this week I was thinking about Rebirth RB-338 so I made a rebirth template in m8 and made a track with it.  still pretty new to the acid workflow but I've definitely listened to a lot.  this was like, a track of 808 kick and snare, a track of 808 toms, a track of 909 kick and snare, and a track of 909 hi hats.  then a saw 303 and a square 303.  pretty fun set of parameters to work with, highly recommend. 

Really loving the sound of this. Awesome beat and funky slippery bassline.

I’m in synth heaven, and everybody is fat as hell!!! Lush track!

Very good job with the template. Takes me back to the hours and hours wasted, um I meant spent, with RB-338.

Nitpick: the toms have somewhat clicky attack that reveals it's not an actual 808.

thank you!  I'm actually kind of new to the whole acid vibe, I've listened to it a lot but in the RB-388 it was kind of beyond me to make it work.

thank you! hell yeah let's fat-ize
I had a French roommate who would say the French version of that in relation to music it was Gros-something can't remember.

yeah! I encourage everyone to make their own RB-388 template.  or just watch some of the stuff on youtube with it, it's pretty amazing.

appreciate the feedback about the clicky toms - they are definitely samples and not a real 808 but perhaps that's something I could look into if I want to be more authentic with my patch
