Weight. Control. Authority.
808 Authority is a producer-focused 808 processing tool built to solve the low-end problems that slow down a session. Shape deeper subs, improve small-speaker translation, create room for the kick, tighten long tails and lock your bass firmly into the centre all through seven purpose-built controls.
Sound Examples
Complex Low-End Processing. Simplified.
Built for producers, not parameter hunting.
Powerful 808 processing normally means stacking EQ, saturation, stereo control, filtering, gain stages and parallel routing. 808 Authority brings those processes together behind musical controls designed around what you actually want to hear not the engineering required to create it.
Build the Foundation
Deep weight. Better translation. Tighter tails.
SUB FOCUS reinforces controlled low-end weight. TRANSLATE creates harmonic presence that helps an 808 speak through phones and smaller speakers. TAIL TIGHTEN firms up the decay so sustained bass remains focused instead of becoming loose or muddy.
Make the 808 Fit the Record
Control the space around your bass.
Use this space for KICK SPACE creates room for the kick without sacrificing the energy of the 808. MONO LOCK strengthens low-end stability by bringing the bass firmly toward the centre. OUTPUT MATCH provides controlled level compensation for more useful processed-versus-original comparisons.detailed information or context
Then Give It Authority.
The signature engine at the heart of 808 Authority.
The central AUTHORITY control blends in a dedicated parallel processing layer designed for additional density, low-end presence and impact. Turn it up when the 808 needs to stop sitting politely in the mix and start owning its position.
Seven Controls. One Clear Purpose.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
No pages of parameters. No rebuilding the same processing chain every session. Every control in 808 Authority has been designed around a specific musical result, allowing you to move quickly from raw 808 to controlled, translation-ready low end.
Your Low End. Under Authority.
Stop rebuilding the chain. Start shaping the sound.
Whether you're strengthening a weak sub, making an 808 translate outside the studio, creating space around a kick or adding the final layer of weight and presence, 808 Authority keeps the process fast, focused and musical.
'It is easy to handle and fits your 808 perfectly into the mix with the right amount of punch'
