Update went well 😀weird how you have to do a local factory reset to get the new kits and patterns though !

There is an "save on shutdown" option (somewhere in the utility memory I believe), so you do not need to be a chronic saver!

Awesome timing!!

TR8s has an autosave setting if you don't want to worry about saving when you power it off. Not as good as Elektron which is always auto-saving, so if power goes out you are safe. With the TR8s, it only saves if you flip the power button, if your power goes out it won't have saved anything. I learned this the hard way 😂

I'm not sure if you mean like on the Roland TR software app? I'm assuming that it did because both were updated at the same time.

How is the chromatic bass any different from motion recording the tuning on any other bass? Like, why not just motion record tuning per step on the regular 808 bass? I really don't get what is so chromatic about it. There are some FM basses in the 8s that have actual note parameters which you can dial in notes rather than some coarse version of the already present tuning. I really don't get what the fuss is about.

You’ve gotta factory reset!

If we factory reset for the update do we lose our imported samples and patterns?

@LiamKillen

9 ай бұрын

I think so - make sure to back those patterns up.

Adding CR78 is most welcome. But damn…very underwhelming update otherwise. 1:) Still the MAJOR issue introduced after version 2.0 where triggering pattern changes via external midi program change causes the beat to skip/stutter and fall out of time. 2:) still rigidly locked to the grid with no possibility of say, having a clap hit slightly before or after the beat, so lame. 3:) still no way to use the pads for basic melodic lines instead of this tedious coarse tune programming. And now it’ll likely be another 6 months to a year of these issues before any possibility of another update. C’mon Roland.

The TRS8 is a great machine, However , the TR editor is Cloud based and its a licence nightmare, never using any Roland cloud software again. Being forced to be online constantly is a pain, I bought the damn thing let me use it piece.

The sounds are crap and I see no use for the CR78! I don’t see any new music in any of the genres of today using the these ACB samples. Roland need to focus on the next type of sound design and bring in something new, instead of regurgitating the same old crap!
