Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer Basic Demo

YouTube via zibbybone
"Just showing the basic features of this popular drum machine. I have the individual outs running into an Alesis MultiMix 8 to add some stereo panorama and some reverb to some instruments. Next, I test the DIN sync input by controlling the 808's tempo and Start/Stop with a TR-606. Next, I test the pedal inputs for Start/Stop and manual Fill-In (the Tap/Fill-In button does not work on this machine). Then, I demostrate basic tweaking of individual drum sounds. Lastly, I hook the 3 trigger outs (Accent, Clap and Cowbell) to a Tama Techstar TS-305 analog drum synth brain's kick, snare and rim shot."
