In 1980 Mr. Nakamura designed the >>analog voice circuit<< for Roland īs classic drummachine TR808. The TR808 became so popular in hip-hop and techno that you can find renditions or imitations of its sound sound in all kinds of conteporary sample libraries and synth sound sets. Hip-hop and techno gave the TR-808 a new reputation and life. Five percussion sounds characterize the state of the 808: the hum kick, the ticky snare, the tishy hi-hats (open and closed), and the spacy cow bell. Low, mid, and high toms, congas, a rim shot, claves, a handclap, maracas, and cymbal fill out the 808īs sonic complete.
