The iconic drum machine reborn with modern touches and a protective shield.

The Roland TR-08 brings the iconic sound and vibe of the legendary TR-808 drum machine to the modern Boutique format. This obsessively detailed reissue captures every nuance that made the original 808 a gamechanger, from its trademark bass drum thump to its robotic, futuristic percussive tones. With the included Decksaver cover, you can take this portable powerhouse wherever your music demands.

Authentic 808 Control at Your Fingertips

Just like the revered original, the TR-08 gives you direct access to all the parameters that defined the 808's unique character. Tweak the tuning, decay and output levels for each instrument using the familiar faders and knobs. Sculpt the attack and tone of the unmistakable bass drum. Dial in your ideal snare snap and adjust the sizzling hi-hats. Every control helps you craft sounds spanning from vintage 808 classics to fresh, modern rhythms.

Powerful Sequencing for Intricate Patterns

The TR-08 enhances the original 808 workflow with modern upgrades that unlock new creative possibilities. A 16-step sequencer allows you to program patterns the classic way using the iconic TR-REC button. But now each step contains 16 sub-steps, enabling you to create snare rolls, hi-hat flourishes and other intricate fills that were nearly impossible on vintage hardware. An LED display offers improved visibility when setting tempos, shuffles and more.

Integrate With Your Rig or Play Standalone

Thanks to its flexible I/O, the compact TR-08 can easily integrate into your existing setup or be used on its own. A dedicated trigger output lets you sync the rhythms to other instruments like Roland's Boutique TB-03 and SH-01A or even modular gear. Send and receive MIDI data via USB or the I/O ports. The built-in speaker and battery power mean you can jam whenever inspiration strikes, no cables required.

Roadworthy Protection With the Decksaver Cover

Your studio centerpiece deserves a fitted suit of armor, which is why this bundle includes a custom Decksaver cover tailored for the TR-08. Precision-trimmed openings allow full access to controls while shielding the enclosure from dings, dust and liquid mishaps. Made from durable polycarbonate, it keeps your 808 primed for action at home, in the studio or on tour.
