Tomorrow Returns
Carrying forward the legacy of the TR-808 and TR-909, the TR-1000 Rhythm Creator is Roland’s most powerful drum machine.
yet, purpose-built for today’s producers and performers. It fuses Roland's iconic analog TR sound with advanced digital
instruments and sampling, delivering an all-in-one, hybrid platform for rhythm creation.
Its hands-on controls and streamlined interface encourage real-time manipulation — from subtle shifts to bold sonic transformations
— supported by a sophisticated sequencer and deep sound design tools. Developed in close collaboration with a global community
of electronic music artists, the TR-1000 balances an array of cutting-edge technology with performance-minded design to inspire new
directions in rhythm.
FULL SOUND SPECTRUM
● A trifecta of Roland’s classic analog TR sounds,
powerful digital processing, and stereo sampling for
distinctive, dynamic rhythms.
● The TR-808 + TR-909 analog sound engines capture
the boom, snap, warmth, and presence that define the
sonic DNA of modern sound. With expanded controls
and tuning, TR-1000’s carefully crafted enhancements
offer newfound flexibility.
● Advanced digital sound engines offer ACB (Analog
Circuit Behavior) for high-detail virtual analog modeling,
including 19 new circuit-bent 808 / 909 voices, plus
FM synthesis, VA waveforms, and PCM for deep sonic
exploration and newfound digital textures.
● Stereo sampling and resampling, BPM Sync for loops,
real-time time-stretching, and up to 16-slice editing for
seamless loop creation and one-shot design.
TOUCH, TRIGGER,
TRANSFORM
● An instrument built to be played, with dedicated step
keys, assignable knobs, and fluid faders for real-time
control over every aspect of your performance.
● Assignable morph fader can control multiple parameters
for smooth transitions or radical transformations with a
single movement.
● Dedicated volume faders and onboard effect controls
make it easy to shape sound and create changes on the
fly.
● Go deeper with Motion Recording per Step for
automated changes or Step Loop for syncopated fills.
BRING SEQUENCING TO LIFE
● Classic TR-style step, real-time, and off-grid sequencing
with advanced tools for evolving grooves.
● Dynamic pattern tools add movement and variation
using step direction, cycle conditions, probability
settings, and more.
● Offers detailed timing resolution and flexible control,
making it easy to capture expressive performances with
or without quantization.
● Tight sync and clocking with external hardware,
modular systems, and DAWs ensure seamless
integration, expanding your MIDI setup.
● Link up to 128 patterns with Song Mode to create
evolving arrangements for live performance or mapping
compositions.
