This release comes packed with a number of exciting new synths for you to play with. We have a new hard-hitting kick drum :gabberkick for that gabber sound and a new vintage electric piano :rhodey synth. There are also 16 new percussive synths inspired by the infamous TR 808 drum synthesiser. All the synths come with many opts for you to play with to manipulate and change the default timbres.

There are also a number of minor improvements and bug fixes as detailed below.

Have fun and get your live coded 808 on!
