Microtonic, still my favorite

If you like specific drums from the 80s then maybe you could sample some of those sounds and manipulate them.

One of the best purchases I made in recent years is Visco:

You can load samples and it will resynthesize them and let you manipulate them. The possibilities with this are endless.

Hex Drum by Oblivion is very 80's.

I ended up picking VSDSX, Ephemere, Microtonic... If I could, I'd have picked up quite a few more, but I've been taking it easy lately, because the last time I loaded my DAW with plugins, I ended up not using everything.

Thanks, everyone.

you could try mine, there are you standard 808 and 909 sounds, and you can manipulate them further with the bitcrusher, filters, distortions etc.. I'll add some more 80's synth stuff later.

Looking for a very synthetic drum kit
