Before we get into talking about the specifics of this machine, let's just cover a couple of things. First of all the TR-909 itself was a classic piece of hardware made in 1984 and 1985. It began effectively the sound of house and techno. If you've produced house or techno or even if you listen to it you will be familiar with the sounds in this machine although a lot of us have had to use either samples or plugins for a long time. The technology that goes into these is Roland ACB proprietary technology - which is a component modeling system. So where as a lot of other virtual analogs will model the waveforms from original hardware, they actually model the structure of the components of the piece of hardware and that gives them a better opportunity to create a perfect recreation of it. Before we get into talking about this machine and how it actually functions I just want to quickly refer you over to the TR-8 because we've got a bit of a comparison going on here as the sounds of the TR-909 are also in here. You'll see this first of all there's a bit of a difference in size. We have a few extra controls on the TR-8 which you'd expect being a more modern machine. But what we have on the TR-09 is much more authentic recreation in terms of feel and use. Of course it is much smaller so they have actually changed a couple of things most notably the sequencer row here so these are little click buttons rather than the bigger push buttons on the TR-909 but that's exactly what you'd expect on a smaller machine. To the TR-09 itself now. So on the front panel like I said we've pretty much got everything you'd expect to find on a TR-909. I'll just run you quickly through it. We've got stop-and-start controls here. We've got a few controls here we can control the parameters pretty much of the sequence and more than anything else and we can also select instruments and we've got a shift which gives us the secondary functions that you can see under this row of buttons. In terms of the instruments we have exactly what you'd find on the TR-909 - bass, snare, three toms, rimshot, clap, closed and open hi-hats, crash cymbal and ride cymbal. The sequencer of course looks exactly the same as well and even this row of controls along the top is almost exactly what you'll find on a TR-909. There's a couple of small differences there. Below here is your enter key and your total accent control which i'm going to show you how all of this works. That's having a look at the actual physical functions on the front panel. What we have going on the back we've got MIDI in-out here, we've also got your mix in's so you can send other signals through the machine if you want to actually run everything into it or one other thing into and out to your sound system rather than having to use a mixer you can do that. We've got two outputs so this is your main output and your phones, then your volume control, your power for this units delivered from micro USB - you can connect it to a computer or if you have a power adapter that takes USB you can use it with that too. It's also battery-powered, also has a built-in speaker as well if you're not actually connected to anything. The sound so great if you're traveling and you just wanted to make some patterns while you're on the road then this is the perfect thing for doing that. There are a couple of other things that you'll find on this machine that is not on a TR-909. First of all we have a compressor, so we can hit the compressor button there and then we can dial in the amount of compression that we want. And I'll show you what that sounds like a little bit later. And the second one is this trigger out. So on the TR-909 there was a trigger out which was based of the rim shot. So whatever was programmed there would send out trigger pulses which you could use trigger other pieces of hardware. On here we actually have a distinct trigger out in itself. So even though it's located up here we can actually program in our own trigger out pattern that will be sent from that port which again I'll show you when we get in to actually programming. Let's now play something - we've got four tracks that we can play. So what these are is a sequence of patterns, I'll again come back to that a little bit later. Then we have three pattern groups and inside each one of those we have 16 patterns. Which are triggered using the buttons along the bottom. Let's just get something playing. There's a lot of patterns built in already of coarse. This is the kind of machine you're gonna be programming your own. So if you need to do that you can actually overwrite the ones that are already in there. Although there are a lot of slots there, I think you have 96 patterns in total. Let's play something now. So what I'm going to do first of all I'm going to select my bank group and pattern. So well go shift - and you'll see as well we have the little orange box there that denotes that what we are going to be doing when we press these buttons is effect what we can see here, so shift - first of all I'm going to jump over to bank one where we've got some preset patterns in there. This is the kind of machine that you're going to program program you own anyway, but they've got some in there anyway you can overwrite if you want. Next thing I need to do is make sure I'm in a pattern group. So we've got one, two and three. And then I can choose any one of the 16 pads. For a total of 96 patterns that we can have in here. Which is plenty for anybody. So I'm on pattern group one. and I'm on my first patch here so all I need to do is hit play. So what I'm noticing now is we're actually in track mode so we're actually running through a sequence of bars. If you don't want to be in track mode just hit pattern play one. And then we're just going to play a single pattern. So off we go, and I can change what that pattern is just by hitting the button's along here and they'll trigger after a bar finishes. And like I said these are all built in already but there overwrite-able. So while we've got this going lets just have a quick check of that compressor. So I'm going to jump into compressor mode. So it's actually quite a subtle compression, you don't really sort of notice a lot until you give the bass drum a bit more. And then you'll sort of notice as I turn it down it drops a bit of level. So that's the compressor. Let's have a look at the actual controls of each of the instruments now. So exactly the same as whats on the TR-8 so there's no real difference here. On your kick drum you've got tune control. What i'll do is actually turn these down. So here's your kick drum. We can tune it in. You've got your decay control and you attack. Next one over's the snare drum. You've got control over the tune. You can also control the tone and the snap on it. And if you've used 909 sample packs before or one shot samples you'll appreciate the beauty of being able to actually dial this in rather than having to work through a whole sequence of samples to find the perfect snare. Next up let's move over to the toms. I think we've actually only got the low end and the mid programmed into this pattern. We don't have a lot of control on these. These your tune, and your decay. Then we'll move over next to the rimshot On this one you only have a basic level control. Then we've got our hi-hats probably the most distinctive sound of the tr-909 is that open hi-hat we know from everywhere. Here's the clap again one of those characteristics sounds that we all know. The ride cymbal there and there's a crash cymbal on here. There is something really important to be said here which is if we look over at the TR-8 again we have some extra controls on here that we don't see on the TR-09 And that is basically because the TR-909 did not have them. But, the folks at Roland have put in those extra controls through your menu system. And the way we do that we're going to go shift and then you'll see down here we're on the compressor button we've got edit what your first notice here is we have three parameters so we can affect the gain which is great if you find say for example the clap on this is quite loud if you want to move that knob totally from the bottom to the top then you could turn down the gain of that particular instrument to give you that ability. The second thing we can do is to tune instruments. So again if we look back over here the TR-8 we have tune on the rim shot for example. So we can now do that to the rim shot here which only on this machine has a level control. What I'm going to do is just bring up the rim shot by itself. So i'm going to select tune. I'm going to tell it I want to control the rim shot. And there it is, we can tune that rim shot. We can go - if we get back down to zero we can go negative as well. So you can really set that wherever you want it. I'm now going to jump back into that edit mode again. This time i'm going to select decay or hit enter then I choose my instrument which in this case is going to be my ride cymbal. Now we've got the ride selected we're at a hundred percent at the moment I'm going to turn up my ride and then what I can now do is start turning this decay time down. So there's a couple more button presses to get these things than what you have on the TR-8 but it's all still in there so you're not really losing anything by working on the TR-09 by comparison. Alright so that's basically the instruments that are in there. That shows you the sounds. Let's now take a look at how you would sequence a pattern. What I'm going to do here we'll get out of this right back to the beginning here. First thing I probably want to do is set my tempo. You've got tempo control right here if you want to actually get more detailed than one beat per minute. You hold down shift and then this gives you increments of a hundreth so you so you have plenty of fine control over it if you're needing to try and synch this with something else. Now we've looked at all the things that are on here let's look at writing a pattern so first thing we're going to do is select a pattern. So I'm going to go shift. I'll actually go over to the second bank so now I'm in bank two. Let's stick with pattern write group one. So I'm going to hold down shift - when I hit this will start flashing. So now we're in pattern write mode. Now there's already a pattern in here but quickly before I move on to show you how to put a pattern let's just have a look at the scale button here. So what I can do with this you can see I'm basically changing what each step represents. Sort of a triplet pattern. Most of the time you'd probably be working in this mode which is just your standard four steps per beat. So let's stop this what I'm going to do now is clear this pattern so we've got something completely blank. So we'll clear that now when I hit start nothing's there. And bear in mind what I'm showing you here is exactly how the TR-909 would have been programmed as well there's effectively no difference. So first thing I need to do is select my instrument. So you notice that a lot of the instruments most of them actually have two buttons per instrument and in this particular way of programming all you need to do is use one of them. We'll hold down instrument select. I can actually select either one of those and it'll be the bass drum programmed in. Before you can start programming the pattern so i'm looking at i'm in pattern number one as well I could have chosen any of these and it it would have still worked. So i'm going to hit play once we start seeing the light chasing across the steps now we're actually ready to program. So again I can hold down instrument select at any point it will show me what instrument I've got programmed. So the first thing we notice here is the level i'm getting out of this is not what I had before with the inbuilt patterns and that is because there are actually two volumes of step we can use on the bass drum, snare drum, the toms and the closed hi-hat only. We actually have two different volumes so I'm gonna hit this again now we'll get full volume on these steps and in the options you can actually change the order this work so you can have it so that the first press gives you the full volume and the second press will give you half volume so here's our kick drum. At this point you know you you can dial things in you can tune this and adjust your levels, shape the drum. Next I'm going to do is enter the the traditional, I suppose hihat pattern so what I'm probably going to do is first of all is just drop all of these on. Get some of this. If anyone's familiar with Jeff Mills you sort of start to recognize that these are the sort of things he does. You got your decay control. Now what I want to do also here is throw in some open hi-hats. What you notice when I hold down the instrument select on this it's exactly the same as all the other ones that we have a closed an open. If I want an open what I have to do is press both of them. Now I'm on open. And what happens here is where I've actually added these open hi-hats it's removed them from the closed hi-hat. The open hi-hat will be gated by the closed hi-hat when that next triggers. So again I've got some decay control over that. Now at this point I'm not happy with the pitch of this open hi-hat but because I don't have a pitch knob on here i'm going to have to go in and do the edit again. I'm going to select edit going to move this one over to tune and hit enter now I'm ready to go on the open hi-hat and there it is. So we can tune that right down we cun tune it right up. Just leave it at its flat level there so we've already looked at how we can control the ride cymbal so let's maybe put a few of those in there. What I'm noticing on this one is the ride's actually quite quiet. So I'm going to jump in here. Edit mode again we're going to gain this time to select a ride so I got some more level on the ride now. Let's jump back out maybe turn down these decay times as well. Now the cool thing with the 909 as well the toms in them are quite useful you can make bass lines with them essentially. So let's have a look what we can do with the low tom. Let's jump in there. Let's get some level. Now let's move on to the mid And let's move over now to the hi tom If we get rid of our ride now for a second I'll just show you - So we've got just the tom's playing and what you can do here is actually tune them in. Drop that kick drum back in. Let's add some clap now. This is where it can get maybe a little bit interesting so lets try this compressor out now. Let's not go crazy and it will just leave it there. Now the snare drums also a really interesting thing to use on this it's a really nice big noisy snare drum I'm gonna actually use this more in a context of using it for build-up than you would as a snare drum. And you notice you get some really different characters out of the snare drum. So if I drop it back to that - We can also almost get sort of a tom like quality out of it as well. Let's look at the rim shot. So what we've got is actually a really powerful machine. You can get a lot done with it and it gives you that sort of classic house or techno sound it works perfectly in any track. Of course you can layer with other drum sounds in your software if you wanted to use it that way and as you can see it's actually great as a live tool as well as I mentioned you can see Jeff Mills playing these a lot and he'll play it almost with nothing else or actually for long periods with nothing else. It's really quite a versatile little machine even though only has a few sounds in it and from the point of view of someone actually using it. it's great fun it feels authentic when you stand in front of it The other thing I didn't mention before which is the crash cymbal. So just show what that sounds like. And we have a tuner for that as well. I should mention as well that on the TR-909 it wasn't a totally analog machine it was actually a hybrid. And I think it was probably one of the first machines to do that if not the first. So all the drums and the the toms and the rim shot and the clap are all analog synthesis. All the cymbols are actually little samples so you sort of have the best of both worlds. So let's have a look at a couple of other things I can do this with now that it's playing I'll just get rid of that crash cymbal. First thing I want to do is control the shuffle of this pattern. So i'm going to hold down shuffle. I can do this two different ways actually so i can either use the knob or I can use one to seven here. Just select pre-programmed values or off for number eight. The other thing we can do is get rid of all these other things. So we can have flam on any of the instruments between here. So your bass drum, snare drum and your toms. So the way I'm going to do this I'm gonna hit instrument select, gonna hit snare drum. So I press both of them to get to the flam setting. Now let's turn down everything i'm not using just so you can hear what this does. So now I just got that snare drum playing and wherever I put a trigger a step now will be a flam. And what we can do is adjust the distance of that flam - holding down this button. And that's really close together up this end. much further apart Let's turn those off There's another way we can enter patterns too - so I'd hold down shift and i'm going to hit tap so this works kind of like just by playing the drums this is probably the only thing for me where the little tiny buttons are not particularly wonderful. So what you do is we hit start. And it's as simple as that. So you just play in the rhythm that you want and then the next bar over it's in the pattern and it's quantized. So as I said it doesn't feel particularly wonderful doing it that way and I don't think a lot of people would use it that way anyway. To fix that if I wanted to do that I can jump back very easily into step mode. Start playing, select my bass drum and then I can just get rid of the extra steps I created there. So now we've all got our patterns in there one thing we probably want to do is be able to copy one pattern to another. So the problem that we have is that my first pattern here is completely different to my second pattern and I want them to be the same so I can then add some very small variations to that pattern so that when I have sequence of patterns that might just have one or two different things. What I'm going to want to do is get pattern one into the pattern two slot so this is where i'm going to want to go. First thing I do is select the destination. So that's number two so we just make sure that that's the one. Now next thing I'm going to do is hit copy so that's under number 11. Copy, now i'm going to select which pattern I want so same deal again but we want number one this time and then i'm going to hit enter to complete that. So when I go back to pattern one let's go back to pattern mode. Number two, there we go we have the same thing and then what I could do on pattern two for example let's go back into pattern write mode. We could have maybe a different pattern with let's try the crash cymbal just something really obvious. So we jump back into pattern play mode. We don't have anything on number one but the crash cymbal comes in on number two. Now what we could do is we can actually set this up so that it will just play one and two in a cyce. If I hit both of these, these will now become a grouped. So once we play through one it will move over to number two, back to one, back to number two. And so forth. Now if we wanted something even more detailed than this with more patterns we can actually create a track so in the TR-09 there are four tracks again this is the same as what was on the TR-909. So i'm going to hit track and i'll just show you how one of them works. So let's go back to this again so were back in group one and I should mention as well you can have two groups of the tracks so you have eight in total. So what you'll see is happening is we're triggering a different pattern each time this ticks over. So if we want to make our own - let's just find one that's blank let's maybe go back to bank two again, number one. Ok that's blank. We're going to enter pattern right mode and what we have here so now where you can see we've got bar 1. I'm going to select back to my patterns again so bank two, pattern one. Let's go number one. Once we're ready to write the track so I'm going to start this playing. So it's just going to sit on number one until I move to the next one. So I make sure I've got the right one selected. So I'm gonna go pattern one, move on to number two. I want to have my second pattern in there. Number three i'm gonna go with the second pattern again. Number four i'm going to go with my first pattern. Then i'm going to hit stop and I want to go back to track play mode. So i'll just do that i'm going to go back to buy a number one and off I go let's see what happens. So that's playing back a track the only other thing I haven't mentioned yet is a little knob here we have called total accent. So i'm going to actually just jump back into a pattern again. So let's go back into pattern right mode and what we're going to do - you see we have total accent on here. So you program it like it's another instrument. So we'll go instrument select, total accent. So I'm going to put these in some random places so they jump out and as I turn this knob up. There we go, so on the kick drums you can certainly notice it. You can have varying amounts of that you've got a knob here so you can control that what this does is applies accent to the step rather than to the instrument so everything that lands on that step will be amplified. Now i'm going to move over to my computer and show you how I've got this setup. So I've set up a few instruments here the important ones are going to be there is two to five. This is an external instrument i've setup in logic and the key thing we have here these are my inputs which are actually my USB outputs on the TR-09 and you can see we've got a set of five there. So I'm gonna make sure they're successive five-six, seven-either, final one will be nine and ten. The first one is if you just if you're not using that USB functionality everything will just come out of the first one. So now what I have to do is set up which instruments are going to come out of each output from this into the inputs of my computer. So I'm going to jump into menu. We''ll move down to USB one. So which ever thing is flashing is what I'm sending to that output. So at the moment I just want my bass drum only to be going to number one and this is pretty commonly how you want to use it you want to have control over that drum separately. Going to move to number two. Again I'm just going to have my snare drum so I have totally independent control of my snare drum. USB 3 i'm going to include all the instruments in the middle - so my toms, my rim shot and my clap and number four these are going to be all my cymbols. So let's just have a look what happens let's jump out of here, patterns are ready to go and we're gonna hit start. Now let's have a look at the software. You'll see I'm receiving everything in through these extra four ports here. So what we'll notice here the second one there that only has the bass drum on it. Moving down here this one only has the snare drum on it. This one is all my percussion other than the cymbals and finally this one here has just my cymbals on it. So the beauty of this thing I can edit all these separately, I can record them separately, I can apply effects of them separately if I want to do that. We've gone through pretty much everything on here now so the last thing to mention is the awesome built-in stand that you get with this. I'll show you how that works. So it's just a release here works very similar to the keyboard for the initial boutique releases. And there's the second level there. So I can have it quite upright, I can have just a medium level slight rise or I can have it flat. You can also buy these cases now separetly for the original boutique series if you want to have those instead of the keyboard. Thank's for watching - we've been looking at the TR-09 new from Roland.
