Roland R8 - The Autechre drum machine

Many videos have been made about the R8. Everyone wanted it, it's a piece of bad gear, lots of stuff about programming a basic beat... however I haven't seen any that attempt to explain Autechre on it. This video is the companion to another one -    • Autechre - Crystel - Roland R8 S1 hardware...   - where I cover Crystel. Hopefully it explains a few things about the machine, how you get those weird sounds out of it, and some of the sequencing capabilities of it. The R8 is a really solid machine, once you get past the 80s sounding drums, and deserves its place in the classic Roland drum machine line-up System Exclusive for my version of Crystel is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z3pq... Should work with any Mk1 R8, I extracted and tested it with MIDI-OX - see the R8 manual on how to get the file onto your machine. It's not 100% but is pretty close DAWless intro jam is the (new) Roland S1, Behringer 303, Alesis Quadraverb and R8, all synced by the R8 MIDI clock. Please ping questions in the comment below and I'll do my best to answer them! Thanks for watching!
