About

Baby makes kicks, 808s and subs from scratch. Nothing is a sample, so every hit is tuned to the note you play and lasts as long as you need.

Play a hit as a one-shot, or turn on sustain and hold the note for a long 808 that releases when you let go. Mono mode lets overlapping notes slide into each other without retriggering, for gliding 808 lines.

Its 138 presets, in Kick, 808, Sub and Perc and grouped by genre, are levelled with their peaks under -1 dB, so they drop straight into a mix.
