Selected User Reviews For Behringer Electronic Drum Controller (RD-6-AM)
It's just a clone of the original that's improved. When you look at the original TR 606, you will realize that it actually wasn't that good of a drum machine for its price point. The interface was made out of cheap plastic, the sounds were untweakable, and the price was ridiculous for what the device offered. As prices crashed in the early 90s, Acid House musicians took advantage of the situation by making these machines the hot machines ** Behringer has announced the RD-38, a new studio monitor This version actually improves on the original due to a distortion section and a semi-automatic distortion function The idea of the 606 is still there, but would this be a 606 without the cheap plastic construction? Using A/B sound comparison, you can hear that the sound is nearly identical to the original. The only thing that makes it "nearly" wrong is that the clap from the Boss rhythm machine ended up precisely on the In other words, not only is the gain shared by both, but so is the output as well. The setup of a live jam mix can be a bit frustrating, but if that is the worst thing this machine can do, I am willing to put up with it. The distortion section is nice and crunchy. Additionally, the pattern creation is as straightforward as it can be. The kit was out of the box and I was able to make music in less than five Besides being cute, yellow is a good colour as well. The original was made with easily tarnished silver. The sequel is much more fun. It looks like a clone, doesn't it? In fact, yes. However, Roland overcharges for nostalgia anyway, and at the end of the day, Behringer actually improved both the 303 and 606 in many ways.
Not at all. You cannot edit As long as it does what it should, it is fine. Nevertheless, it is a very nice idea. There are full USB and MIDI capabilities, which lets you use it as a standalone synth, connect it to a DAW, and play the drums manually manually using There are a limited number of them, but they're It's worth the effort because of that. You can spend an extra two to three hundred dollars on the features you can't find in the other units if you want to do more with them. There is no way to knock this, however, due to the low price. You get a genuine analogue drum machine, even if you just play with it. It's still worth picking one up even if it's only used as a toy.
I like the sound when it is It's sad to see this, they brought back a pretty decent clone, but no one actually trusted using it live. This was so poorly produced. Switches that feel flaky and a case that feels like it could collapse at any second.
As cheap as possible was their goal, which is a shame, since it sounds The audio sometimes doesn't work until you turn off the distortion - I've recently received this and sometimes it doesn't work at all. Slide the switch hard or press down on it. I was going to return it to you, but I can't imagine the current model lasting longer than 12 months. In order to make this feel and be more reliable, it would have only taken $25 to increase the price. Those were created to go in the landfill, so there will be no vintage ones - It's too bad. The TD-2017 in conjunction with this Despite the fact that 3 is junk, at least the majority of their other.
This is awesome.
In my opinion this is probably fine, given the low price. However, I would have delighted if Behringer were to charge a few more dollars for their current batch of clones, and upgrade the build quality by another factor. Behringer, on the other hand, has a highly regarded product line It has a well-deserved reputation as a bargain basement brand, but as they say,.
It's irritating that you can't customize the sounds, but the sounds sound good, and it's easy The potential of the sound can be accessed only through reverb and delay. It really is just a matter of creativity for you. Of course, there are better drum machines out there, but if you prefer the vintage flavor or just want it to complement your TD3, here it is. I wish you all the best. Peace to you.
There are a lot of YouTube videos on how it works. Behringer rocks for the price and it's definitely the way to go.
When you close your eyes, turn back the clock roughly 30 years and hear the strange acid loops of the TB303 & TB404, you can almost see and hear what worked on your mind at the time If you can get it's big sibling/brother (you decide) the TR606, then you might be able to capture those vibes at a price that's affordable. With Behringer's clone of the TR606, you get the same sound as the original with a small amount of distortion and an extra handclap. Let's start with the basics. It's an analog camera. There is no power source, and the only difference between the drum sounds is the distortion you can choose. It also has a rather limited amount of internal memory for pattern storage. The pattern is made up of 16 steps. Yes, it sounds limiting, but there are ways to get In the back you will find 6 mini jacks for the various drum sounds. You can now further flavor your sound by plugging in a cable and routing it to other guitar pedals, FX units, filters, compressors, etc. You have a sync in/out on the front panel, and if you're into modular gear, you'll find a low & high jack on the back panel. It is possible to trigger your CV synths from high toms. Also features a clap from the Boss DR110 drum machine. Connect this to your TD3 or MS1, or your Korg Volcas, and you have something that would cost you a down payment on a new vehicle However, this is a good investment for you. Your patterns can be easily backed up from USB if you have a digital audio workstation. There are a bunch of colors to choose from as well. You can capture the sound of the 606 with this drum machine if you can live with some of its limitations. you want a RD8 or RD9 (808/909 clones) or you want the sound on your RD8 or RD9. No matter what your style is -- Electro, Breaks, House, Techno -- it's worth considering. It may not be rock or metal you prefer. The drum kit doesn't sound anything like an acoustic kit (except for the sound. )
Have fun if you buy it!.
