808 and 909 drum kits in Live 10 Suite

Post by carlcaulkett » Tue Oct 16, 2018 10:32 pm

I'm currently working through Thavius Beck's excellent tutorials on noiselab.io. In it he makes a lot of use of the "Kit 808-Classic" drum kit, but there doesn't appear to be a kit of that name in Live 10. I'm guessing he was using Live 9, but should the "Kit 808-Classic" be in Live 10, or is there a near equivalent? I've been substituting the "808 Code Kit" in its place and the seems to sound okay, but I'd be interested to hear what other people think. Similarly the "Kit 909-Classic" doesn't appear in Live 10, but the "909 Core-Kit" does.

I think it is part of the Drum Machines Pack.

Aha, Brilliant! Thanks very much. I can't see a way to get them listed in my main list of drum kits, but I can live with that! Now I can rest easy without that nagging feeling that I was missing out on a download!

Found this years after you posted (2023) after a search and just to say thankyou, I couldn't find that by going directly to the Ableton packs etc website - I'm on Version 11!

Trying to do an Alex Party-style track as some bedding music!
