So my new 8raw8 has 11 instruments and 1 accent level … perfect example of why we need more than 8 drum lanes. been asking for it for 2+ years …
Pick a number and get in line 
There are many topics about this, and you asked many times as you say yourself. Re-asking won’t accomplish much more but venting your personal frustration with it. Lets hope next release will bring it, supposedly its going to be “big”
It’s fun to vent! 
Many drum machines are in this predicament. For me it’s the behringer RD-9 and syntakt
Pretty much every drum machine I have exceeds the limit … I really can’t understand what Squarp were thinking with 8 lanes.
