Surprised by this one. After all this Aira and Boutique crap this thing looks interesting! No direct sampling, but they sell it as a drum machine... It defintely has groovebox qualities. Best new Roland product for years. |

It's $699.99. Samples are loaded with a memory card, but you can't record samples directly into it. quote from an ad: it also includes detailed circuit-models of the 808, 606, 909, 707, 727 and even several modified versions. These are not soundalike sample packs or mere recordings of TR drum sounds; each machine is a detailed, down-to-the-circuit-model that sounds and behaves exactly like the original hardware. Apparently it adds a ton of features compared to the original. I def think it would be fun to use, but I'm not planning on buying it. Maybe someday in the second hand market. |

That pretty much covers it. At first it seemed like they added all the stuff that people complained about with the Korg EMX and ESX and stuck it all in a box, it seemed pretty sweet. The killer for me is only sampling (sorry, adding samples) with a SD card. I'm guessing this was done to keep the "new" SP-404A relevant. Because if you could do it all in the TR8S, who would by the 404A? Hopefully the price drops drastically on the original tr8 so I can pick one of those up to play with. |

That’s Roland for you. Two steps forward & 2 steps back. I know someone trying to sell their MPC 1000 for this. I have a feeling he might regret it? |

I have the feeling that you may be right ! Also with regard to the TR-8S.. apart from the hands on controls and variations of a dedicated unit, shouldn't Roland actually be focusing on making the sounds better than a sample pack you could have on more or less any sampler or computer? Just a casual thought... |

Sell an MPC 1000 for it, no way, I wouldn't. For sooooo many reasons. But I'm a big fan of MPCs. I love the workflow & they just..... fit me. Like sp's. But if he doesn't like his MPC & wants something COMPLETELY different than an MPC, I guess that makes sense. They're so different. |
