Description
Built on the legacy of Roland's most iconic drum machines, the Roland TR-1000 Rhythm Creator is a powerful professional drum machine sporting true analog, ACB (VA), FM, and PCM sample-based tone generation. Equipped with massive storage for up to 2048 drum kits, 2048 user patterns, and up to six-track 16-step sequences, the TR-1000 is built to be the ultimate rhythm generator.The TR-1000 sports an incredible array of hands-on controls that every hardware knob-tweaker will appreciate, including 11 faders, 53 knobs, 16 step-sequencer buttons, and much, much more. Further precision control is enabled by the bright OLED graphical display. The integrated sampler provides 16-bit / 48 kHz sampling, but you can also import your own AIFF, WAV, and MP3 samples as well. Integrated digital FX includes filters, amp sims, compressors, instrument FX, reverb, delay, and master FX, but the unit also includes analog FX like filter and drive, which can be sent directly to the dedicated Analog FX outputs. Further complimenting the extensive connectivity, the TR-1000 features stereo mix output, individual line-level / trigger outputs for each instrument, a 1/4" stereo pair external audio input, trigger/CV I/O, a pedal control input, and MIDI 5-pin DIN input, output, and output/thru jacks, ideal for connecting to legacy hardware. Finally, a USB-C port is available for host connections and transfer data to and from a computer, while a USB-A port allows for use of an external thumb drive for extra storage. The TR-1000 includes a power cord and a USB-C to USB-A cable. Sound CreationRoland Analog, Reimagined The TR-1000 is the first Roland drum machine with a true analog engine in over 40 years. It features 16 of the most coveted circuits from the TR-808 and TR-909, faithfully recreated from the original designs with detailed engineering and carefully selected modern components. Fusing vintage soul with expanded control, this engine delivers the authentic analog TR sound, boosted with new parameters and vastly expanded dynamic range.Rewriting the Rules of Rhythm Alongside the TR-1000 s analog sounds are powerful digital engines driven by Roland s latest modeling technology. Their ACB (Analog Circuit Behavior) platform provides detailed analog circuit emulations, including 21 circuit-bent 8X and 9X models.Drawing from the 808 and 909, these new voices include quick-access parameters for live shaping and expanded controls that push the sound far beyond the range of conventional analog. You also get FM percussion, virtual analog synthesis, and a deep library of PCM samples for sonic exploration and fresh digital textures.Sample, Stretch, Slice, Resample Classic TR instruments laid the foundations for countless electronic music genres, and when paired with digital sampling, their influence deepened. Comprehensive sample tools are fully integrated into the TR-1000 workflow, including stereo sampling and resampling, BPM sync, seamless time-stretching, and nondestructive slice editing. The onboard 64GB memory comes with a curated collection of 2000 samples, with 46GB free for your own captures, edits, and sample imports.Analog and Digital Effects Refine and transform with the TR-1000 s rich palette of tactile effects. Shape sounds with the new analog state-variable filter (SVF) inspired by classic Roland OTA designs.Add saturated punch using the dedicated analog drive. Color tones with digital favorites like crusher, filter, isolator, saturator, pitch delay, flanger, and more. Enhance the mix with reverb and delay sends for each track, and then add additional flavor and movement with a slate of master effects.Deep Sound Design Powerful in-line processing makes it easy to sculpt distinctive and dynamic rhythms with the TR-1000. Each track combines a model-specific sound generator, compressor, multimode filter/four-band EQ, and amp/envelope control. Four of the available tracks allow for two independent sound generators to be stacked or programmed separately, c
