The AIRA TR-8 Rhythm Performer from Roland combines the legendary sound, form, and function of the vintage TR-808 and TR-909 rhythm machines with cutting-edge performance and live pattern manipulation capabilities to create a modern-day classic well-suited for stage or studio. Roland developed the “Analog Circuit Behavior” (ACB) technology, which faithfully recreates the tonality and behavior of true-analog circuits. With ACB, every detail of these original machines is captured, including the variations in tone that occur when multiple instruments are entered in accented steps.
