New Roland AIRA Compact: T8, E4 and J6

 

The new Roland AIRA Compact Series includes the T-8, E-4 and J-6 which build on the legacy of classic Roland sounds from the TR808, TR909, TB303 and Juno drum machines & synths.

The T-8 includes sounds from the TR-808 and 909 classic drum machines, the E-4 builds on the TR3 and TR4 voice transformers and the J in the J-6 stands for JUNO!

Between them, these have been responsible for a massive amount of both classic and contemporary electronic music, hip-hop, pop music and beyond.
