Wonderful machine
Tomoc 04.04.2022
This really is a wonderful machine. Great functionality and gets those classic 909 sounds i to your hands.

The workflow seemed daunting at first, particularly all of the settings menu items but it really is very easy to use. Don't forget to enable autosave to avoid disappointment. Solid build quality and great style.

In the end I discovered I prefer the 808 sound, but believe me this machine is fantastic.

A GREAT DrumMachine but... it's not a TR-909!
CovilStudio 10.06.2024
The Behringer RD-9 is a fantastic drum machine that delivers on both performance and value. As a musician I was looking for a drum machine that could emulate classic drum sounds while also offering modern features.

First off, the build quality is impressive. It feels sturdy and durable, perfect for both studio use and live performances. The layout is intuitive, making it easy to navigate and tweak sounds on the fly. Plus, the inclusion of MIDI connectivity adds versatility to my setup.

Sound-wise, the RD-9 nails it. The analog circuitry delivers warm and punchy sounds reminiscent of classic drum machines, yet it also offers the flexibility to sculpt and shape your own unique sounds. The range of presets is impressive, covering everything from crisp hi-hats to booming kick drums.

One of the standout features for me is the sequencer. It's incredibly powerful yet straightforward to use, allowing me to create complex rhythms with ease. I appreciate the ability to chain patterns together and create full-length tracks without any hassle.

Overall, the Behringer RD-9 is a must-have for any musician or producer looking to add authentic drum sounds to their setup. With its combination of quality construction, versatile sound engine, and intuitive interface, it's become an essential part of my studio rig. Highly recommended! But it lacks the imperfections and feeling of the old Roland TR-909... RD-9 it's 'too' good and complete to be the acclaimed 909!

Excellent sound!
Thomas Ikon 12.03.2022
I never had a real 909 and was always working with samples. Thanks to Behringer I finally got my hands on the hardware version which seems to me very faithful to the original. The material is a very hard plastic and everything seems sturdy and well made. Congratulations to Behringer, we’re living in the “analog Renaissance”!

Just ok... Better use samples
Rellulita 26.09.2023
Nice for those who are obsessed with 909 drum machine. Personally I think this machine to big and the sequencer is not even close to those in the market today. I understand it is a clone of a classic but a little originality will upgrade any classic insturment.

I got my sample pack in a Digitakt and its much better now.

Overall nice remake, feels a little cheap though
Cathidge 29.10.2022
Being a big fan of the 909 sound, I was excited about the Behringer clone. Unfortunately, even though the sound is there, the unit's overall "cheap feeling" makes it a lot less fun to use than I had hoped for. The knobs are pretty stiff and the buttons also feel like they might need some oil. As always, great service from Thomann though!

Boom boom boom, bang for the buck
Dr. Builder 05.07.2024
A classic sound, loud, techno, boom boom. I like it, easy to program, easy to use, expressive enough. OK, if you want variation you need to turn knobs, but the (meanwhile > €2000) original also has that as a strength. With this machine you get an original, with more control, and some FX, and full midi controllable triggers. Behringer did a good job on this one.

One minor remark on the "keyboard style" programming knobs. They are rubber pad contact ones, and on my particular machine, the last four knobs have a slightly different feel. For the rest, I'm fully happy with the machine.
