+ | I've started using [[Reaper]] to sequence the TR-8. Makes it less fuss to save and backup presets, lets you store knob positions, lets you change those values over time. | ||

+ | ==== Output Channel ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Instead of send all the instruments to both channels you can send particular ones (including the external in/s) to particular channels, allowing you to mix them differently. | ||
+ | |||
+ | After booting into settings hold the A and B buttons to assign things. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Anything not assigned will go to the regular mix output. If you take advantage of panning, by panning things completely to the left or right, this effectively gives you four outputs. | ||
