Using the Behringer RD - 6 - RD is a breeze. First, power it on and start by selecting your drum sounds. You can adjust the mix parameters and add a global accent to give your beats more character. The 16 - step drum sequencer is very user - friendly. Just press the step buttons with LED indicators to create your patterns. You can switch between 32 separate patterns in real - time. To make a full song, chain your patterns together, and you can have up to 250 bars. For those who want to add some extra flavor, use the distortion circuitry. It's modeled after the RAT* and can really make your sounds stand out.
When connecting external devices, use the MIDI and USB ports. You can choose different sync options like USB, MIDI, Clock, or Internal according to your needs.
As for maintenance, keep it in a clean and dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. If it gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it. Also, when you're done using it, turn it off properly to save energy and extend its lifespan.
