Behringer RD9. DAW Processed - ANALOG Processed. DRY - SATURATED - FX. DOES IT DELIVER IN THE MIX?? 

This is sampled from Roland😂

@@SirBorkBork no it isn't

It seems behringers 'sound' of some of their gear has a top end sheen to it. I have noticed that with their TD3.

I keep telling my self to do more videos - I will ponder 😉

Hi, Daniel thanks for the kind words. much appreciated :) Use any compressor you like. The one I was using wasn't doing much and really, I could have used any compressor for this. The Air Windows Mackie 1604 emulator plugin was probably doing more to the sound than the Compressor. In regards to the RX950 filter plugin. I tend to use it on the RD9 to take a bit of the toppyness off the sound as the RD9 in general has a hifi sheen to it. The biggest difference to the RD9 sound in this video sound is the very last section of the video which utilises the analog mixer to add a good amount of saturation/Distortion to the RD9. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Pa1-KfQVsDE.html I find the RD9 requires more work to fit in the mix than an original 909 probably due to the HIFI sheen and general difference in the sound over an original. Cheers 😎

@@MOOTANT1 Thanks soo much! Just found you on Instagram, will drop you a DM :) Have a nice day!

If you don't want to use Clock, and want to trigger MIDI notes on your RD-9 over USB from you DAW instead. Set SYNC to INT, to select what USB MIDI Channel you want to use: press SETTINGS, then press the 2/USB button, using the DATA dial you can then select from MIDI Channels 1 - 16.

Thanks Jovan:). I cant recall where I got the vocal. I think I sampled it from a RU-vid video. The track at the end of the video will be released.

Dig your Sound!

I got lucky as I stumbled on to a store which had one X demo unit left. I think it was gear 4 music

Same here !! I understood I was within the first 5 orders they'd received for the RD-9 (literally the moment they went on sale) but now been told Oct22nd. Getting a bit bored now tbh and not sure I'm all that bothered about getting one now ;-)

@@iixorb 4 years ago they announced the RD9 so its been a considerable wait. But hang in there, not long to go now.

Hi Luke, I have 24 inputs on my soundcard for directly connecting hardware outputs. Then just a case of adding tracks in the DAW and setting the inputs.

You need to use individual outs connected to an interface with multiple inputs. Midi doesn't transmit audio. You will be unlikely to use the midi out. Just connect the USB for midi.

Yes you do need to keep the master fader lower when boosting individual channel gains to avoid overloading the stereo buss. But in saying that overloading the stereo master buss can be a desireable effect to depending on the mixer. Some do it well, others not so good. What you hear from your mixer is what you want to capture (if you like what you hear). 😉

@@MOOTANT1 that makes sense. I don’t like mixing with the channels right down because they are stupid logarithmic and just isn’t enough precision right down the bottom. I assume my master low and keep it peaking (too much) and that’s me ready to record for mastering.

Turn your gain down on your mixer drum channel strip. Then you can bring your volume up.

@@ultrajayme The point of this exercise is to turn the gains UP

Hey Andrew, I don't have such a video but you wouldn't side chain the RD9 to Ableton. You would side chain a bass line or pads, (or whatever) using a compressor or volume plugin triggered by the RD9's kick drum. For a really easy side chain solution maybe check out Xfer Lfo Tool plugin. It doesn't require a trigger and is very easy to use. Alternatively, just use Ableton Compressor and assign any kick drum source to trigger the side chain.

@@MOOTANT1 no worries, gotcha , thats why my t8 has the side chain option as it has a built in 303, will have a looksky at that vid. Thanks for the reply .

I am using seperate outs from the RD9.

@@MOOTANT1 right, thanks for the answer. I didn't see any jacks coming out the individual outs, that's why I was wondering.

You work however you find yourself most comfortable

What are too trying to accomplish by sending midi from your drum machine to your synth? What synth?

I use a PreSonus Quantum and a Ferrifish Pulse 16.

Thank you Chris. Is it usual, to route hardware signals first in the soundcard to get it in computer (like you did) and then from there to analog mixer, and from there back to computer ?

@@MRcyclon1 It can be done any way you like. I have all the hardware outs connected to the soundcards inputs. Those sources are brought into individual DAW channels which I can record, process and mix. However, I can send those channels out to the analog mixer from the soundcard outs and still add processing plugins to those channels. That is what I did in this video at the end to get the mixer saturation on the RD9. It is very flexible.

@@MOOTANT1 Thank you Chris, I understand you. I was just thinking it would be better to route hardware individual first to mixer an then from there to computer. BR Jani

Its a yamaha

Triggered by Ableton midi (not midi clock, just actual notes in an Ableton Clip I used to use an expert sleepers box to give me sample accurate mdi. I don't use it now. Midi from a Mac/PC is excellent these days.

It worked brilliantly to cover a fully analogue setup writing and mixing or a hybrid system or all in the box. My setup isn't like that now - not because I didn't like it, but more of a space issue. I will set up a system like that again because it was by far the most versatile..

Yes just standard USB midi. No probs at all

@@MOOTANT1 do you have to use the External Instrument device on a midi track or is there another way?

@@alandunphy6746 You can use Ext instrument but in this Im just sending midi to the RD9 and its drum outputs going in to my sound card and monitored live via Ableton channels.
