DEMO of 100 NEW Minilogue Sounds


BoBeats
Published on Aug 7, 2017

"This demo is 100% Minilogue sound. No external FX. No compression. No EQ. 100% my sloppy playing.

You can purchase them here: https://sellfy.com/p/5Oo6/

They are also available to all 10+ euro Patrons over on http://www.patreon.com/bobeats

(And yes... because I know some people will point it out: there is a small piece of hair on the Minilogue. The irony is that it comes from the brush I used to wipe it clean......)"

Playing TR-8 Bass Drum Chromatically (808 Day)

Published on Aug 8, 2017

"I programmed the Korg PadKontrol to affect the pitch of the Roland TR-8 Bass Drum. With long decays on an 808 kit you can play it like a bass line. Here's a quick example, forgive me if YouTube compression just breaks the internet."

Roland SE-02 - First Day Fiddling - Just Music - From Tame to Aggressive


Earmonkey Music
Published on Aug 8, 2017

"Only had this little guy since yesterday afternoon. This was a 4:30 a.m.-switch-the-thing-on-and-go. It's all SE-02, no external FX. The Delay is on board. Not a lot of variety in this particular segment and the video cuts off a minute or so before the audio. But I figured if anyone liked it that much, they could still hear. It has a great sound. The filter sounds very much like my Mother 32 filter to me."

Roland Introduces New SP-404A Linear Wave Sampler


Roland SP-404A & TR-8 Performance
RolandChannel
Published on Aug 8, 2017

"Watch the powerful combination of sampling and rhythm synthesis with the Roland SP-404A and Roland AIRA TR-08 Rhythm Performer in this video.

The Roland SP-404A Linear Wave Sampler can now expand the sounds of the Roland AIRA TR-8 Rhythm Performer (with latest TR-8 update v1.5) for a combination of sample and percussive synthesis.

The SP-404A can be triggered from the TR-8 Rhythm Performer via MIDI for integrated beat and sample production. Users can incorporate samples from the SP-404A and use them in conjunction with drum patterns, and each of the TR-8’s 11 tracks can trigger a sample on the SP-404A, play a TR-8 sound, or both.

In addition, the TR-8 can be used as an audio sub-mixer and processor for the SP-404A. In this configuration, all samples played on the SP-404A can be effected using the TR-8’s Scatter feature to reverse, glitch, gate, truncate, stutter, and perform all types of rhythmic variations in perfect sync. Samples can also be controlled by the TR-8’s per-step Side Chain function for rhythmic ducking and gating effects.

To get users started with sample looping, the SP-404A comes with an SD card loaded with a library of new sounds created by Loopmasters, a leading sample developer. The samples in the library have been designed specifically to complement the TR-8, but also work well in standalone applications."

TR-08 details via Roland

"The TR-08 brings the look, sound, and feel of the original 808 — with stunning accuracy — to the Roland Boutique format. From the instantly-recognizable red-orange-yellow-white markings, the shape of the sequencer buttons, switches and knobs are details that have been painstakingly reproduced to match the iconic recreation of sounds. Along with the aesthetic touches, the TR-08 contains new features like 16 sub-steps for fast rolls, independent trigger out track, compression/gain/tune for instruments and a selectable modified “long decay” bass drum for more boom and resonance.
