  • I got my Behringer RD-8 last Wednesday and had an extensive live test last night. The result was this 40-minute live jam, from Electro to Oldschool House. What a great device, I love my RD-8!

    This guy... can take a single unit. No FX. No sneaky MIDI. And make it SING! If you like this you have to catch his acid live set with the RD-6 and the TD-3. That is also pure class. Kudos my dude. Behringer should have this guy on the payroll.

      Fifty Cycle, I agree. Funny thing about chord progressions: there‘s not a single one in this jam, yet I‘d call it good music. James Brown‘s hits weren‘t too strong on chord progressions either. But I DO agree with you! 😃

      IDK, never thought I'd say this, but go listen to the "Roland TR-8S Berlin Sessions Steffi". Maybe it's a question of dry vs compressed, but the TR-8S sounds really good, and it's more reliable box MIDI wise that doesn't need tons of analog inputs to record.

      @@marike1100 You don't need lots of outputs to record the RD-8; using the individual outputs is optional. The simple fx built in are (to my ear) a bit feeble and imprecise, but if you connect it up to the usual filter chains you would for other drum machines, the awesomeness of the RD-8 is clear.

But this experience is something you only get with this machine, and seems pretty fun!

      Whoa now I wouldn't lump Jomox or Moog into the same category here. Moog doesn't do drum machines at all, and while Jomox is expensive, they're a boutique shop and are legitimately innovating. What Behringer did here is basically the exact opposite end of the spectrum from Jomox and is only feasible because of Behringer's massive resources and production scale. There's simply no way Jomox or Moog COULD do what Behringer is doing, even if they were *trying* to go bankrupt in the process.
