    Roland TR-707Published on 05/01/13 at 03:10
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    - Midi in / out
    - 10x + 1 1 audio out L / R out
    - Headphone output
    - Output trig via block of the rimshot
    - Input-output "type" (very convenient but another time) to tape backup (or the mpc in my case)
    - 15 sounds available non-editable (except the mixer section)
    - Very groovy kind Sequencer Roland TR
    - Backup M-64C cartridge (but OCCAZ price is downright delirium should relax).

    UTILIZATION

    - Very simple configuration, the editing functions are accessed via the shift key.
    - Very clear and didactic manual as usual brand.
    - The famous TR sequencer has not been matched to this day, it is a great pleasure to make beats with this type of sequencer.

    - The famous TR sequencer has not been matched to this day, it is a great pleasure to make beats with this type of sequencer.

    SOUNDS

    - Sounds TR 707, with a big plus compared to samples (I have mpc and BAR digital / analog), say what you want but the 707 has an incredible potato. Coupled with proper reverb you get a very professional result and its incommensurate. My next three albums were composed on average of 30 minutes each, no compresion the plug, mini eq (but my table has very good eq) in short we spend more time having fun than trying have a big potato on the console, as stated above this machine has a huge sin.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I owned and sold x times. I have a lot of machines, the coolest feature, sound and sequencer, the less cool, I do not know ... The price is really too OCCAZ pushed, do not fool around, this machine is great but EXTREMELY limited. The 90s revival of time Pernet speculators sometimes LITTLE STRICT to make money on the back bushel who wants to pay his 707 to the boyz noize .. I think we need to know before buying this machine if you end up with a machine that will do a very strong type of sound. For most bushels who feel too Roland, pay you samples, or think because due to its very exaggerated side, to know what we do or do shit dad for the money ..

    Let's be clear, this machine is very widely surcotée.

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple, it changes all the other stuff with foo foo submenus

    SOUNDS

    I achteter tr707 the first trigger for my Yamaha CS5 (happiness). After I buy a console Behringer UB-1204 FX Pro with built-in effects to which I connect the separate output of TR707 and I can assure you that I thoroughly m'éclatte! The sound is beautiful. I finally find the Kick and Hihat I had long sought.

    OVERALL OPINION

    If I loose I resume, except perhaps an R8

    -Has he an effects section?

    not worry and better! then separated out to treat externally no problem

    - What are the characteristics of the sequencer?

    mortellll! Reputation séquanceurs TR maintenent I know what others speak;)

    UTILIZATION

    - The general configuration is it simple?

    yes the manual explains everything
    - The manual is clear and sufficient?

    For my part so nothing to say I used from that in French a few spas tradui change but overall it's very compréensible I think.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This is my first TR doi I say it is too much I guess Roland séquanceur level of 808 and 909 I understand better now why the other brands do not mieu her.

    I just say I was 100% metrizable all functions no longer a secret to me, after hours of programing I press START op There's a rhythmic song and programmed Complete Edition that comes out without touching the TR- FAU 707 but really want this and take the lead after j'adorrrree headache insured but the result is there.

    frankly the TR-707 ammene creativity that has no doubt, but always well understood by fau if we do not do much with.

    For my part, I buy 150 euro + 20 shipping is almost new I reviends maintenent O_O not that I metrizable bhein yes it's your 150 euros out these compten I am with my purchase and plans to invest in to Another TR

    Lunch, Din, and separate outputs for each volume, battery for memory.

    UTILIZATION

    Is pretty easy to use. The are not edited, so the sequences.

    SOUNDS

    It takes at least a table with good EQ behind and there it sounds and it becomes flexible.
    The sounds were fishing.
    With EQ, reverb, compression and it sounds very, very current. BD, SD, AND HH sound great with the previous effects. It has become indispensable to me.
    So I hesitate for a 909 or to change it by diabolical devices.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I do not regret my purchase. I have long scoured the flea markets to find it but no way, so I dropped € 180 and I do not regret it because it suits me.

    I can pass the 909 but it was not sure because I have a airbase99 that is highly complementary. Always

    - Can the sound be edited?

    No and it's good so!!

    - Does the unit have an effects section?

    No and it's good so!! Separate outputs so external processing is not a problem.

    - Sequencer features:

    Amazing!!! I had heard about the reputation of TR sequencers but now I know firsthand what ll that talk is about ;)

    UTILIZATION

    - Is it easy to make settings?

    Yes, the user's manual explains everything.

    - Is the user's manual clear and comprehensive?

    I can't complain, I find it very clear.

    SOUNDS

    Do the presets fit your music style?

    No problem in my case: Acid, house, vintage electro, etc.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's my first TR and I find this Roland product amazing. The sequencer is mind blowing and I can only imagine the possibilities with a 808 or a 909. I understand why other manufacturers can't compete with it.

    I can say now that I have mastered the unit and I know every function. After spending hours programming it I simply push the start button and I get fully programmed and edited beats out of the TR-707. I needed a long time to learn how to use it but it was worth it.

    It's true that the TR-707 enhances your creativity, but before you get to that point you must understand how it works otherwise you won't get too far.

    I bought it secondhand at an incredible price. Now that I've mastered it, I'm very happy with my purchase and I plan to buy another TR.
