Roland TR-8S Rhythm Performer

Introducing the Roland AIRA TR-8S: Rhythm Performer Meets Sound Designer.

The performance-tuned TR-8S combines stereo sample playback with iconic Roland TR- drum sounds and deep editing parameters to allow you to craft your dream drum kits. New sequencer, motion-recording, and increased variations, effects, and outputs are some of the features that have evolved the TR- drum machine to set a new standard in sound design and live performance.
Performance by Maika Loubté.

I'm wondering if like the Electribe you can have song parts to switch it up, build actual songs. Also, how large is the allowable sample size (time / compression)? Can effects be applied to samples? Cheers.

Maika Loubté is a real talent, remember her name!!

Somebody knows what's that mini sinth ? Next to the TR 85 ?

[TheGoodDo]

Can I need any software to run this machine or simple plug and play??

[nicolazanata]

[goztbreaka]

Can I pay someone to show me how to use my TR8S

I'm trying to download the Windows Driver (Not Firmware)
I downloaded the file from Roland/Support and there no driver in the file. Just a bunch of "Read Me" files.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Sounds one of the music that would be played in a clothing store

[martin_kuchar]

Dear Roland, create detailed tutorial how to make this song and you will boost your sales to the stars..

[hearmenow]

No global pitch control is a deal breaker. How can you overlook that? Shocking.

The 808 Kick Drum on these things sounds tiny and anemic compared to the real TR-808 drum machine. It's like they didn't take actual 808 emulation into consideration when these were made.
