Thank you very much for the video tutorial, I've bought the TR-8 recently and I'm producing my tracks with it. I've learned some tips with this video that I didn't know how to do. And it is fantastic. Thanks a lot!!

This is an EXCELLENT video. Great overview of the essential drum sounds and programming features. A cool beginner TR 8S tutorial. Thanks again. 🔥

I got one of these puppy's and have searched all over KZread this video is easily the most effective and most helpful top work my friend thanks for the help and it has helped me massively

I bought this product on launch day and have not used it because of all the menu based settings. I'm old school and use all external gear (no computers) because I like to tweak with knobs and such. After watching this video, I feel less intimidated with the tr8. Your explanation of the basic settings really were easy for my limited brain to pick up. I feel empowered now. This is simple, easy to remember, and is one of the the better reviews on this item. Bravo and Cheers mate!

@@colliemon wassup mate! i sold all my aira gear years ago. :) i still use external gear and don't use computers for recording.

Love those beats,especially when you play the volca keys blends so nice.

Just got this product and really appreciate this tutorial!

I tried using one many times at guitar center and could not for the life of me figure out how to sequence drums. Never used a drum machine before. Thank you for this!

The TR8S blew this thing out the water. I had the TR8 and liked it so much I upgraded to the TR8S and boy am I in love!

Great review/overview of the TR-8 man!

Thank you so much I'm learning about the equipment now I'm planning on buying the whole set up of the AIRA system

Thanks for the video. Very nice and clear tutorial as it should be!

Many thanks for this tuto,clear,straight forward....perfect!

Best video I've seen on this machine. Thanks!!!

brilliant thanks for a great review ...evcen down to going into the settings ,i got this second hand ,and resetting it has made so better playing removing the previous owners settings .....spot on ,brilliant ,well covered

great video thanks!! coming from playing live acoustic drums i'm a pure n00b so this was very helpful for me

The sidechain + scatter is amazing!

Thank you for uploading this tutorial, it was helpful

That was pretty good and straightforward. Kudos

Thanks, great intro vid. Helpful. Also, like your shirt.

Thumbs up! Roland should pay you for such a good and clear explanation of the TR8! Thank you very much. The first thing that annoyed me was the need of sunglasses for the bright light of the knobs. The second was that screen saver. Spot on, really a good explanation where to start with the TR8. Rolands way to huge, one page manual, with too small text size can go to the waste bin... :-)

Loved the feature side chaneing with the Volca!

Thanks, I just got the TR8 and appreciate the info.... now I will enjoy and see later if you have more info on this one and other AIRA ..thanks

Really helpful video, thanks for making this

First video i see showing real intersting features of Tr8

Well I thought it was a great video, and considering most of my mates roll their eyes when I even bring up the subject of making trance techno tracks and, gasp, playing live at the local boozer/disco in Brâlia, Romania, I need all the help I can get. The TR-8 is a great machine but fucking complicated too. Keep it up Barney.

fantastic thanks, simply explained for my small brain, the volca keys is going into the side chain as i speak,

Thanks for the info! Great overview!

Thanks man! This is a really great review!

A pro tutorial, thanks. the tr-8 is my next purchase.

It's one of those straightforward, great sounding devices, really fun!!

Well put. The TR-8 seems to have limitations rather it is more feature rich then an original Roland TR-808 which makes it a must for someone who really wants the original because this wonderful simulator is genius for preparing as well as it is its own instrument!

stellar review, great job

Thank you so much for this!

nice tutorial simple and clear

That helped me a lot. Thanks.

Great video. Thanks !

nice job ... thxs

Useful video

Perfect 👌

awsome vid

best review!

I never knew that yellow cable was available for external in I need one now

hey great vid! theres a setting I turned on and cant recall where it is now ..theres a setting where you can kinda mess with the internal 'clock' or 'feel ' of the TR. It allows you to turn on or off the TR8 original 'feel". Because the original TR had a bit of 'wobble' in its resolution or clock to give it a bit of loose feeling theres a feature to 'tighten" it up. It makes the resolution more up and down. I turned it on to do some recording using the DAW but cant remember how to turn it off!!! Any ideas??? thanks man .

thanks for professional tutorial

So.....that external in feature seems like the magic sauce that actually takes the TR8 closer to the TR8S territory than you'd think.....ok so you can't load samples on the TR8 by way of a memory card, but you can probably do better by connecting a synth to the external in and probably get similar results. I'm no expert and have only recently bought my first synth, a Modal Electronics Cobalt 8, and bought a TR8 last week for £230, which is my first ever drum machine. Those 2 things should be more than capable pieces of kit....even though I don't know what I'm doing at the moment 😎👍

I sticked an Elektron Samples to the external in and they sound great together. Opens up the possibilities indeed.

Great video! Thank you. I'm restarting in this musical world... I just bought a TR 8 and one moog subphatty. I was trying to play them together via MIDI cable, but I think now this should be via audio cable, right?

Thank you

Slow Start but very Great overall Video! Thank you!

+Anonymous Animal 2 dude can you help me Please!! I can sequence the fx on certain steps no problem< but when i press the kit button and then try to add the reverb or delay globally to the different kit elements, nothing happens!! its driving me round the bend. Ive had it working before, I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.I beg you for a reply

Thnaks!

thanks for the video! when i side chain from my synth exactly the same as you've done there the tr8 cuts the synth twice at every single step. do you know whats going on here? thanks!

Great video, how do you change tracks? if you r in a live mix how do you change between patterns or tracks?

Very good tutorial - I have one question.....Can you change kits during a sequence eg Bass drum of one kit on beat 1 and bass drum of another kit on beat 3?

Hi! Can you offset a note and/or a whole instrument (ie snare)? So it plays a little early or late in relation to the clock?

i got to get one of these things.

SUPERR!!!!!!!

Thank you So Much ! Amazing !! Really Down to earth video i really appreciate it . Dude plz i ask for help . I am unable to save the patterns even after clicking PTN select and "numbers on " sequence " ? I stored some Paterns before and totally lost track how . How to Save a Pattern ? People ... Help ?! Thank you !

Thank you are very helpful to explain the TR 8, thank you. How can i safe the new drum pattern if i want to use these for the next day? Has the TR 8 a memory bank or to safe the data? I discoverd if you turned the TR 8 off, is my drumpattern which i wanted to use gone

i like the carnival lights screen saver

Blalalal look at me, look at me! Made me lol

hi there ! my question is, is it possible to connect a keyboard (nord in this case) through midi to the tr-8 in the purpose of being able to loop/record as well the keyboard with the beats ?

Tanks Men

Hi is it possible to use multiple bass drums sounds for instance in a single beat on this device? something along the lines of setting a bess drum sound to the snare category?

If I get a 16 channel mixer how would I connect the tr8 to the mixer to upload into my daw? I have close to 11 pieces of hardware/equipment and I’m confused as in how the TR can be channeled individually to my daw while only connected to one line input?

does anyone know if Roland are going to do any other Expansions other than the 7x7. it just feels like this bit of kit deserves more sound.

hi does the faders sync with ableton ? for example if the kick in midi channel and you're connected via USB will the fader move on the DAW Ableton?

Great video. I was wondering if there's a way to sync the delay time to a specific time divisions, rather then free balling tempo with the timing knob? If you're familiar at all with the volca beats, there's a hidden feature where you can hold the function button and turn the stutter's time knob to sync up to specific time divisions.

Ah that's really too bad. Maybe if enough people ask for it, Roland will patch it in a firmware update. That was one of my favorite functions on the volca beats.

I’m a complete beginner with drum machines. I’ve been gassing for a tr-09 but I feel like the learning curve is much more involved. Would you recommend the tr8 over tr-09?

Hi, I almost got everything to work except from...I don't know way but I'm not able to record the any effects like the delay or reverb. I'm using the Logic Pro x 10.5 and recording the audio. DO u know what is the reason?

is it possible to have a different scale for A bar of the pattern than the B? Becouse i cant figure it out..

Is it capable of clocking the arpeggio of the Juno 60 like the older Roland drum machines could? thanks.

Are the settings beeing saved or do i have to do this every time again after i switched the TR8 off ?

hey man , great videos , i want to ask you a question , which sinth or other machine you think partners best with de tr8 ???

Hi! When i m connecting midi out to my juno 106, Tr8 sends midi notes as it plays, is there a way to deactivate this? thanks

Hello, I recently bought this product and in the ad description, it said that it was possible to import samples to the Tr8, I would like to know how this can be done because I have not found any way.

How about using all these features with an external sequencer like Side chain and the effects can this be done Thanks yours michael

i just recieved the tr8 in the mail. Does the tr8 have a built in speaker that plays as a stand alone or do you need one ? The headphones work fine . I am slowly learning and I mean slowly . But it is so much fun . Thank you for the video ! I need something very basic in order to get started and work with this machine I feel and you helped out a lot

I can't for the life of me figure out how to connect my keyboard to my tr-8 & laptop (garageband), I've got two midi cables and a usb 2.0, I have the tr-8 installer, input set to tr8, input monitoring on and have read the midi sections the manuals for both the keyboard (CKT-620L) and tr-8 but nothing seems to work, I want to play the keyboard into to the tr-8 so I can use sidechain then record it onto garageband, but when I connect both MIDI cables the tr-8 plays out of the keyboard?!, Garageband says there is an 1 MIDI imput connected but that's about it. any suggestions as to what i might be doing wrong would be much appreciated

its like a 'modern setting' and ' original setting " for the sequencer ppq.

super helpful video man. thanks. quick question, what cable are you using for the side chain in from the volca? i have a volca bass and this looks rad! cheers
