Roland R8 MK 2 vs Boss dr880
Roland R8 MK 2 vs Boss dr880
Hi, I know this is a very subjective question, but I'm curious to hear some thoughts on this: Are there any here who have used both the R8 MK2 and Boss Dr880? I know the dr880 has more features, obviously, but which machine has the fatter drum sounds? Thanks.

Hi
I have used the R8 and it has 90s style sounds where as the DR880 is more modern sounding. Not sure what fatter means as you can adjust the sound parameters for both. There are good videos for the DR880 built in patterns so you can see for yourself

What I mean by fatter, for example: if you compare the 808 or any other kick out of the r8 with that of the boss, the r8 just sounds fuller/beefier.

If anyone is still here, I am hanging around wondering whether the R8 is better or the DR880? Anyone with personal experience please vent.
