ROLAND R-8 HUMAN RHYTHM COMPOSER - VINTAGE - '80s -

I BOUGHT THIS AS A BACK-UP FOR MY R-8 MACHINE MANY YEARS AGO. NEVER USED IT. NO POWER SUPPLY. POWERED-UP WITH A LEAD FROM MY MAIN MACHINE SEPTEMBER 2024. NO REASON WHY IT WON'T BE WORKING AS IT SHOULD. IT POWERS UP OK WITH MY LEAD. INTERNAL BATTERY CHANGED SEPTEMBER 2024

I CAN'T GUARANTEE ANYTHING, YOU TAKES YER CHANCE. JUST HAVING A CLEAR OUT.

One of the very best drum machines ever. It has excellent sounds which can be expanded by adding additional sound cards (808 and 909 cards). Great rock, electronic, ethnic and industrial style drumkits! Most of the sounds are editable - tune, decay, attack, nuance, output, etc...

But its coolest tricks are the Feel Patches which give your program a human-like groove! The sounds are ROM based samples, the R-8 has 32 note polyphony, 68 instruments, 100 patterns and 10 songs! The R-8 later became the R-8mkII with more memory and sounds. It is used by Orbital, Underworld, Jimmy Edgar, Autechre, 808 State, Dave Holmes, Fluke, Human League and The Shamen.
