Roland TR-1000 Rhythm Creator Drum Machine Coming Soon




A new drum machine is coming soon from Roland, the TR-1000 Rhythm Creator.

Roland has not shared full details yet, but Sweetwater features the new drum machine in its latest catalog, above.

Here’s what they have to say about the new Roland TR-1000 Rhythm Creator drum machine:

“The Roland TR-1000 Rhythm Creator marries historic heat, analog presence and digital precision into a polychromic powerhouse, built on the masterfully re-created circuits of the legendary TR-808 and TR-909 drum machines. Its hybrid architecture houses a trio of synth engines, bringing a prismatic palette of FM, PCM and VA possibilities to the TR-1000’s analog foundations, with ACB modeling supplying the coveted circuit-bent sonics of the 8x and 9x models.

Over 2,5000 onboard sounds join a wealth of digital and analog effects, while the suite of classic-to-contemporary connectivity effortlessly integrates the TR-1000 into any arrangement. Add in cutting-edge Morphing performance controls, next-gen TR-REC sequencing, true-stereo re/sampling and an unbridled array of sonic countouring tools, and you’ve only scratched the surface of the TR-1000’s kaleidoscopic capabilities – vintage heart, modern soul and endless exploration waiting to be discovered by you.”

Official details for the Roland TR-1000 Rhythm Creator still to be announced by Roland.
