There's a rumor from a reputable source on GS that this will have 16 analog drums, around 100 ACB instruments, 46GB of sample storage, and individual outs. If that's all true and the price tag is $2,500 USD ($3,500 CN), I might be tempted...

Yes, but how many notes of polyphony? I hate when I'm playing two handed-cymbal chords and the incoming cymbals choke my decaying ones like a cheap sears and roebuck hi-hat.cryophonik wrote: Mon Sep 29, 2025 3:30 pm There's a rumor from a reputable source on GS that this will have 16 analog drums, around 100 ACB instruments, 46GB of sample storage, and individual outs.

For me to buy a $2k+ drum machine in 2025 it needs to have a tiny little man, or woman, no sexism here, inside playing on tiny little acoustic kit. I need to see proper vintage tiny little microphones. Yes, it's ok if I have to drop tiny little bud lights into a little opening in the top to get them to play.

I'm going to guess 808, or maybe 909? Oooh, maybe it's 1000-note polyphony!

It must be 1000 notes, anything less would be insufficient, obviously.cryophonik wrote: Mon Sep 29, 2025 3:53 pmI'm going to guess 808, or maybe 909? Oooh, maybe it's 1000-note polyphony!

TR-1000 Rhythm Creator continues the legacy of the legendary Roland Drum Machines and combines analog warmth, digital precision and flexible sampling in a powerful, cross-genre instrument. The TR-1000 combines classic workflows with modern sound design, making it the ultimate platform of the next generation - the future is back and in your hands.
Features:
The most comprehensive and powerful Roland Drum Machine ever
Newly developed analog engine with TR-808 and TR-909 sounds, expanded with new parameters and wider dynamic range
ACB modeling engine with 21 revised 8X and 9X models for creative sound variations
FM, VA, and PCM engines for bass lines, synth sounds, and digital textures
Modern sampler with over 2,000 sounds, stereo sampling/resampling, BPM sync, time stretching and slice editing
46 GB storage space for user samples
TR-REC step sequencer with off-grid control, motion recording, probability and flexible track start options
Four layer tracks for advanced sound design
Analog and digital effects including state-variable filter (SVF), Analog Drive, reverb, delay and more
Performance tools: Morph-Slider, Snapshots, Step-Loop
Extensive audio I/Os: stereo mix output, separate instrument and effect outputs, stereo inputs
MIDI I/O, Trigger I/O, DIN Sync, Clock Out and CV Input
USB-C multi-channel audio/MIDI interface and flexible USB device port
Robust metal housing with durable controls
Integration with TR-1000 software for managing and editing sounds
Future-proof thanks to regular firmware updates and extensions
Special features:
Analog circuits: 16 carefully reconstructed TR-808 and TR-909 voices with modern headroom
Advanced digital engines: ACB, FM, VA and PCM for maximum creative leeway
Powerful effects: combination of analog filters, drive, modern effects and send/return-FX
Flexible sequencer options: TR-REC, real-time recording, off-grid steps and probability
Performance-oriented operation: fader, encoder, morph-slider and snapshots for live jams
Versatile connectivity: Audio single outputs, CV/Trigger, MIDI, DIN Sync, USB-C
The Roland TR-1000 is the perfect blend of past and future: analog sound generation, modern digital technologies and a flexible workflow that opens up unlimited possibilities for beatmakers, producers and live performers.

It's big enough to have a little man inside, are you sure there isn't one there?

It looks like they have gone all in on this one but it is not for me.
I have already created the drumkits i need over the years on my hardware and in Software so i don't want to waste more time with a new drum box just to create similar drumkits all over again.
It is a excellent choice for the people that want a external Drum Machine with a lot of extra cool stuff in it so i am happy they released something for you and not for me this time and i think Roland will sell a lot of these
