Another superb TR-808 based track is The Sisters Of Mercy's "Temple Of Love". Like Skinny Puppy's "Dig It", it's used in an unusual context, but rather than industrial in the case of "Temple Of Love" it's guitar based rock. I think they put the snare through a guitar amp, cranked it up, and then recorded it with a close mic to get a heavier sound. That was a classic trick used by a lot of guitar bands with drum machines - check out The Cure's "One Hundred Years" where they did the same with a Boss DR-55 Dr Rhythm.

Yes, apparently even Tadao Kikumoto didn't know that Roland lent one to YMO, he was very surprised when he heard it during the live broadcast :) The first album to feature the TR-808 is a not so clear cut case, however. One of the other records that lay claim to the throne is "The Monitors - Nobody Told Me". According to Dan Leroy's book "Dancing to the Drum Machine" the first person to record with an 808 may have been Suzanne Ciani. She began work on her album "Seven Waves" in 1979, but it was not released until three years later.

A combo of 808 and 909 drums with a 303 style bass thrown in for good measure, and a 32 step sequencer, all for just under 200 bux. My only gripe...no cowbell?!? Maybe in a software update. Oh, also, it has a built-in rechargeable battery, and it's teeny. Again, hoping Cap takes a gander later on.

You CAN do the rapid fire trap hats on an 808. It has the ability to alternate between two 16 step patterns. So instead of treating those as two 16 step patterns, just treat it as one 32 step pattern. So instead of the beats being 1, 5, 9, and 13 they are 1 and 9 on both patterns. So now adjacent steps in a pattern are 32nd notes rater than 16th notes. You just have to boost the tempo to compensate for the longer pattern. I just did this with my Key Step Pro and the Electronic (808) sound card for my Roland R-8M. On the KSP you can set the time division to 32nds. So I didn't have to double the tempo. It works great. It gets me the machine gun style trap hats. One nice thing about the R-8M (and presumably the R8) is that it responds to MIDI pitch. So I can live tweak the pitch of the sounds. The R-8M is a fantastic drum sound unit. I HIGHLY recommend it.
@CaptainPikant Жыл бұрын
In case you're referring to 15:43 (Sweatpants): Yes, with a 32 step pattern (A+B) and a 2x tempo multiplier/scale you can get double rolls. But for quintuplet rolls like in Sweatpants you'd need 5 x 16 = 80 steps and more importantly 5 x 80 = 400 BPM. As far as I've read the 808 only went to 300 BPM. Granted, you could switch to a 32nd note scale for double speed and just set it to 200 BPM. But come on, that pattern would look like a swiss cheese with mostly holes. Who would do that? Okay, says the guy who obsessed over programming "Hunter" on a 909. I stand corrected :) ❤

Great vid. I’ve always loved the 808 pattern on Sarah Mclachlan’s ‘Mary’ from Fumbling toward ecstasy. Producer Pierre Marchand loves the 808. Turns our Sarah doesn’t.
