Roland R-8

Released in 1989

The R-8 is a drum machine with 32 preset rhythms and 100 programmable rhythm patterns. Note that there were two versions of the R-8, an earlier model, and a later model (serial numbers AA02400 and higher). Some parts are not interchangeable between the versions; our list specifies if a particular part works in only one version.

In 1993, Roland released the R-8 Mk II, which expanded the number of programmable patterns to 200.

We stock both NEW and USED parts; all used electronic parts are tested and guaranteed working.

This listing reflects our current inventory and is updated in real time. If a part is shown as Out of Stock, we typically don't know when or if we might have it again - but click on the part for more info, and then you will be able to sign up for an alert when we do have it available again. By including out of stock parts in our listings, we hope to offer customers a more complete and useful resource.

We cannot diagnose repair issues by phone or email. For technical questions, we suggest posting on our Forums, where our techs - as well as other users - can offer help.
