TR808.ZIP

Here are some samples I took of my Roland TR808 Rhythm Composer before I sold it last summer. You'll have to map the sounds yourself over the keyboard, but there should be enough to keep you happy. I recorded the congas, toms and so on at various different settings and pitches, and the snare drum also comes with varying amounts of snare, or "snappy" as they call it on the machine. The bass drum is sampled with different amounts of decay, from the dry disco thud to the long jungle speaker-breaker. You can probably also edit some of the endings down; I don't have my TX16W with me at present and was probably too lazy to trim the samples at the time.

Have fun!
