Mint condition! A beautifully preserved Roland TR-08, complete with its original Roland case, batteries, and USB cable.

The legendary 808 sound in a compact Roland Boutique package! The TR-08 faithfully recreates the iconic TR-808 drum machine using Roland's Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) technology, delivering those unmistakable booming kicks, snappy snares, sizzling hi-hats, and classic analog-style percussion sounds.

With its hands-on 16-step sequencer, built-in speaker, MIDI connectivity, and 10 separate USB audio outputs, it's equally at home in a hardware setup or connected to your favorite DAW.

Included

  • Roland TR-08 Rhythm Composer – Mint Condition
  • Original Roland Case
  • Batteries
  • USB Cable

Condition: Mint! Beautifully maintained and ready for its next musical adventure.

Whether you're producing classic electro, synthpop, hip-hop, house, techno, or simply want that unmistakable 808 groove, this little machine delivers a legendary sound without requiring legendary amounts of studio space.

Fun Fact 🎹

The TR-08 actually goes beyond the original TR-808 in one interesting way: each of its 16 sequencer steps can be divided into 16 sub-steps, allowing incredibly fast hi-hat rolls, snare fills, and intricate rhythmic patterns that weren't possible on the original hardware!
