Introducing the Behringer RD-78

[@FireJojoBoy]

Someone recently said "Behringer somehow make saving money easier and harder at the same time" and this pretty much sums up how cool this thing is once again

[@AlbertMonkey]

Haha so true! I’ve got a list of stuff I keep adding to when I’ve saved

[@robbieferrero]

It's plugins.

[@kevinsturges6957]

My favorite drum machine. You did great on this Behringer!

[@gonreebgonreeb]

,Why do I again prefer the original ?kzbin.info/www/bejne/laimfYyIi9KHb7M

[@TheDavidPoole]

I've been waiting all my life for this. Oh lord!

[@lordspam2721]

Same man. My favorite DM of all time.

[@mondamnil]

That´s the problem. Now it´s too late for a simple Drumbox without any option to edit the dated sounds in it.

[@TheDavidPoole]

@@mondamnil I understand what you are saying, but for me, the draw for this machine are those particular sounds. I grew up listening to and wanting this, the CR 2000, TR 808 etc. I had a TR606, TR626, MC202 etc in the 80s. Those were the sounds, along with the Korg KPR77 (I think - the one that DM used), Linn Drum, Alesis etc, that were increasingly tweakable, but still pretty much down to using EQ and FX to sculpt the sound. I want those particular sounds to sculpt. Sparingly, unless I'm trying to make a soundscape. Sometimes it's better to have something where I know that I don't have to do too much work or waste much time to get what I want. We all have sample libraries with thousands of drum samples. I'm dome with spending hours trawling through samples and have whittled down to 20 or so "kits" that I mix and match between, but now find that I'm more likely to go back to using the hardware. It's all subjective - to me it's like going back in a time machine to my teens onward. I feel more of a connection with the hardware. Sounds stupid, but it's the thought of the electricity crackling through the circuitry. And the feel of it too if the earth is dodgy 😀 Cheers 🤘

[@russ254]

@@TheDavidPoole great read, thanks!

[@TheDavidPoole]

@lordspam2721 one of mine too. It's all over one of my favourite albums of all time, "Metamatic" by John Foxx. Coincidentally, I acquired a Yamaha drum machine previously owned by him from the brother of Ultravox! guitarist Robin Simon. Can't remember the exact model number as I'm not that familiar with Yamaha drum machines but it's something like an RX 9 or similar. I got it years ago but haven't really used it as i need to service it. But it's more of a collection piece for me so I'm not fussed about using it. It's where it came from that's important to me. Cheers 🤘

The sound of John Foxx Metamatic. Been waiting for this one

[@cnfuzz]

He used different ones on that album like on Tidal wave , acetone , hohner

[@TheDavidPoole]

@@johnk6312 one of my favourite albums of all time. Cheers 👍

[@chriszanf]

The sound of a CR78 always reminds me of Gary Numan 'Bombers (live)'

[@TheDavidPoole]

@chriszanf yes. Nothing like the original - pure punk rock. I like them both in their own way. The raw energy and naiveté of the original against the laid back, darker path that the live version follows. The CR78 plays a big role in that version. He used it quite a bit on the album "Dance" too along with live drummers, as usual.

[@TheDavidPoole]

@@johnk6312 it was also used by Ultravox! when he was singer\songwriter. One of my favourites is "Hiroshima Mon Amour". I think the live version (Marquee, London?) is my favourite. I'm sure the studio version is on the album "Ha! Ha! Ha!" but I could well be mistaken 😁 Either way, it's a very good use of the CR78. Cheers 🤘🏼

[@kevrenshaw6177]

Of all the drum mahines, this one id buy. Such a great retro kick and sound.

[@mofateam1]

just my thoughts here ...

[@Drinkyoghurt]

Not my type of synth, but I appreciate that Behringer is making unobtanium finally obtainable for normal people.

Excellent reproduction! This one is the most aesthetically pleasing of all of your drum machine recreations so far. I love them all for their sound and features, but man this one just looks truly great in every way

[@pablowentscobar]

RIP vintage synth market. The bubble is definitely going to burst.

[@ReaperCheGuevara]

The vintage market won't die. This makes it affordable for those who can't. Man I love vintage stuff but I prefer not to trash on the mid to high quality knockoffs.

[@TheDavidPoole]

@@ReaperCheGuevara I agree. I have synths from back in the day. As they die i think of them as old, retired friends and can't think of letting them go now. I had others that I sorely miss, but am being given the chance to replace them with reimagined versions. Cheers 🤘🏼

[@neofitosmihail4272]

the vintage market exist because people need it and because they are affordable - its soo easy to understand that but if you have complex you will not see it

[@GizzyDillespee]

Collector gonna collect. For use as a drum machine in the 21st century, the modern RD seems to be the way to go.

[@Eggsisreallychicken]

I’ve got a midied cr-78 and this looks and sounds sick. Would have just bought this

With this and the LM drum I predict there’s going to be resurgence of 80s style synth pop evoking lots of happy nostalgia instead of the overly serious stuff at the moment. I hope so 👍🏾
