If you're new here, my name is Andrew Huang and I'm a musician who works with many genres and many instruments - and I've also made music with many things that aren't instruments like balloons, pants, water, and dentist equipment. For more info visit my website: andrewhuang.com

Thanks for watching today and a big hug to you if you share this video with someone!
the clap at the beginning shouldve been an 808 lol
AAGGGHHH HOW DID I MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY
Edit quick lmao
@@andrewhuang repost the video!! Repost it!!
I am the cool kid from Germany making videos for the USA and the rest of the world. I will make your day so don't say nay to my videos today, dear lio
ANDREW HUANG or at least an 808 clap lol
the video is 8:08 minutes long as well.. wow, andrew.
Just about to comment that. The boy's got skillz
lol bass drum number
8:09*
and uploaded on August 8th (8/08)
Kyu Akii well obviously 🙄
It’s so like Andrew to say “Here’s how to make an 808” and then do the most unconventional, roundabout method possible.
Legit just sample it
@@artvandelay3282 what if you want to feel special and brag about how you made an 808 out of a high hat? Huh? What would you do then?
I bet you also use the chord finder plugins as a life line too lmao
@@spacetaco048 bruh what? It’s a joke about how people call any bass sound an 808.
Videos “how to make killer 808’s, 808’s that CRUSH YOUR BONES”
An 808 is a drum machine
For the record I despise chord finders and these goddamn “midi chord packs”
@@artvandelay3282 not today it’s not. 808 has a different meaning now and Andrew explained that in the video
"If you don't have $70 and you don't have $40..." sounds about right
Proceeds to turn a high hat into an 808! Why didn't i think of that🤦♂️
...yeah, we are talking about musicians. This is why we buy beer for the band (which should be free).
Actually I found the stock plugin way far more interesting as just using a vst for that. you have so much more control about all that and especially you can do this with push or another midi controller
dont have $70 but has ableton live!!
808 day? automatically my favourite day.
oof
wait until 909 though
808 day is my birthday lmao
fax yo
@@timothybarfield802 mine too
Andrew: hear this 808.
My cellphone: ..........
that's what upper harmonics are for!
@@norwardradtke1361 I like your thinking!
@@uniworkhorse s a t u r a t e
It was released in 1980, discontinued in 1984 due to poor sales. It was then picked up for cheap in pawn shops and became a cult classic. Really interesting history surrounding the 808, what an instrument
"If you just wanna throw money at the screen and be done with it.." -Every producer ever
Hence why 90% of producers should be acknowledged as “songwriters”, not producers
Maybe nowadays but not back in the day
Jeremy Hand should not be acknowledged 😜
whackamole 😢
@@lordgeronimo72 Not you personally dude! As in money throwers should not be 😬
Thats the most none 808 sound ever. Fav drum machine!
There's three ways a normal people would read 808's :
- Eight Hundred and Eight
- Eight Zero Eight
- Eight o Eight
or if you're me at 10 years old: BOB O'CLOCK
only sane people call it eight o eight, who says eight-hundred eight???
Tranquility in French the say “huit cent huit” which means “eight hundred eight” in English
@@tortoiseOThighway touche
Eighty & Eight
It is amazing to think such a great piece of hardware came out so long ago and is still "Kicking":) Happy 40th bday TR808 EDIT: Also it is a pity the video is one second too long:(
only on android app. on computer it is 8:08
Shane Jewell well it was 8:09 on my pc but if you saw Andrews tweet, he edit the video to fix it
8:09 for me
Peter Roland, Samuel Korg, John Yamaha
I didn't see that lol
I remember making 808 kicks and toms with 3 elements - 1 osc (sine or triangle wave) & 2 envelopes (one for pitch) on a really simple modular synth sample maker in the mid 90's - It's name escapes me at the minute.
There was violent tweeter nightmare in the first few attempts (think Kraftwerk blips) generating the samples on a 66Mhz CPU PC. This stopped when I dialled the pitch env way down. After that it was beef and scruff the sound up a bit and bingo!
S950 AKAI.
Damn you boomers had it tough back in the day. Can’t imagine having to make drums from scratch lmfao.
video length will show 8:09 in the thumbnail for some people because youtube is screwy like that
but it shows 8:08 on the actual timeline for me, you did it Andrew
Thanks for explaining the modern use of the term "808". Old folk like me get confused when people talk about an "808" as anything other than the drum machine sounds.
@@AlexAlcyone it's not misused, language just changes and evolves over time
3:05 So this is how 2020 sound like....
YESSSS! ROFL!!!
I've learn more in this video about the stock plugins than most of the "stock pluggins tutorial" type of video!
hell yeah, new andrew vid!
I usually don’t watch Bestmaking Videos from people using other DAW‘s than the one that I use but your videos are really educational. U can learn so much
Should’ve made an 808 using sounds from walking with the shoes
That’s a cool sounding kick drum !
You probably already know this, but an actual 808 kick drum is created by a resonant low pass filter being driven into self oscillation.
Triggered by an electronic pulse and modulated by envelopes, a deep sine wave is produced with a variable attack and and sustain length.
The sound is created by the filter being used as an oscillator, not a vco or sample.
When he uploads my day Is then perfect
Thank you Andrew.Happy 808 day!
He literally waited to make a tutorial about 808 on August 8. That's epic 😂
You know how I make 808 sounds. I bought a Roland TR-808!!💪🏻😎👍🏻
This video about 808s is 8:08 long and was posted on 8/08
Some inception shit going on here lmao
That's... kind of the entire point.
They will limit it to 808 comments as well...
Its 8:09
Michael White on phones it is 1 sec longer idk y
@@interestedbystander196 wrong
Anyone else realize the Sublab demo sound was the 808 in Sparkle Mountain?
Wish he would have talked about mixing 808’s. Making them isn’t all that difficult. Making them sound clean in a mix is another story.
You have to build all your elements around it if you want it clean, for example dont go for sounds that are going to resonating where the 808s overtones are
Honestly it's really just about high passing everything so that basically the only thing taking up the lowend of the mix is your 808
L I C K M Y N U T S
Frequency separation and sidechaining with bass, no?
Not necessarily tho
I love how the video is also 8:08 in length. Bless
fam did you really purposely make this video 8mins and 8 seconds, that's god tier content right there, lol
Sublab is an amazing plugin! It works for house basses and subs.
"OK ! I'm done with Weird Gear !
Let me introduce the Weird Give Away !"
* Weird Give Away jingle *
Genius, That Video Streched my Horizon and Crativity into infinity. Nice THX
Perfect timing with this one! Was just getting into 808’s. Also, I’ve been wanting to mention that I’d be interested in a video on reggae/dub. Would be killer if you made a video and went over the theory, techniques, rhythms and or sounds used. For instance: “the bubble” on keys or the “dub” baseline. I don’t believe any of the elements are very technically challenging but you could spice it up by explaining how all the elements fit so well together to create the overall mix/ umami.
OMG hahaha bro I just found about da level of details u can adjust with Simpler n now u turn a hihat into an 808 it just bmm good! THANK U ANDREW HUANG!!!
Andrew: “how to make the best 808”
Me, watching from my phone: haha yes..
YES! I needed this video so badly rn!
Andrew: 808 day, auguest 8
me: cries in 8/8/2020
Why not 08/08/2020. I mean, it's far from perfect, but yeah.
@@fratzentoaster idk, my pc was setup that way maybe
Video is 8:08
@@charliedalencour5141 8:09
LOL 808.
Thanks for the material for my next video 😜
Wow, the video length is one off from 8:08
It actually is 8:08, but youtube sucks so it says 8:09
love ur vids andrew
you should hit up Alex Tumay to talk 808s
Got a few good tips out of this video! Thanks!
1. That sub vst looks awesome! And it's still only $40. Looks like a good solution for someone like me always struggling to get the bass to sit correctly in the mix on all notes. Generally looks fun to use too!
2. Using the dang tuner to tune the sample after messing with it. OMG. Why was I never doing this before?! I always just use the tuner for acoustic instruments. Whenever I'm doing electronic, I just face the fact" that I will have to do some of the composing by ear and that the notes might be a lie. hahaha, what a concept! Duh! I needed that.
3. Flatten in Live. I guess that is new? Back in the day I would use the resample "channel" to record on a separate track. Kind of slow. Seems like they made that a lot easier to do. I'll have to read up on that.
6:33 *cue Wolves - Kanye West intro*
Damn
OoooooooOoooooOOOOOOOoooooooOoooOoooo
You are The Best you inspire me for my own music channel ❤️
Damn being a men's size 13 in shoes is really a rough life out here
bro same
As a size 16, I get you.
gee guys
@zombiesrock61 Is that something about technology for virgins?
Or is it a rather ironic indicator of the quality of education one can expect from Virginia Tech?
as a size 24 i can totally agree
god damn. When he put on that Eq Three he brought my studio monitors sub bass to life. Not many youtube videos do this.
I really wanna enter the giveaway but I really don’t need these shoes
The amount of detail in this is just BVROOOOOMMM. Thanks Andrew!!

Trap 808s are just bass with a click, lol
@@rhealastname266 well yes but actually no
@@evilgirl-1 nAnI?
😂
the video being 8:08 is such a good touch. good work Mr. Huang!
i was listening to wolves by kanye before watching this video
it fit too perfectly
Man i like your vids the way you matched the ending screen is just a plus on the technical side.
Is there something special today? First splice posted about 808 and now Andrew.looks like Im missing something out....
Edit: OK found out . Todays 808 day
You didn't watch the first 8 seconds of this video?
@@skatechatham yah its in the first 8.08 seconds
@@skatechatham nah bro just opened the video and wrote the comment .
great explanation of drum envelopes related between real life and percussion synthesis, helped me comprehend the three envelopes better (amplitude, pitch, cutoff)
Me: Spends a week tweaking an 808 I made in Massive.
Andrew: Makes an 808 from a hihat.
"A far cry from what we now consider 808's which is like (808)"this wrote me off 🤣Nice tutorial man!
*high fives the screen*
I do it back every time
8:08 I was waiting for Adam Neely to say BASSSSS
2:20
Actually, I have 70$ but I don't have 40$. 🤭💸
Vie De Miel if you have 70 you have 40.
enigma No shit Sherlock. It’s, still, a stupid joke.
Luominen R damn you must have a lot of friends
minusign I do, but i don’t see how that’s got anything to do with anything.
enigma Well you don’t have to write a paragraph about it. But oh shoot, you still did.
Great vid Andrew thanks for the info 👏👏👏
*Hello there!*
@Drawan *Back away! I will deal with this Jedi slime, myself...*
@Drawan *Attack Kenobi...*
(I think we mixed it up but whatever)
andrew has gotta be one of the smartest and most hard-working guys i know... like damn.
I just purchased Sublab, and bro it is bangin'!!!!
I love working with Simpler but I tend to gravitate toward Operator when making basses because I can add harmonics like we just saw in SubLab. Also I love how the bottoms of those shoes look like MIDI notes.
I forgot I had a tab open to this video. with my studio headphones at full blast I was closing the tabs I didn't need open any more and nearly had a heart attack as I hear "HEY IT"S ANDREW HUANG!!" I guess it's my fault for having good headphones. Great video, but also I'm going to have nightmares of me being chased by him, yelling "hey it's andrew Huang!" lol.
Thank you for the video man
Method 2 was so dope, thanks for the inspiration as always! Never thought of making an 808 like that 🤯
Wow! I love how you cooked up that 808! Really brings me back to those production challenge days...
MY GUYS FIT DOE STRAIGHT HEAT
love you Andrew!!
man, this is very awesome, congratulations for the video!!!!
Bad ass dude! One of the best demo's I have seen in a while.
if anyone wants to know what Andrews monthly classes are like. This video is exactly like them. Easy steps to follow to achieve a goal. :)
The duration of this video is on point
This just played next in my que, it's 8/8/22 happy 808 Day!
Always learning new things with you:)
Wow I'm getting Sublab because of this! And I must try to make my own now, Thanks Andrew!
Haha that's such a weird way of making an 808. I don't think I would have ever thought of that. You can use Operator and use I think a square wave and noise for the hit and sin for the tail.. something like that. It is kind of more satisfying to do it that way IMO because it teaches me a lot about sound design.
Bass guitar long low note is AMAZING for custom 808!
Really appreciate this video, Andrew! I'm in the Learn Monthly class right now and looking for a way to clean up my low-ends.
I wear a 9.5, I like them shoes and is 808 day! Shared your video on Facebook
I love listenning to you. Your channel is great, funny and informative 🏆
the date of the video... the lengh of it .. its perfect
Super helpful vid, thanks so much, been wondering how to make my own 808s for awhile
You know what's crazy I'm actually in your classes and I used sublabs in my first song and I was reccomending this program to people. It's crazy how you made a video about this right when I used it 😭 hope you hear my song in your class!
This will change my life ! Thank you very much !
I've learned so much production tricks from your videos. Thank you very much!
I use soundfonts. SGM-V2 has an 808 library that's pretty classic.
Thanks for matching the volume with and without the comp! Nice video :)
dude u are great!! been looking for a video like this thanks!!
Never regret subscribing to this guy
Thanks for these extremely helpful videos!
this helped so much
Thumbs up! Already looking forward to 909 day.
YES the video i was waiting for
thanks for the sound design in this, actually huge!
Thanks for the fun lesson. Your like a musical scientist. Love you Andrew!
I don't know what any of this stuff means but I love watching Andrew explain it.
i use fl studio, so i was gonna look up an fl specific tutorial, but its andrew huang, so i gotta watch this
