Excellent video Gaz! I always enjoy your personality. :) I bought the TR-08 when it came out and the TR-808 last year. I did a comparison video of the two and I feel this new version is pretty close to the original. And after working with the TR-808 for the last year I really love the new functions they offered on it. Thanks for making this wonderful video. I love the Roland Boutique line. After carrying around the originals for the last year it sure makes it more convenient to move around. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Got mine recently. Thought the small knobs and buttons would be a problem with my large f'd up handz but so far I am too busy having fun twerkin' da knerbz to notice any such problem. The unit while small, seems quite tight/solid/not cheap. Even the tiny button things seem better than larger ones on another "groove box" I've got. And it's solid metal case is a nice thing to feel in the winter. Convenient adjustable angle stand thing is a nice touch and comes in handy. Most importantly it sounds plenty "phat" for real! I can understand how this may not be for "most" musicians but it works well for me... a DAW-less "producer" who loves little hardware gadgets and lots of fun effects.

Thanks , Gaz! What a nice review! I just got mine a week ago for about HK$2,000 on sale which was great. I also owned a TR505 which was a nice machine too but I’ve found theTR08 to be having a lotta fun to work with.

WARNING FOR PC USERS!! doing the audio over USB thing is quite limited on windows. It only works if you use the TR-08 as your only soundcard, but what Gaz is referring to, using it as an aggregate device alongside your soundcard is very unstable in windows. You have to use ASIO4ALL and I did not get this to work cleanly. I am now a quite bit dissapointed with my tr-08 ... Wish sonicstate would have pointed this out. That would have made me reconsider my purchase ...

This is a very good product review, good intro of nearly all features and a run through of what is plugged in and not (reviewers are often crap at explaining the ports) a good practical demo of this calibre is just what I need to crack on and learn how to program my new TR-08.

For a similar prize you can get the MFB Tanzmaus or the Tanzbar Lite which are analog (for the purists) and also have parameter locks and much more modulation probabilities, also separate outputs for when wanted or necessary. This one for me seems more like a really fun drum machine but not a serious one when compared to the other options in the market. I would still buy one just for the fun and looks of it.

I was unable to afford an 808 in the 80s but was fortunate to purchase a second-hand 606, the poorman's 808, to go with my second-hand 101 and 202. From owning the 606, I recognise many of the features and the methodology for programming a Roland drum machine. Point 1. I love the nostalgia of programming drums in this way and it would perhaps, offer younger fans of electronic gear a different modus operandi for producing electronic music, which cannot be at all bad. 2. Many of the reviews of using the 808 by 808 owners comment on the fact that no two 808s sound the same due to the analogue technology available at the time. So it may be worth younger electronic enthusiasts noting that point when electronic 'officiandos' or mates become @rsy. Great review Gaz and well thought out as always.

First a shout-out to all: Even if you're not gonna watch the whole thing, jump to 20:00 !!! Great review, Gaz' enthusiasm is quite contagious, but I've noticed several reviewers are starting to hit the nail on the head regarding the boutique series. Between the missing PSU and some weaknesses in the connectivity, they just seem a little too expensive. It's not actually about them being digital or any of that. And gotta say; that bottom end, especially on the closing jam.

Nice of you pointing towards the signature misusage of the bd now being an actual feature of it being allowed to feature an extense decay. But lacking the ability of programming basslines internally due to not being able to tune the bd, is it possible to do so on an external hardware sequencer? This unanswered quest is the only unsolved mystery keeping me from getting a hold of this. I want this as a bassline badly, just as, in contrary, I would not want my 303 as a bassline at all...

You cant do the individual out on a PC...Well you can but you will end up scrapping it as its a total pita. If you have more than one you can only do one. And when yo udo that it has to be your interface. Hardly anyone will do that. The other issue is when the USB is pluggued in to your computer there is noise/hum. Its from the USB connection. So, the only way to get rid of that is to plug in to a USB power socket on the wall but then you lose the USB connectivity. I have the TR-09 one which is great. Shame about the USB/power/noise stuff though.

No it's not a sample. It's DSP based, digital synthesis. VA, virtual analog modeling, like a Virus or a nordlead basically. Samples would be recordings of an exisiting sound. Here the sounds are digitally generated. But not analog as the original 808 sounds.

Gaz, that weird approach to copying a pattern, where you specify destination first, and then source, is the same as what all Intel processors use. In their machine code, copying instructions (called "move" instructions) specify destination first, then source. Other processors of the late 70s, early 80s, such as the Motorola ones, did copying the way you'd expect: from source to destination. So had Roland used Motorola chips, maybe the drum machine copying workflow would have been more intuitive?

Very good review, as a previous owner of an original 808 I was especially interested in the emulation of its workflow. The substep feature in particular is very promising as an enhancement, because for something like that you had to recreate your pattern then. However, I don't remember if the 808 forced you to have the same step number for A/B, which the TR-08 does (I just read that in the Tr-08-manual, but couldn't figure it out in the 808 manual).

Good to see you around the comments section! Its been a few years since I visited your channel but glad to see you still at it. Inspiring stuff. As for the tr-08, I totally hear you. Generally I work half in box and half out so I think this would work ok for my workflow but can see the frustration with a more live studio hardware focused musician like your self. I personally think that while not super friendly it could be ok for live stage use for portability sake. It's a matter of getting used to those tiny volume knobs for bringing sounds in and out or using a computer with controller as a live mixer for each individual digital track. In theory it is kinda similar to the workflow of the Elektron machines with their Overbridge products. I personally enjoy that way of working but it definitely isn't for everybody.

Gaz, as always excellent video. I bought the Roland TR-08 AIRA version when it came out and still haven't stopped tinkering with it. for a few more dollars the AIRA edition is well worth it. Especially for triggering your own samples via MIDI (if you have a sampler laying around) with the new firmware update. This boutique edition is just that. A boutique item. It's for those who are limited on space and have always wanted a piece of Roland history without the fuss, mess of trying to acquire the original. My TR-08 Aira edition can't quite sit in my lap while on the couch plus I am then tethered by the AC adapter, but this boutique edition one can add batteries and case and easily enjoy life on a commute on the bus or train / tube / subway. I know I would have easily picked it up if I didn't have to drive. Great review again as always, Gaz.

With how much you move your hands, and the delay on your "detail screen" behind you, I found myself distracted from the information you're presenting in the video - which itself is excellent and fantastic. Can I recommend using a green screen with properly-synced video in the future? Just a suggestion, though. Great video!

You could, though there is always a delay in full HD processing, even with a green screen, not much we can do about that sadly. But point taken.

Maybe if Roland had done this 10-20 years ago, if I didn’t already have these sounds in a multitude of ways already, if it had some more interesting additions than what it has, if it didn’t have the archaic and masochistic step programming of the original, if it was cheaper, if it wasn’t quite so small and fiddly, if, if, if. Roland are incredible and doing things all wrong. Should have been listening to what people were screaming for the last quarter of a century. When the screams largely stopped then Roland decided to do something!! I was very interested in the 808 in the 90’s. Fast forward to 2016 and this feels like some sort of miss timed joke.

Still not sure what's so "fiddly" about it. I was a big fan of "realtime" recording 20 years ago which is why I went with their non-groovebox drum machines ala "Dr. Rhythm." (First with the DR-5) If only I'd had a better grasp as to what the appeal of a "groovebox" was back then... I bought and (regretfully) traded my Korg Electribes ES-1 and EM-1 shortly afterward for a DR-670! Unfortunately, back then the internet wasn't what it is today and the ability to watch countless demos, tutorials, etc. just wasn't there...

I love Gaz William's enthusiasm, and it helps peak my interest in things, such as the boutique line, which generally do not appeal to me. The USB audio feature is quite nice, and would be a great asset for any drum machine. Nicely done, and entertaining as well.

I wish I had cash to splash out for the boutique's, the D05, SH01A, TB03, and the TR08. I'd be in 90's electro/techno/trance clone-o-heaven. And I love Gaz reviewing stuff, anything really, Gaz I can sit down and watch you reviewing a toothbrush, honestly :)

@daniyalahmed97
@daniyalahmed97 6 жыл бұрын
Well, separate outputs allow you to add effects and podt processing to each drum sound individually. Eg Compression and eq on the snare, reverb on your toms etc etc

Very thorough overview and well explained but not enough actual demoing of the sound and maybe tweaking on the fly for me. I know that the sounds are ubiquitous so we kind of 'know' what they sound like but it would be nice to have seen you really stretch the sound engine so I can clearly see how I could incorporate it into my setup

A bit of a "stretch" but I've noticed by leaving mine looping, things gradually begin to change... Guessing that's a product of the ACB technology, pretty cool because it does remind me of what happens to real analog stuff I've left on loop for prolonged periods.

You can get decay, tone and tune on just about all of the sounds. I have a dedicated midi slot on my keyboard where I've got all the knobs mapped to each sound's tweakable parameter. You can download the midi implementation chart from Roland and it's got all the CC values right there. This thing's fuckin' awesome, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Don’t forget that any song on a major label back in the day was likely ran through a high end console like an SSL or something like that. It’s not the raw drum machine
