owner: John Goodman
"The Roland TR-808 is a revolutionary computer-controlled rhythm machine which offers up to 768 measures of programming at a time. In addition, this unit offers more percussive variations and more effects than virtually any other unit on the market. With it you can visualize patterns and real-time processing, program complete songs, and do just about everything else a rhythm machine should do with more accuracy and less trouble.
- "Number of rhythms:
- Basic, A/B x 12
- Intro/Fill-in, A/B x 4
- Rhythm and track:
- 64 measures x 12 tracks (768 measures by using 12-tracks)
- Measure Divisions:
- 32 steps can be selected at maximum as desired
- Sound Sources:
- Bass drum
- Snare drum
- Low, Mid, Hi Tom/Conga
- Rimshot/Claves
- Handclap/Maracas
- Cow bell
- Cymbal
- Open hi-hat & Closed hi-hat
- Accent" (NOTE: Accent isn't a sound. Instead it lets you place accents on certain beats in the bar. All instruments playing on these beats are accented.)
