Absolutely love my TR-8S, plug into a TB-3 and you can almost imagine its 1993 again.

[brently]

Although the TR-8S is superior for live performance with its additional tracks and knobs, the TR-6S has the exact same sound and programming capabilities with just a little more menu diving. But given that it can be easily carried in a backpack and runs on batteries, I take it on flights with me and jam out making beats on the plane. Although, one time a flight attendant called the captain on me because she was afraid I was operating a bomb 🙂

I can't stop but see Herbie Hancock's 70's vocoder disco era look on Claudio!

[MikeRenouf]

The TR8S has been one of my best ever purchases. The workflow and limitations have made me more productive than I was on a DAW which had too many possibilities.

You had a great first jam with it 😁

[sonicmucus]

Claudio, the TR8s is an absolute beast, unlimited possibilities. Handy tip. Use it as a daw sequencer for your percussion tracks i.e. taiko and big cinema drums then fade the hardware track into the mix for multi textured layers... audio candy 🤤

Man. I can imagine playing with that for hours: Is it lunch time, yet? What? Morning already??!!

[tehbigshow]

Nice vid. I just got my TR8S a couple weeks ago and had a similar reaction to the unboxing. Played around with it for a few hours straight with a huge smile on my face. This thing is awesome!

[_OopsieDaisies]

your enthusiasm for music is so inspiring. this channel has really helped me in so many ways thanks all :)

[kbdwiz]

Had that same smile on my face like I was 8 yrs old when I got to jamming on my TR-6S....now I want the TR-8S eventually even though I'm still wrapping my head around the MC-101 which is another pint sized powerhouse!

[RandomNoiseMusic]

Finally got a second hand one almost a year ago, one of the best purchase I’ve ever made. Especially with recent delicious FM drums and probability update

[Acrimonious_Snake]

I absolutely love the mix of legacy and innovation in this machine. Stunning sound, a true Roland. Wish I had one... this thing is so inspiring and deep.

[alexandrosroussos]

Those TR boxes are unbeatable, especially with the latest firmware.

Wish they make the drivers audio-midi class compliant someday for use with my iPad.

[BDKabrini]

I had a choice between Drum Brute (loved it. Felt natural) Behringer RD8-9 (Looks Good But...)
I brought a Korg Volca Beats. Leaned some stuff. Then upgraded to a TR-08. OMG!
The TR-08 was the BEST LEARNING EXPERIENCE! Historically!!
AFter that I wanted more.
The 909 606 etc...
And that's when I got the TR8S.
It has everything in ONE.
Sounds AWESOME!
EASY TO UNDERSTAND AND VERY FUN TO USE.

[magicknight]

The TR-8 was my first drum machine (and still the only one I have!) and love it still.

[ninpomaniac]

Woah, I have the exact same setup - TR-8s, Jupiter XM and RC-505 atop a Rhodes Mark II suitcase. Validation ;)

[GolabKitsForTR-s]

Tr-8s with samples are a absolute beast.

[masslevel]

Thanks for the video! Also love the production value. Great editing and props to the camera person. And the guy behind the keys ;)

[luisvangogh]

Oh yeahhhh. I have a TR-8S and it's super fun, powerful and monstrous.

[-dikromo-]

I have fun to see that Doc Claudio have so much fun. Awesome.

[hovermotion]

The TR8-S was my second drum machine in a long time...utterly amazing value for money if you can get one in mint used condition .
So much fun to use...
