Roland AIRA TR-8S

Transistor Rhythms

Includes every sound from the most sought-after TR drum machines, with detailed circuit-models of the 808, 606, 909, 707, 727, and even modified versions. Each machine is a detailed, down-to-the-circuit-model that sounds and behaves exactly like the original.

Fast, Fluid & Fun

You can program on the 16 TR-REC buttons or use the velocity-sensitive performance pad to play live, or record into the sequencer. Get experimental with unusual polyrhythms and complex meters by adjusting the length or ″last step″ of each drum part.
