Roland was founded as a manufacturer of various musical instruments and studio equipment on 18 April 1972 in Osaka, Japan. Among the earliest products to reach the market were the first rhythm machines of the TR series, whose successors TR-808, TB-303 and TR-909 had a decisive influence on the techno, electro and hip-hop scenes. In the mid-1970s the JC-120 Jazz Chorus guitar amplifier was developed, whose ultra-clear sound together with the built-in chorus effect won over both Andy Summers of The Police and Kirk Hammett and James Hetfield of Metallica. Since then and to this day Roland have continuously expanded their catalogue across a wide range of fields such as digital pianos, grooveboxes, e-drums and synthesizers with high-quality and interesting products.

Einfach zu bedienen, gute Sache da wir viel in kleinen Venues spielen, da habe ich auch etwas leiser keinen schlechten Druck mit meiner Bass Drum. Den Loop finde ich gut, der ermöglicht mir von den Drums weg zu gehen und kann selber am Sound aus der PA schrauben.
Tolles Teil. Wenn es z.B. mit dem Bassmik kein zufriedenes Ergebnis zu erzielen ist, mit dem Roland TM-2 Trigger Module gelingt es absolut perfekt.
