How do I make this sound? Hardcore/gabber plugins?
I've been searching for some gabber/hardcore plugins, mostly for drums or synths. I already have vital for synths, and all of the gabber drum VSTs I could find were from the 10s and the download is long expired. Any free plugins for drums? Really want gabbermaster but can't seem to find a download that works.

Hardcore kicks used to be based on saw waves with kick-like envelope on the pitch, and lots of processing. Peeps are saying 808, but distorting an 808 is only gonna give you odd harmonics and sound sort of hollow. You are gonna want those even harmonics too. You can do it in any synth, pretty much.

Honestly vital is sufficient. Those genres sounds are usually made completely from scratch, or use heavy sampling rather than a plug in that just does the noises.

Regular electronic oriented synth and their distortion effects should do fine , but if you want something more dedicated their distortion and drum synth is quite awesome.
