A bass synth with exactly one job. Initial Audio builds it around three oscillators, a sampler and a dedicated sub, and pitches it as a way to stop recycling old 808 samples and build your own low end from scratch.
Source MusicRadar, 26 August 2021, on FINNEAS's Mix With The Masters breakdown of Billie Eilish's "Therefore I Am", reports he is a fan of "Initial Audio's 808 Studio bass synth". The article does not name the version, and Initial Audio ships both 808 Studio and 808 Studio 2, so this may refer to the earlier product. FINNEAS works in pop rather than trap.
Drums, loops and one-shots from WAVS creators that sit next to 808 Studio 2 in a session.
