Roland Aira T-8 – Compact Drum Machine Add classic Roland drum and bass sounds to your productions with the AIRA Compact T-8 Beat Machine. This ultraportable groove machine supplies six tracks of drum sounds derived from the company’s legendary series of drum machines and one bass track featuring 303-style tones, all courtesy of Roland’s Analog Circuit Behavior technology, which accurately simulates the rich analogue sounds of the original machines. Create up to 64 user patterns with 32 steps each using the classic TR-REC drum sequencer with advanced composition tools such as probability, sub-step, last step, and velocity. Manipulate your sequences live with powerful performance features including step loop, mute, fill, reload, and pattern shift. Built-in effects let you sculpt and process the sounds with reverb, delay, overdrive, and even sidechain compression. Comprehensive connectivity allows the T-8 to play nicely with DAWs, MIDI equipment, and of course, other AIRA units.
