The RHYTHM DESIGNER RD-6 provides all the tools you need to become a master beat-maker, including: 8 drum sound and a 16-step sequencer – for a quick and easy-to-use drum machine that’ll shake the house! Whether you’re new to drum programming or a seasoned pro looking to enhance your setup, the RD-6 has everything you need to step up to the big leagues.
Great care has been taken in designing the RD-6 to achieve new possibilities in beat creation by reviving a timeless design from one of the most classic drum machines of yesteryear. By taking a fresh and modern approach on a classic drum machine, the RD-6 gives you the power to harness the phenomenal sound of the venerable TR-606 and tap into some new features as well. Punchy bass drums through sizzling hi-hats and even the authentic and renowned BR-110 clap sound can be manipulated to take your rhythm performance to the next level. This is an analog beat-making monster!
Built to enhance the way you perform, the RD-6 boasts a 16-step drum sequencer which allows for real-time switching between 32 separate patterns. Start building song structures on-the-fly and even edit them to your liking. Mix any of the 8 drum sounds by adjusting their dedicated level knobs. The RD-6 also comes with a distortion based on the venerable DS-1. Add spice and a bit of edge to your tone by flipping the Distortion switch on and adjusting the amount and tone of the distortion. Each pattern you create can also be chained into a whole song up to 256 bars which adds up to eight and a half minutes of beats perfect for those spicy jams where you just can’t stop.

The drum machine does what it is designed to do perfectly. Note that some functions, such as sweep erase for example, will not work until the firmware is updated via the Behringer app, which connects the drum machine to a computer via the USB cable. Connecting and updating itself is seamless at least with windows 10. One problem (somewhat expected, considering that the device is analog) at least for me: The first moment when the drum machine is connected to the computer via the cable, a kind of digital noise is heard, although the drive goes through an active di box first in my case. It responds and receives MIDI information sent by Ableton Live 11 without any problems when the drum machine is used as a sound module, but the noise remains. Otherwise, live it looks better than expected. The buttons and knobs are not of the highest quality, but they work. Another thing you will encounter in the process of working, and which is not well explained, is that when you use the insert function, when programming in "track" mode (which is song mod), it will always insert a "bar" according to your command as the first "bar" only, shifting your entire pattern composition by one "bar" onwards, it's not possible, or at least I haven't found a way to insert "bars" at a location of my choosing, between specified by me "bars". But for live performances it is quite convenient and suitable than the cheaper Korg and Roland drum machines, because it has individual outputs for the individual sounds, which is essential for sound design, by means of an external mixer and effects, which in turn can make this simple drum machine into a monster.

Ár/érték arányban verhetetlen. Egyszerű de nagyszerű dobgép. Ha valaki egy könnyen programozható dobgépet keres tuti választás. Ha sokfajta dobhanggal nagyon bonyolult ritmusokat akarsz programozni akkor nem ez amit keresel - de "normál" felhasználáshoz tökéletes.
