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.
this performance is absolutely mind-blowing! you ride the rd-8 like a rocket .. didn't think one can use just a drum machine as a solo instrument .. but this performance would set any dance floor on fire 🔥
thanks a lot jakob! you might enjoy this jam with the roland TR-09 as well which i recorded some months ago. similar concept ;) ruclips.net/video/sswmVCY6jbI/видео.html
I take your point but the _like a rocket_ simile is way off compared to my own rocket riding experience which was more of a _Oh, shhhhh.....ttt! I'm gonna die !_ kinda thing.
It's amazing how you've basically put together a whole set on just this thing. That build up and breakdown at about 26:30 was a highlight, so so good. This machine is now at the top of my list thanks to you.
And that is how you do a jam video! I don’t think anyone on record has played the RD-8 this well since it’s release. This should be used as the official demo for this machine! You are brilliant my friend! Ps my first ever comment on a gear video
Dirtbox but Honestly thank you! I was being put off by all the people saying the RD-8 has midi sync issues but watching you play the living hell out of it I’m going to buy it anyway! :)
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! 😃
Dayum, just ordered mine. Can't wait. I had some korg volcas before and was really disappointed, but then I came across this beauty. Exactly what I was looking for
@0:40 I already shake my ass in front of my screen, proper electro pattern. Can't wait to get mine! Really great demo btw, your channel looks fun just subscribed.
MEGA ! Ich hatte mir eigentlich dein rd 9 unboxing Video angeschaut, weil ich mir die eigentlich kaufen wollte, jetzt bin ich mir aber nicht mehr ganz so sicher.
Great groove! ;) I imagine this RD-8 With the new 303 clone from behringer,... ;) Uli Behringer is king, making more people get into music at a great price and quality,.. big respect to ya´ Dirtbox
.... too late Cosmic, the proverbial horse has already bolted ... anyway, mine's due on my doorstep tomorrow!! Can't wait - Thanks / Danke Uli !!! 😎🎹👍🎶
Heftig geil. Ich war immer gegen ne 808, dachte die ist mir zu ... stumpf. Gut, dass ich heute eine günstig gekauft und dein Video gesehen habe. Ich nehme alles zurück. Du groovst richtig.
Was thinking about the purchasing the Roland version just for midi and sound over usb...but after seeing this video...Wow you can see the man had serious fun jamming....that’s what it’s all about with music....the vibe!! Awesome job bro!
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. Roland gave the world the 808. Behringer gave it to the people.
@@marike1100 Those Berlin sessions are amazing. They really highlight what a strong bit of gear the TR-8S and is a nice counterpoint to the analog RD-8. The fact one can affordably have BOTH is pretty awesome all its own.
@@marike1100 apples and oranges, Steffi is playing a pre programmed set/song using melodies and I think even a syncussion, she could have made 90% in ableton and then just unload stuff to the sample slots, you could do the exact same set on a Digitakt for that matter or even an MPC. But this experience is something you only get with this machine, and seems pretty fun!

This jam sells machines! Excellent job sir!
Exactly!! I really don't need this instrument but I want is so bad!
Just ordered mine and I can confirm it was this vid that sealed the deal. Great work!!
Damn.. Egyptian Lover now has to watch his back! Killed this set man!
Indeed hahaha!!!
best rd-8 demo I've seen so far. I'm buying it after seeing this this
I also buy this now at the time. This live jam is awesome great and really the Best rd 8 Demo
Crafting a whole ass bass line and melody out of synthetic drum hits. Incredible!!!!
superbe, a live set ! so, classy ! ! one of the best 808 elctro demo
Holy shit. Behringer should hire you as showroom master!

Exactly ! 😉😉😉😉😉
Who would thumbs down this? Fantastic jam my friend. That drum machine is superb. I need one.
People who spent $3500+ for an original 808 would probably give this a thumbs down. 🤣😉
@@timk8021 What you said. 110% correct. :D
It was Roland!!!

Bought my RD-8 because of this video.
Me too \m/
How do you like it?

thank you very much, sir!

incredible session !! i would love to see a session like that also with RD 9
Great Jam. It’s like a DJ without the turn tables.
Behringer are the no1 they bring back the 70/80 stuffs what we need in music todays
Omg the garbage that’s called music today is embarrassing , take away the autotune and copy past melodies and there’s no content or quality.
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! 😃
Keeping the beat so fresh it makes the DJs jealous. Masterful.
You are just AMAZING Sir ! A single-box live ... smooth transitions ... B&W ... filmed like a pro ! God bless you !
thanks ean!
Dayum, just ordered mine. Can't wait. I had some korg volcas before and was really disappointed, but then I came across this beauty. Exactly what I was looking for
This is truly an RD-8 / 808 master class. Every moment is absolutely on point, the entire set so dynamic and evolving. Incredibly inspiring.
thank you very much :)
This is so dope. I’ve been on the fence about getting one but this sealed the deal for me.
Hi Stefan. Sooper dooper fantastique, thanks.
Very inspirational; I think I'll be getting out my bass tonight to jam along!
I got mine yesterday and wow this thing sounds amazing, im loving it.
Very nice. Been waiting for someone to post an electro jam with the RD8.
Yep.....everyone's head is bobbing involuntarily
Nice last name 😉
Agreed, can't help it
Some great patterns and transitions! Shows what this machine is capable of, some of these would get a dance floor moving with the drums alone ;-)
Sold. Your jam has convinced me I must get the RD-8
Great demo, one of the best.
Crazy Mad Skills! Insanely Good.
I want this machine! And I already have a TR 808. Thanks for the video. Behringer should feature it.
I think its great to see the love for electronic music across all generations. I bought this machine too, can't wait to make some funky jams
Outstanding!
from Japan and I'm 20, I bought RD-8 because of this video. really nice jam :)
Arigato gozaimasu ;)
Amazing groove! Way to work it. The swing sounds so good on the patterns.
@0:40 I already shake my ass in front of my screen, proper electro pattern. Can't wait to get mine! Really great demo btw, your channel looks fun just subscribed.
Props for the username and actually knowing what real Electro is!
Bro you killed this joint!
This is so dope, mine is on the way can’t wait to learn start learning and playing!!
Marvelous set!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.
*Pure rhythm
*Nice equalization.
Excellent work, and you kept it fresh for 40 minutes.
MEGA ! Ich hatte mir eigentlich dein rd 9 unboxing Video angeschaut, weil ich mir die eigentlich kaufen wollte, jetzt bin ich mir aber nicht mehr ganz so sicher.
the rd8 is a great machine, and worth every cent..
love mine!
Really really good man. You've showed me that I definitely need to buy a RD8.
Well done, love this, you rock!
Great jam session! Making me want an rd-8 even tho I just got the Rd-9 🤣
groovin n schoolin. thank you Dirtbox!
This just sold me... hope Behringer know they owe you big time :)
... 40 minutes too short. Epic Dirtbox, epic! Love my RD-8 too!! Be safe & enjoy the Lockdown .... 🖐😷🎶🍻🌍
the old school breaker in me approves, behringer just shipped mine yesterday, happy days all you die hard electro heads.
Great groove! ;) I imagine this RD-8 With the new 303 clone from behringer,... ;) Uli Behringer is king, making more people get into music at a great price and quality,.. big respect to ya´ Dirtbox
This video is the reason I bought an RD-8. Great jam!
This is pure madness!! Can't stop dancing!!
Great sounds looks like I got to wait til October for mine over here in Japan.
You're gonna make me buy one... badass beats!
Very Good ! 👋👌🙏 That' s an old school killer ! Congratulations....
the first few minutes got me remembering those 80s freestyle jams like TKA, Shannon,etc
Nice job I have mine and it rocks with my tb-303 dinsync
This video is absolutely sick... Incredible programming mate love this
very good stuff. inspirational ;)
fantastic work
That s why you need more machines and less plugins ... Great job ! 😱❤️👏🏻
Hello Roland, wake up!
Dankeschön für Dein gutes Demo.
.... too late Cosmic, the proverbial horse has already bolted ... anyway, mine's due on my doorstep tomorrow!! Can't wait - Thanks / Danke Uli !!! 😎🎹👍🎶
@@theaudioeng But saying that I bet a lot of fans would still buy a Roland analog 808 and 909 if they made a remake. I would.
@@maccagrabme It's Coming!
Lovely jam mate. The 808, such a funky device and what Behringer added to their 'homage' is pretty nifty.
Man I’ve already got a tr8s but I want one of these and an rd 9 so bad.
thanks for selling me on this. got one coming in a few days.
Awesome brother! Sounds identical to a proper TR from here. Mine is in transit. :-), and I own an actual 808, and all the Roland ACB variants.
This is awesome. Great job!
That jam is soooo hot! Pure fire!
Sick jam!
holy fuck, I fell asleep and woke up to that ending... What an epic jam!!!
Brilliant set! Very inspiring performance, thank you!
Awesome! Nothing else, just awesome!
This guy plays it like the instrument it is, awesome!
I'm going to purchase one just on you demo, great job bro loved it.
This is fantastic - not sure I'd use the onboard filter at the expense of using the individual outs, but it sounds so good anyway.
This is simply amazing! Might be getting one for myself. Great job!
Amazing how many people are getting these.All retailers in the US such as Sweetwater, PCircuit, etc...are saying "early next year".
You sir are a true treasure, bought one immediately after listening to this.
Heftig geil. Ich war immer gegen ne 808, dachte die ist mir zu ... stumpf. Gut, dass ich heute eine günstig gekauft und dein Video gesehen habe. Ich nehme alles zurück. Du groovst richtig.
Really really nice jam!! Nice work!
thanks for set your jam online ,inspires me a lot .. cant wait to get my RD8 end of the week.. :)
Great Demo! Having fun and cutting to the chase! Thank you D!
Amazing jam, great job!!
Good Job I bought one.
best rd 8 demo ever!
I love it! But I always have a RD-6 and I want the RD-9! loool Uli makes us crazy!!!! 😁
thanks 👍 i love this machine! you play it the way it's ment to be. big inspiration
Amazing !
I bought mine after seeing this.
If you can keep your ass still when listening to these grooves you ain't got the music in ya! Infectious. Well done.
Sehr cool👍👍👍
Freue mich schon auf meine RD8
sounds sick mate
Dude this is sick. Seriously making me contemplate picking one up.
Was thinking about the purchasing the Roland version just for midi and sound over usb...but after seeing this video...Wow you can see the man had serious fun jamming....that’s what it’s all about with music....the vibe!! Awesome job bro!
LIke that jam and the sound of the RD8. Mine is coming tomorrow
can't stop bobbing my head
Nice one ! a wicked jam!

You forgot the 0 for 0/10 LOL
It's settled. I'm grabbing one of these. I have a TR-8, but it can't touch this -- especially the kick.
Great job.
Fantastic!
