I must have been sleeping through the announcement of this, but wow. This looks incredible and on my next buy list.

I was considering buying a Roland subscription just to use the Drum machine emulations, but this might just be better. I'm not very fond of the DJ colour BS but other than that it looks cool. I imagine you can turn that shit off.

You can select the colour for each part, so they can help for organizing your kits.

You must really have been sleeping because the TR8 (which includes everything in your subject line) has been out for 5 years now.

This is upgraded and improved version with letter S so it can be confusing. This was released in March this year.

You can look at it like a decent upgrade. Basically they added most requested features since original TR8 was released.

Yes, I’m completely aware.

My point is the features the OP is most interested in, as indentified by the subject line, were already in the TR8.

Roland TR-8S (9O9, 8O8, 7O7, 727, 6O6 AIO)
