    This is the best overview done on the TR-6S. This is being undersold based on the functionality shown here. Great job Roland!

    What a GREAT demo! Roland has really put some deep thought into the workflow....very, VERY well done Roland. This instrument is so well thought out! The system doesn't function like a bunch of after-thoughts throw in, it functions as a cohesive human workflow. I am an Korg Electribe2 (blue) user, and really love the Korg, but there are many limitations that need help, I was thinking about adding a few VolcaBass synths or an ArturiaDrumBrute to the MIDI out to reinforce the weaker sounds...but...this Roland TR with ACB should do fine as a reinforcement with much better effects too. One thing about ACB is ...if you think it sounds a little weak, just layer another ACB on top and you will get a very strong drum. The TR6 allows us to insert up to 4 layers on a a single step on a single track (4 part multi-timbral per track) how this works overall I don't know it comes out to 64x6 or 384 note polyphony, which I doubt, there must be a limit to adding 4 layers of instruments per step.

    NICE. This is the best tutorial out there. This is even better than the manual. Thank You.
    Such a fun little box! I totally did not need one of these. I have a ridiculous amount of great gear. But I love this box mainly for its portability. I carry this powerful little box around everywhere I go and just pull it out and jam all the time. I bring it to work, in the car, etc.
    I make stuff while I’m out and about and use it later in bigger projects once I’m back home w/ all my gear.
    Awesome
    Thanks for the great tutorial too!
    Much needed and appreciated.

    I was following along with this demo but when trying out the Reverb Send and Delay Send options, nothing happens (@17:28). edit: I figured it out. You set Reverb Send and Delay Send on an per instrument basis. But these effects are eventually controlled together on the kit level. So if the kit Reverb and Delay level are off, you don't get the effect. On the kit level you can also let the delay effect go through the reverb effect again.

  • @chroma-agogo
    @chroma-agogo 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I'm becoming very interested in this. I love Roland drum tones (all of them), but when I used a TR-8 I found myself twiddling about with parameters and stuff too much when recording (I ended up looping parts where I didn't), so the reduced layout might actually do me good. Most things seem pretty easy to access when you want to

  • @severeflows
    @severeflows 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I currently own an elektron model cycles, and although I do like a lot of the functionality and sounds on that machine this machine seems to blow it out of the water, it’s almost like the model cycles and model samples combined plus all the great Roland sounds. Near perfect, only thing I would miss if I switch to this from elektron is control all, probability, and the ability to play samples chromatically. Do I replace my model cycles with the trs6 or add the model samples to my set up? And now with korg working on the drumlogue I might have to wait before making my decision. Great video and demonstration thank you

    Questions: if each instrument track (channel 1-6) can have it's own midi channel assigned, can each sound then be played chromatically via and external midi keyboard? or... How can I have say 3 pitch toms recorded on the 'LT' track...the presets seem to suggest it can be done, I just can't work it out. Be great to be able to change the pitch of the clap throughout a pattern to. How is it done please?

    • @longandmcquade
      @longandmcquade  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Motion Recording is a feature that can be used on TUNE, DECAY, and 1 additional CTRL parameter per track. That is what you are hearing in the preset patterns, changing the TUNE or COARSE TUNE on each step. You cannot control this with MIDI notes coming from a keyboard.

    If you said it has the same power that TR-8s, where I can use all 11 sounds at the same time? I didn't found it anywhere, learnead everything but not found the way how can I use more than only 6 sounds in same time

    • @longandmcquade
      @longandmcquade  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The sound generation/engines on each track are the same as the TR-8S and just as powerful, as are the available effects and sequencing capabilities. However, you are correct that the track count is 6 on the TR-6S, and 11 on the TR-8S, which is the main area in which they differ, along with the amount of hands-on controls and well as analog inputs/outputs.

      The TR-6S has multi-channel USB audio and MIDI, so you have options depending on your workflow - record individual audio of each part, or even the MIDI sequences of each part to be edited in your DAW. Audio (Main stereo only) and MIDI over 5-Pin is also an option using a separate audio/MIDI interface.

      The default kits have each instrument’s delay and reverb send active. This is to get immediate results when turning up the master delay or reverb knob. We have already passed this feedback direclty to Roland, as this is an understandable frustration. Thanks!

    Consider that Roland haven't improved sound-wise / emulation-wise on even their most basic legacy gear (TB-03 and TB-3, anyone? Didn't think so...).
    Apart from the non-challenging samples of 505/707/727 Roland have _still_ not managed to create a virtual TR/CR that has been in any way indistinguishable from the original. What a waste of a legacy.
