Yeah i suppose it does. It's easy to ask why would you bother buying the roland boutiques when you can just buy this? However after thinking about it, the boutiques do still have their place i believe. If you are a real purist and want that traditional feel you can buy the boutiques. Also i think they would be a lot of fun to play. They are also kind of more for people with enough disposable income to afford them as they are limited to that one particular drum set basically.

Shouldn't be that hard to import samples. They just reworked the 404 to the 404S. I'm guessing TR-8S is going to use a similar sample load setup with the SD card. which is the usual load from SD and assign. I'm curious if this is going to have software with it like the 404 where you can pad assign. Seems like they encourage you to use more than just drum sounds on this. That's what seems like it's going to be crazy.

@galinettto netto sam·plingˈsamp(ə)liNG/nounnoun: sampling; plural noun: samplings1. the taking of a sample or samples."routine river sampling is carried out according to a schedule"Statisticsa sample.2. the technique of digitally encoding music or sound and reusing it as part of a composition or recording. The TR-8S has the "option" of working with "samplings". The "option" to load, tweak, make beats/songs and work with custom "sampling" over stock sounds is what's known as a "sampling option." "Sampling" & "Sampler" two very different terms so write that down in your note book. A "Sampler" is a device that can record samples. "Sampling" on the other hand is a term that can be applied to the process of recording a sample itself or referred to as the post product of a sample (aka a Sampling). Yes, you can record multiple samples from a song and take those "samplings" load them into the TR-8S and make new music with it. Now I know all of you know it all's that watch a 10-15 minute video are now industry experts on sampling. So I take that into account. I'm like galinettto netto must be some kind of music master since everyone is a "dumbass" compared to him let me check out his channel. I go and look and there's a video using "entry level" gear I listen to the song... "it's shit of course"... Sound like the time a spoon got caught in my garbage disposal... and then I see the volume of dislikes and the 1 dislike on his video and I'm like... hmmm this guy should spend less time making dumbass comments on youtube and more time learning how to make actual music.

@knuftobor6 жыл бұрын
spenza kwsx, altering the pitch of the sample would speed it up or down however, the pitch of the sample would be affected. Speeding up the sample without affecting the pitch would be timestretching which I don't think it does but I could be wrong.

spenza kwsx, Pioneer Taraiz SP-16 is a sampling drum machine that can time stretch but its very expensive, at least $1000.00. Might as well use Maschine. There are so many features that should be added to hardware drum machines like what Serato sample can do with the ability to save your chopped samples seperately which Serato can't do. And chop samples like recycle which does a great job of fading out the sample so you don't have pops at the end. Or auto region like Sound Forge. I could go on and on...

knuftobor true.. well, i have maschine. but the inbuild sampler is very basic which is weird because battery and kontakt have it. kontakt has also different pitch algorythms. the only way i get live timestretching (i mean not loopbased, i want to play the sample via sequencer or keyboard) is when i add the talsampler to machine. i spent the last couple of days trying to find a vst-sampler that loops (with variable start and end-points) and stretches samples as well. nothing found yet...

Ward de jager Allow me to offer some education on the subject. The machines you speak of had all kinds of primitive digital tech that added up to the way they sound. This early digital tech, coupled with the specific sample ROM is what created the way they sound. All of that is modeled. Same with the D50 emulation. There is way way more to it than simply samples. So, it's always nice to maybe ask some questions and learn before making harsh judgements. Sometimes things are not as simple or cut and dried at they may first seem.

Yes the d50 is modelled , but if you really believe that they modelled an srx card which only purpose was to store samples in ROM , then sorry...your gullible . Roland did not model the dac's of these romplers , or do you also think they modelled the potentially prone to exploding transistor on the JV exp. boards . ? ..:) noppes . I am not dissing roland here ( well maybe a litlle bit) , but I know they are the masters of marketing ..they are the only company that pumps so much money into their marketing campaigns .

Roland used the 8-bit ROMs from the TR-707, they didn't just sample it. The 707 was a hybrid digital/analog drum machine, though not quite to the extent the TR-909 was. The 8-bit samples are NASTY by themselves, super-bright and no decay whatsoever. That's where the 707's analog filters and envelopes come in. These analog filters and envelopes are fully reproduced and ADJUSTABLE on the TR-8. Impossible if they just sampled the 707 and called it a day. The TR-626 samples on the TR-8S ARE just samples, this is admitted in the preset list.

To have a 606, 707, 727, 808, 909 and your own samples with more functionality and a nicer interface for a quarter the price of one original 808 is worth something.

Clem Lysergy - Yeah, and the more I look at the TR-8S the more I realize just how much they added to this thing. I still have a bad taste in my mouth from playing with the oiginal TR-8 at Guitar Center. At the time I only had the Elektron Machinedrum and I still felt like it was worlds better than the TR-8. The 8S however does look like it can hold its own way better than the prior model. As some people are saying it seems Roland made a better modern Electribe than Korg did with the E2. But at the end of the day I already have the RYTM MKI and the 8S simply will not replace that in my setup.
