Jomox Alpha Base • Modor DR-2 • Behringer RD-9 - Drum Machine Comparison 

love my Jomox eurorack bass drum module!

FX ist bei der AB vom OS-Design Instrument 12. Wäre cool, wenn es eine zwölfte Taste dafür geben würde.

same here and the best sounding drum machines are my DFAM, modular drums, and RYTM. The Roland boutiques need a lot of effects processing to sound good and hate the Roland user interface so poor on the recreation of TB303 and TR08

Only a Vintage Vermona Drum Machine available here! 😃

@@winesynths a shame, I think the DRM is a classic, there’s not really anything like it.

Yeah! I also had the Erica in mind when I planned this video. But finally I found it too far away from the classic drum machine concept. 😁🍀

@@winesynths I think the modor and lxr and closer related tbh. All and all I would still buy a modor and a rd-9 lol. Nice video. 😊

I'm on the same situation.Have the AB but love the Modor also.Its a bit difficult to resist.

true the Erica stuff is geared toward more modern hard hitting EDM and industrial sounds@@winesynths

I did not exactly build it, but I was kind of involved in the whole process 😁: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Jpfz4tcMP2o.html

We had some logistic delays going on! Corona, Holidays etc… But everything will be fine soon! 🌻

@@winesynths No problem :)

Ich weiss auch gar nicht, ob die überhaupt noch Kunden annehmen. Und wenn, kann es echt lange dauern.

909! The magic numbers! 😁 All about the black box: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dteatXTbgnA.htmlsi=-jcyFkkcq2yjjG_H

the sanples sound insane through the vca also

I already reached out to Erica for the Perkons. But this is a video project for early next year. I am also waiting for the Drumlogue! 🍀

@@winesynths Nice. I'm looking forward to seeing the Drumlogue and Perkons HD-01on your channel.

Of course! I love Abletons Drum Rack a lot, especially in combination with the Push2 it's just like a Drum Computer! And, of course, I always feed it with my own samples! But at the end, the real drum machines often have this special groove that is hard to reproduce in the DAW.

@@winesynths Yeah, hardware will be better for the workflow IMO, though changing the pitch or speed of the samples can't be done with analog gear like the RD-9 except for the digital sounds of course. I'm gonna sample my RD-6 so that I can play reverse cymbals on my Volca Sample.

Erica is not really cooperative and Elektron is just not my cup of tea. 😁

understand!@@winesynths

Roland editor calls home every time you open and doesn't keep track of the playing sequence, it makes me sad.

Totally! RD-9 rocks! A friend just lend me his TR-707 the other day. It's nice, but now I really don't miss my old 707/727 duo anymore. It's still fun to play and sounds nice. But for everyday studio production, the RD's is simply the better tool now. Also, over the 909. Just for all the MIDI to analog sync possibilities! And the RD-9 also sounds very authentic. After all, a dry 909 or 808 is not as spectacular as people might think. It always needs processing and single out mixing to sound really great. If you know how to do it, the Behringer IMHO totally does the job! And I am really not a vintage Taliban. I also like to simply play drum machine samples in my Ableton Drum Rack on the Push2. To me, the best and most versatile drum machine that exists.

Thank you Hans! Your comment is highly appreciated as you are defintely a „Drum Machine Heavy User“! 😁👍

@@winesynths 100% guilty of this, yes 😀

I must be the only person who completely doesn’t like the 909, for the most part, but much more fell in love with the 808 feeling and sounds, owned 2 yocto clones and used the hell out of them. That being said, I sold them and bought an AB, it’s a pretty amazing device.

@@NickHchaos Happy you! 🙂 Fulfilling _my_ dreams was a tad more expensive, but well... I could not resist and am also happy now. The AB is great I think.

@@wackerburg for the most part, I think drum machines are pretty boring and cliched, especially compared to the possibilities in modular synths (and actually, I think the same thing about most integrated/non modular synths), but I am also someone who came into synths after 15 years of playing classical guitar and the only thing I spent money on in that time was new strings once a month. So it depends on your perspective.

lol, no. alpha base sounds huge, and punches for days

@@christopherpederson1021 no? 🤦🏼

This is the reason I became a musician and not a painter! 😂

Die Kritik bin ich gewohnt! Kommt ausschliesslich von deutschsprachigen Menschen! 😁 Aber bis jetzt hat sich tatsächlich noch niemand beschwert, dass er nichts verstanden hat! 😁🍀🌻

@@winesynths Ze Germans love to mecker.
