Roland TR-1000 Rhythm Creator | Everything You Need to Know
Meet the TR-1000 Rhythm Creator, Roland’s most advanced drum machine ever. Built from the ground up with input from influential artists and the community, the TR-1000 combines analog warmth, digital precision, stereo sampling, and deep sequencing in a single modern instrument. Whether you're a producer, performer, or sound designer, this is the rhythm machine you've been waiting for.
The shape of sound to come.
From the foundational to the experimental, the TR-1000 does it all. Conceive, create, and perform with a complete range of premium drum sounds, powered by analog, digital, and sampling engines with advanced tone-shaping and layered track architecture.
Stepping up.
The TR-1000’s advanced sequencer expands the legendary TR workflow with a focus on feel and flexibility. Program sounds fast, perform with intent, and shape rhythms in real time using extensive pattern tools, expressive controls, and deep timing options.
Dynamic pattern control.
Intuitive tools give you the power to program grooves that breathe and evolve with every pass. Use motion recording to capture live parameter changes for modulation and movement. Control how each track progresses with direction settings like forward, reverse, pendulum, and more. Define cycle conditions to determine when steps play and tap into per-step probability to introduce variation and surprise.
Get off the grid.
From machine-locked rhythms to grooves with a human feel, the TR-1000 flows smoothly with your timing preferences. Use quantization to keep things tight. Or turn it off to capture natural rhythmic variations. Dial in shuffle per track to apply distinct amounts of swing and instantly shift playback timing left/right for quick variations and new rhythmic feels.
Seamless sync.
Keep your entire studio or live setup unified with the TR-1000 as the centerpiece. Thanks to a wide range of connectivity options, you can effortlessly lock with Eurorack hardware, vintage gear, and DAWs.
Song mode.
The TR-1000 introduces a comprehensive song mode for hands-free playback of complex arrangements, bringing a new level of performance freedom to multi-instrumentalists, singers, and hybrid performers. Link patterns and variations in any order, repeat sections, and build full tracks with ease.
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.
