  • In this video I go through the ways you can work with the TR-6S' sounds to modify the drum sounds and do some cool drum designing! I talk through going in and modifying the ACB tones, talk about the Morph feature on the FM engines, and show how far you can go with samples on the TR-6S, as well as a few little tips here and there on getting a bit more out of it.

      i'm still not clear on how to actually export my own samples to the SD card , the TR6S is not showing up as a destination on my Mac the same way the TR8 apparently does with a USB connection , waht am i doing wrong ? :) thx

    • @afrohamurai
      @afrohamurai  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The TR-6S doesn’t work as an SD card reader for the computer, if you use either the SD slot built in to your computer or a USB SD card reader it should be all good 👍🏾

    Excellent! The most in-depth tutorial on sound design with the TR-6S I've found thus far. I'm really looking for a hard comparison between the TR-6S and the Model:Cycles/Samples, as that seems to be the only real contender. Of course the ACM synth engine is unique to Roland. My general impression is that the sound creation capabilities of the TR-6S is superior, but the workflow of the Elektron Model series is better. So a tough choice really...

    • @afrohamurai
      @afrohamurai  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! I think the decision comes down to if you want/use the Roland drum machines enough that having good emulations of them as opposed to samples is what you want. I don't have a use for a sampler just because I tend to use my DAW for most of it, so if I were to pick between the Cycles and Samples I'd go for the samples, but that's just my opinion.

    Very helpful, thank you. I agree it's shocking Roland didn't provide a CR78 samples/kit with all it's other classics in the TR-6S/8S. Have you made your own CR78 kit? I'd love to see a video on that. I'm struggling to find a list of all the sounds on that unit, so not sure what I'll need to make one for my TR8S.

    Nice tutorial! Can you set panning on a per step level within a track, or just on the track level? I like to place hats in different places in the stereo field and alternate the placement in variation patterns. Thanks!

    • @afrohamurai
      @afrohamurai  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could probably use motion step by step? That would be the best way I would think to do it

    those faders are making me think this might be a good performance tool. looking for my first drum synth and im looking at the uno. conversely i might just dive in and get a digitakt rather than upgrade. but this seems to have a lot of depth for its price bracket. subbed the channel though, excellent in depth video.

    • @afrohamurai

      I’ve been able to use it so much for stuff on its own, as well as with my other synth. It’s really fun to use 😀

    Hey man, great tutorial! Can you say to me please - is it possible to chain more than 6 sounds at one time? for example, two variations playing in one time?

    • @afrohamurai
      @afrohamurai  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not that I can see - you could technically load two different kits in different patterns and chain those instead of variations, but within one pattern the variations use the same 6 sounds

      @@afrohamurai that's bad( I thought it was realized here, so now I'm thinking how to be, or use it with VST/AU drum machines or add mc707 for example for getting maximum drums from hardware

    Is there any way to put Reverb and Delay on a single sound???

    • @afrohamurai
      @afrohamurai  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not that I saw, the only way to “maybe” do it is to turn off all of the delay and reverb sends on the other sounds so you’re only sending one sound to the Kit’s reverb

  • @vertigev
    @vertigev 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can the TR-6S do note probability/chance? Can't find anything about that but it's a pretty basic drum machine function so I'm sure it can. I've all over mine though and I can't it :/

    • @afrohamurai
      @afrohamurai  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don’t think it has that from looking at it - that’s the one thing that the TR-06 has that I wish this had as well :(
