This is a simple operation This is a simple operation, but the sound changes in various ways. If you find it difficult to operate, don't hesitate to use the presets. Sublab not just hip-hop. It can be used for various genres of music. I use the 808 as a bass guitar for playing and singing.

Great plugins and customer service Great plugins. Go to for all my 808 and synth bass sound design. Great customer support and regular free updates. Recently had an issue with Sublab no longer being available in my DAWs. It kept crashing during validation after an update was installed. Didn’t really mind because I upgraded to xl but needed to access some older projects so I reached out to customer support. They responded timely with an installer download link that fixed my problem. One of the better experiences I’ve had with plug-in support!

Best 808 vst out I've owned around 9 808 style VST's.. I only own 2 now *(see below) SubLabXL and X-eight.. I use SublabXL 90% of the time. The UI is intuitive and it gives you alot more control over your sound design than any other 808 vst out there. There are great Youtube vids out there if you are on the fence. I feel that the vst increased my creativity exponentially. Great purchase that reaped dividends. *I still own the original Sublab I just don't count it since SubLabXL has all my original sounds migrated over.

Sublab and Sublab XL - Ultimate 808 and Bass Go To Great plugin that covers your bass needs. We’re talking 808’s, bass synths, effects and more - cutting edge! Plenty of room to manipulate sounds to fit your production. I use this plugin on about 90% of every song.

From purchasing the OG SubLab to… From purchasing the OG SubLab to upgrading to SubLabXL everything was a breeze. I've been using SubLab since launch and same with XL. I've never had issues with the plugin, no crashes, no phase issues, nada. The expansion packs are high quality sounds that you can use right out the gate, same with the stock presets. The UI is awesome, simple to use and easy on the eyes. It's these types of designs that inspire me to make sounds and music so I really appreciate it.
