
user name/Library/Application Support/Logic/Sampler Instruments.
Also use the 'Refresh Menu' function.

Tip: With the EXS24 full kit patches I was unable to use Round Robin and HH muting at the same time... so I
opted for muting. If you want Round Robin HH then use the '808_HH' patch in the 'Individual_Drum' folder. It is
a mono instrument so HH muting also works.

General tips for all formats

Because some of the 808 BD sounds naturally have a slight pitch bend, playing them in a very high register may
make them sound slightly out of tune. Attempting to tune them in the high register will make the low register
go out of tune.
