Roland is back with the TR-1000 Rhythm Creator, their first true-analog drum machine in over 40 years, and maybe their most advanced yet.It blends the warmth of classic 808 and 909 circuits with ACB models, FM percussion, sampling tools, and a powerful hybrid sequencer. We dig into what makes this machine such a big moment for Roland and how it fits into the modern beat-making landscape.Then in our Round Robin discussion, we ask a bigger question: Has hardware innovation hit a wall?With so many remakes and retro re-issues, are manufacturers truly pushing forward — or are we just stuck chasing nostalgia?Join us for a deep dive into the TR-1000 and a candid chat about where hardware creativity goes next.Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation:💌 audionauticsounds@gmail.com 🐤 Twitter @Audionautic📸 Instagram: @audionauticsounds📡Discord: https://discord.gg/Kr4CrthQSunwarper: https://sunwarper.comKh3rtis: https://kh3rtis.com
