Hello. I'm not sure why but when I use 808's in lmms by instruments end up sound rough or rumbly. I use a decliper on my master track. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

That sounds like a sound-devise issue
please post your:
* Name of your Operative System (Windows/ Linux/ Mac) And subtype (Home' 'Mint' '10.13' aso)
* lmms version, and the site where you got it from
* lmms sound device chosen

I checked out the links you shared, and I think I have an idea about your issue. When using 808s in LMMS, you must ensure that you're EQ-ing them properly. Try cutting out some low frequencies using a high-pass filter so they don't clash with your other instruments. Additionally, you could experiment with adjusting the attack and decay settings on your flute and other instruments to create more space for the 808s. Although I'm more into playing the bouzouki instrument, I have experience playing other instruments, so I hope that helps.
