Behringer RHYTHM DESIGNER RD-6-SR

Introducing the Behringer RHYTHM DESIGNER RD-6-SR, a modern reinterpretation of the iconic Roland TR-606 drum machine, first released in 1982-1984. This innovative drum computer seamlessly combines classic analog sounds with contemporary features, making it a must-have tool for electronic music producers and enthusiasts alike. Whether you're crafting thumping electro tracks or simply looking to complement your existing setup, the RD-6-SR delivers a powerful performance that is sure to inspire creativity.

The Behringer RD-6-SR boasts a puristic and authentic analog sound that captures the essence of the original TR-606 while adding a fresh twist. With eight programmable instruments and an Accent feature, you can mold your rhythms to perfection. The Bass Drum and Snare each have their own dedicated volume controls, while Toms, Hi-Hats, and Cymbal/Clap can be adjusted in pairs for added flexibility.

One of the standout features of the RD-6-SR is its iconic sequencer, which offers access to 32 patterns, each capable of holding up to 16 steps. This allows for intricate beat creation and manipulation, and with the included Song Mode, you can seamlessly arrange your patterns into complete tracks. The addition of four unique scales caters to different rhythmic styles, ensuring that your creativity knows no bounds.

For an extra dose of inspiration, the Randomize function enables you to generate new patterns at the push of a button, eliminating the need for tedious battery swaps to achieve that same spontaneity found in the original TR-606. This feature alone opens up a world of possibilities, making it easier than ever to explore fresh grooves and variations.

To enhance the sonic capabilities of the RD-6-SR, Behringer has included an extensive distortion effect, perfect for those who appreciate a bit of grit in their sound. This powerful effect elevates the overall audio quality, making it a viable alternative to external distortion units.

Connectivity is paramount for any modern music production setup, and the RD-6-SR excels in this area. In addition to the original features from the 80s, it includes six individual outputs for each instrument, two analog trigger outputs, Sync In/Out, and a footswitch connector for starting and stopping the drum machine on the fly. This versatility ensures that the RD-6-SR can effectively integrate into any studio or live performance scenario.
