01Overview

808 Box 3 is the third collection of 808 bass presets from Iceberg Audio, built for use inside The Sub. The pack includes thirteen named sub bass patches, each with its own character, so producers can pick a starting point for low end without building a sound from scratch. The developer positions the set as a way to add power to the bottom of a mix. Because it is an expansion for The Sub, it does not work as a standalone instrument and needs the full version of the host to load.

What Is Inside the 808 Box 3 Preset Set

The expansion ships thirteen sub bass presets, each named after a figure from Greek mythology: Apollo, Ares, Athena, Demeter, Eros, Hades, Hermes, Iris, Janus, Nemesis, Nike, Poseidon and Zeus. The names are the only identifiers listed for each patch, so the best way to compare them is to load each one and audition it against your track.

The presets are designed as 808-style sub bass sounds. Iceberg Audio describes the collection as its third box of 808s, following earlier volumes in the series, which makes it a natural follow-on for producers who already use the earlier packs.

Because every patch loads into The Sub, you can adjust pitch, envelope and tone with the synth's own controls after loading a preset.

Who Should Use 808 Box 3 and What You Need to Run It

808 Box 3 suits producers who work with 808 bass in hip hop, trap, R&B and related styles and want a set of ready-made sub sounds in a single pack. It is also useful for anyone who already owns The Sub and wants more presets to choose from without designing every bass from the start.

To use the pack, you need the full version of The Sub 1.2 or later. The expansion will not work within the trial version of The Sub. An internet connection is required for activation.

The pack is listed under the Instruments category and the Expansion Packs subcategory.
