The Roland TR-727 Rhythm Composer, released in 1985, is celebrated for its distinctive Latin percussion sounds that have influenced a wide range of musical styles including tribal, acid house, pop, and techno. This classic drum machine has also become a go-to instrument for afrobeat, reggaeton, and various contemporary genres. Now recreated with Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) technology, it delivers the authentic character and detailed sound of the original hardware directly within your digital audio workstation.

This software version uses the original TR-727 sample ROM, featuring all 15 original percussion sounds and 64 classic patterns. It also includes 43 new patterns and kits designed for modern musical styles, expanding creative possibilities. Enhanced controls such as tuning, decay, gain, and sample rate adjustment allow users to shape sounds with precision. The built-in sequencer offers advanced features like flams, sub-steps, last step, and per-instrument shuffle, making rhythm programming intuitive and expressive.

The plugin supports drag-and-drop functionality for audio and MIDI patterns, simplifying workflow integration with your DAW. Visual customization includes original and aged skins along with LCD-style sequencer windows, preserving the vintage feel. Multiple output routing options enable flexible effects processing with popular plugin suites. Compatible with VST3, AU, and AAX formats, it also provides native support for Apple silicon, ensuring smooth performance across major production platforms.
