TR-8S Kits : Vintage Drum Machines

[hugo vinagre]

I bought a Roland TR-8S two months ago. As i started to learn the machine, i noticed that most of the factory kits are demo songs and not drum kits. Most of the kits have chord stabs, leads, basses and sounds that are totally unusable if you are searching for drum patterns. Frustrated by the lack of usable kits, i decided to make my own. I started sampling classic drum machines, drum synths, romplers, vstis and everything i could lay my hands on. After 2 months of work, the result are 23 kits + patterns.

The kits can be bought at Bandcamp and include:

Hello. That is bancamp's default info. The kits are in tr8s native format. they were made using 16 bit mono and stereo files because of the tr8s limited memory amount.
