How to I get my 808's to sound like these? (Examples inside)

Would you be using 808 samples or making your own with sine waves on a synth?

If it is 808 samples, do you know how to put the 808 samples across the keyboard or how to automate pitchbend?
 
I have a 808 I made with the ES2 synth in logic. Guess I need to turn the portomento up? I do know how to put them across keys. I do know how to automate. Never automated a pitch bend though
 
Pitchbend Automation. You could even set the parameters to randomize pitching within the key of the song
 
how did the pitchbend automation work out? Ive tried a pitch envelope and glide but neither of them seem to get that hard "slide" to it if you know what i mean

Came out pretty good. Once I get home I'll see if I can post the sample.
 
interesting, it sounds good i have logic ill have to mess around with that a bit

Thanks. Real easy to do. Only tried it with the ES2. Can't figure it out then maybe I can help out. Heard some of your stuff on soundcloud. Maybe we can trade tips
