Behringer RD-6 Drum Machine Silver
The Behringer RD-6 Drum Machine is designed to give you that classic analog drum sound. It features eight drum sounds, including an extra clap sound from a classic drum machine. The onboard 64-step sequencer allows you to program groovy drum patterns, bringing 606-style sequencing into the modern era. Along with the iconic clap sound, the RD-6 provides a range of connections, such as MIDI USB for connecting to your computer, 3.5mm jack outputs for each voice, and extra patch points for easy interfacing with your other gear.

Behringer has brought the classics back to life with the RD-6, basing its design on a classic drum machine. The 606-style design captures the essence of the original but adds new connectivity and enhancements for the modern era. This compact drum machine is perfect for creating loops and sequences on the fly. It offers eight distinct and powerful drum sounds, complete with accent and mix parameter controls to change the tones of your sounds in real-time. It even includes the sought-after clap sound from another classic drum machine that has been used extensively in dance and hip-hop music. The RD-6 reproduces crisp and powerful sounds, capturing the nuances that made the original drum machine iconic.

The RD-6 features an onboard 64-step sequencer that allows you to create loops and percussive ideas on the fly. You can mix between the eight drum sounds, creating song ideas and grooves for music production. Whether in the studio or on stage, the in-depth controls enable you to change and manipulate sounds with ease, making it perfect for creating ever-evolving loops. The step sequencer also allows you to switch between 32 patterns in real-time, so you can build up your sequences for live performances. By chaining patterns together, you can create songs up to eight and a half minutes long, allowing you to progress through different grooves. With 26 buttons and 11 knobs, the ergonomic layout provides versatile control over your sounds and levels.

The RD-6 features true analog circuitry, meticulously recreated to capture the crisp and powerful sound of the original drum machine. It retains the 16 step buttons with LED indicators from the original design. The recreation of the circuitry includes matched transistors to replicate the tonality and power of the iconic drum machine. The RD-6 also includes an onboard distortion circuitry modeled after the RAT synthesizer’s onboard effect. This distortion allows you to push your drum sounds to the limit, adding spice and edge to your sound.

With its compact design, the RD-6 is highly portable and ideal for music creators on the go. It features both MIDI and USB connectivity, allowing you to easily use it with your favorite music production software. The RD-6 also offers a wide variety of connectivity options, including outputs for each of the eight drum sounds. Additionally, it is available in different colors to suit your style.
