The Behringer RD-8 is a fully analog drum machine based on the classic Roland TR-808. It allows you to create diverse rhythms and drum beats and features 16 classic drum sounds including: kick, snare, toms, congas, claps, clave, rimshot, maracas, cowbell, cymbal, open and closed hihats.
The Behringer RD 8 has a 64-step sequencer, a versatile Wave Designer and dual-mode 12-db LPF/HPF Filter with resonance, which enables you to further shape your sounds. It also has a modern workflow to provide enhanced playability which helps you create versatile live performances.
The Behringer RD8's drum sequencer supports poly-meter, step-repeat, note-repeat, real-time triggering, track-mute and track-solo functions, allowing you to craft varied and creative drum rhythms as you go. In addition, the Pattern Mode supports arrangement of patterns into full songs and setting number of repeats per song part, while Song Mode allows chaining of songs together for live sets and expanded compositions.
The Behringer RD 8 has control for tempo, swing, probability, flams, per-step filter editing, randomization per instrument, step length, accents, attack and sustain transients, auto fills, and much more. In addition, there is live recording, editing and playback of Analog Filter cutoff via automation which allows you to create new tones as part of your beats.
The Behringer RD-8 rhythm designer also features comprehensive MIDI In/Out/Thru and USB implementation for synchronization and connection to external devices, as well as independent analog outputs per instrument for external sound processing or recording of your rhythms as multi-track audio.
The RD-8 has 29 knobs, 5 switches and 59 buttons. Input and output connections include: Phones; Mono audio; MIDI In, Out and Thru over USB and 5 pin MIDI ports; 11 independent analog outputs; 3 trigger outs. The Behringer RD 8 supports storage of up to 16 songs and 256 patterns, all of which can be imported/exported for unlimited songs and patterns.
This is my first analog drum machine and I have been having a ton of fun with it. The kick drum sound fat, the hi hats sizzle, and the snare and claps crack. Overall I am very impressed with the Behringer RD8 as it is a very accessible, versatile and immediate drum machine to start making beats with. Looking forward to exploring it further and sharing more jams in the future.

had it for a bunch of weeks. sended it back.. maybe i'm spoiled having a real 808. i had a problem with the harsh and sharp transients of the rd8 in general. also the snap in the snare became only good once i used the transient designer. having that flexibility is great though. the new features on this one are so good. i tried putting the machine in some tracks but struggled to fit it in the mix properly working with my other sounds. something i found much easier on my original 808. soundwise it has got some more mid presence compared to the rd, making it sound slightly warmer. good you're not comparing and focussing on the strengths! now i might get one again at some point for on the road activity..
@synth4ever
@synth4ever 3 года назад
You are quite lucky to own an original 808! :) Did you ever do a video comparing the two directly sound-wise? In any case I do not own an original to compare, so this is my first experience with the sounds, but to my ear it sounds great for the price and capabilities. I also found it fairly easy to work with once I understood the basics. The transient designer and filter automation really allow for more varied sounds and additional creative applications. Anyway, now that they've updated OS to v2.6 it's even more capable. I haven't updated yet but at some point I probably will. Thanks for sharing your insights!

@@synth4ever Yes functionality really is awesome and even I use many vintage synths, in core im DAW producer and drum machine controlled over USB/midi is much more usefull for me. But on other side.. CR-5000 is the one machine used by Vangelis over his records and soundtracks (Blade Runner and so on) and sounds awesome with real vintage vibe.
@MrFlatlandcycle
@MrFlatlandcycle Год назад
In the wave designer section, does turning the attack clockwise cause the attack curve to be sharper/earlier amplitude? This seems to be the opposite knob direction compared to many other synths.

Hi, thanks for your video tutorial! Very helpful . I have a question: when recording automation ( filters) is there a way to undo? Thanks!
@synth4ever
@synth4ever 3 года назад
Thanks. I don't think there's an undo function for filter automation but its really not a big deal as you can enable/disable the automation, or simply re-record over it if you don't like the existing automation. It's one of the coolest features of the RD-8 in my opinion and opens up a lot of possibilities!

The rimshot and clave sounds good on your RD-8 and the volumes of them are even when switching between the two. Your clave sounds like an 808 clave is supposed to sound. Same goes for the rimshot too. The other RD-8s I've heard had clave that sounded not quite right and the rimshot was way too loud. I wonder if that was a flaw on the earlier units that was later resolved in later models. Yours sound perfect. I hope all recent batches of RD-8s sound similar to this. I'm looking forward to owning one of these. BTW, I have two original TR808s.,
@synth4ever
@synth4ever 3 года назад
I actually acquired 2 units so that I could have different patterns, stereo and sequence other gear. This unit has a more recent manufacturing date than the 2nd unit. The 2nd unit has the louder rimshot issue. I haven't bothered to send it in to get fixed, but may in the future. Otherwise just need to adjust the volume...

Very good question, I'm not sure. I don't think I've seen any mention of unquantized recording, but perhaps it's been added in a more recent firmware update? The Behringer RD8 Facebook group may know, or Music Tribe.

I hate this thing. It used to be a very user friendly machine when Roland created it. But Behringer added so many bells and whistles, with so many obscure, unmarked, button combinations, that I really don't like the way it's behaving anymore. Plus the handclap reverb bug annoys me a lot. I know the original was like that, but that's no reason to clone even the audio bugs...
@synth4ever
@synth4ever 3 года назад
That's unfortunate. I never used the original so can't compare workflow, but I found it pretty easy to understand once I grasped the concepts of how it worked. I reviewed this with OS v1.3.5 and it's up to OS v2.6 (haven't upgraded yet), perhaps there's lots of new unmarked button combos added since I reviewed it.
