"Finally! Here is the video that shows which drum machine is which. The video here has a clean audio feed directly from the mixer, with no microphone connected, so there is no room noise. Yesterday some of you guessed wrong about which was the 909
My RD9 has the higher pitched hi hats, compared to this particular 909, which you can clearly hear in this video and the video I posted yesterday. The only other real differences in THIS comparison with THIS 909, is a slight difference in the snare, and more importantly, the kick drum on the 909 has a slightly longer decay than the RD9, when it’s in authentic mode. The RD9 kick seems tighter, even with the decay knob all the way to the right. BUT, when you switch the RD9 into “enhanced mode” it’s super easy to tune the hats to match any 909. Also, the extra parameters on the kick, allows you to go much deeper and extend the decay, due to the pitch envelope knob and pitch knob. It’s a little finicky, but when you dial it in, it goes low! I wish the enchanced mode, had a parameter that allowed you to tune the hats, while have the extra kick parameters disabled, and vice versa. Cons for me are the buttons on the RD9. I prefer those classic old school IBM computer style buttons the 909 has. Also it sucks that you can’t tap the instrument buttons in record mode to lay down a beat. So, make up your own mind. I’m not here to push any gear. Just giving you my observations. I’ll leave it up to you guys to debate, on a molecular level, about sonic differences, and whether it’s good or bad. I bought it for the 909 style workflow, and obviously the classic hybrid analog and digital sounds. They nailed it. And we didn’t even speak about the other great features, like the polymetric feature, filter, and transient designer, which allows to to create some insane compression type effects on the drums. But, that’s for another video. This video was all about the sound. Thoughts? "
