Thank you very much.

Cheers!

That kick sure does thump harder than in some of the videos I've seen people do. Definitely a must have for musicians who love analogue equipment.

You can't go wrong for the money. I'd like one in each colour!

Good stuff. I've not used the TD-3 in a while. I may try pairing it with the Torso T-1 sequencer.

Cheers Barry.

Cheers Luis. Nice bit of kit you have there.

I boxed mine up thinking I would sell it but I never got around to it. I think I'll unbox it. It will be like having a new drum machine 😄I really like the RD-6, just that I'm short of space.

Hi Larry - The conventional wisdom is to have the drum machine as the master but with the TD-3 and RD-6 it doesn't really matter which is which. If you're using sync rather than MIDI then you have no option but to have the RD-6 as the master because the TD-3 only has sync in. I quite like the B-1. Sounds good.

@@electro-somaThank you for your reply! I will use sync, don't want to mess with midi, lol. And it really helps me to start getting a feel for making this music, seeing you use the same TD-3 pattern all the way through, just tweaking knobs as the feeling moves you. You actually use the RD-6 for sonic embellishments, using those percussion sounds to change moods and stuff. Now I can see how important that RD-6 is to making a cohesive track, thanks!!!

@@larry1754 Glad it helped Larry. MIDI can seem a bit daunting at first. If you get more gear learning the basics of how MIDI works is a must really!

Cheers.

Cheers Tim.

Cheers. Yes the TB-303/TD-3 is a pain to program but actually very quick when you get the hang of it. I just hammer buttons in the hope something good comes out. Plenty of well known artists from the 80s used this tried and tested technique so I don't feel too bad about it!

Cheers. Seems ages ago since I last used the TD-3 and RD-6. I'll have to hook them up again.

The RD-6 is very affordable so why not 😄

Cheers. Yes it's excellent if you're wanting an experience close to a TB303 in terms of sequencing and sound. Like the original, the sequencer isn't for everyone and can take some getting used to. I performed the 'rubber mod' on mine recently which involved a little soldering. The TD-3 is very moddable if that's your thing.

Cheers.

Thanks.

Hi Franky - Cheers. Not too long really. I only started playing around with synths at the age of 48. I know very little music theory. I try and learn but it rarely sinks in! I think it's a good combo to start with. Enjoy your TD-3 and RD-6. I actually sold my RD-6 as it just wasn't getting enough use. I really liked it though. It's very hands on. I still use the TD-3.

@@electro-soma thanks for the reply and info :) Cant wait to try them out!

Thanks. Yes I think that issue was fixed in a firmware update.

What slide problem ?

Cheers.

Hi - Yes some reverb and delay here in Ableton.

I was interested in one. Sounds nice. Do you like the Crave?

@@electro-soma I like Crave so much I have 2, not that you can pick them out in any of my tracks, ha ha... I had to move 6 months ago, and am not as yet set back up. Please listen to some of my tracks. TY

@@marsmediapro Will do 👍

Thanks. I think I recognise your cat from the Gearspace forum! Is your RD-6 drum programming book available yet?

@@electro-soma it is! book is in review stage over at amazon.. should be available in a few days.. i will be getting a printed version to show everyone in a video

@@cresshead Great stuff. I think I'd find it useful.

@@electro-soma same here, no more bits of scrappy paper!

Hi - I have no music theory. I really just play around and for the most part it doesn't sound particularly good! I enjoy it which is the main thing. Have you tried a groovebox like the Novation Circuit? An excellent bit of kit for someone new to hardware.

This setup is good to go. Just hook the gear on some delay and its going to sound nice. I myself like something like drums+mono+chords/pads. The Volca Beats, Bass and FM are an very nice point to start

@@electro-soma hey bro thanks for your advice to be honest i just bought td3 and got a midi microlab controler from arturia and being playing with fl studio.. but sounds like a good start what youve mentioned about groovebox..ima look more about it. lets get in touch maybe we can continue chating about it. thanks.

@@brunocpimenta awsome , yeah ive been watching lot of utube videos comparing so i can start looking for my first steps into this. thanks for sharing ur thoughts.

Hi - I use the RD-6 for drums. Have I misunderstood your question?

@@electro-soma yah, i guess a better question for you would be that if you could only get one other piece of hardware to go with the td-3, would it be the rd-6 or maybe a sampler? i also have an ipad so im not sure if a sampler is maybe necessary and maybe a drum machine like the rd-6 would be better? thanks a subbed!

@@squintygreeneyes Thanks. The RD-6 is great for that TR-606 vibe but perhaps a bit limited for some people. I think it's really good though and one of the cheapest drum machines available. I don't have a sampler and have never used one but I backed Sonicware's Smpltrek and it should be here next month.

Canadian Acid house.

And good

very cheap indeed, I cant stop buying them! The price of these machines doesnt match how good they sound.

behringer was shitty and shady af in the past but now they actually changed and actually make good products all of their synths are too good to avoid buying such a low price for such a good sound
