Trying to understand Zynthian workflows

@vhs

I’m also curious if anyone has messed around with TR808/909 sound fonts and if anybody has worked out a TR8 style setup with tone control (ex, snap, decay on snare) or if there are any dedicated 808/909 plugins.

Well, it’s already done

TR808-fischer SFZ

Hi drum machine lovers! We have a new TR808 SFZ instrument based in the Fischer’s sample set. [tr808] The SFZ has been created by our @jlearman, that kindly accepted my proposal of writing a SFZ with all the sound controllers from the original device. He did it super fast and enlighten me about the way of writing good and maintainable SFZ files. Thanks a lot, @jlearman! I’ve learned a lot while adding the pan and level controllers. Indeed, i added some code to generate the zynthian YML file…
