I can’t say if I had one and some schmuck was gonna pay north of 700 for it, I wouldn’t sell it. There will be another one soon enough.

They’re a bit behind the curve aren’t they? I got mine in July? And I’m not a YouTuber/influencer etc.

Was in a music store for something else today and came across a bunch of stock ready to go, gave the Demo unit a thrashing. liked. The kick and hi hats were great.
Mine has arrived (from Andertons UK).
First impressions;
- It’s nice and heavy at 3kg
- Sounds pretty good (only on headphones so far)
- It’s going to fit a 909 shaped hole in my setup far better than previous attempts (Tanzmaus and TR09)

Sounds great mate got mine yesterday, just hooked it up to the TD-3 and I’m set to have a play now. Can’t fault the quality of the RD-9 here, fits right in.
PS
Was using the headphones last night and didn’t realise you can’t hear the wave designer or filter unless you plug the mono cable into an audio interface.

they look both pretty nice. The TD3 in back looks good. Can’t understand why somebody would buy yellow, green etc

I have had all the colours I prefer the black but I also have a Blue TD-3 (unopened) and a Blue MS-1 however I was going to chain both TD-3’s and test them with the RD-9 later.
I agree Black TD-3 looks great. I might use the Korg NTS-1 as an FX for it.
Just hooked up the Mopho Desktop and TD-3 to the RD-9.
It’s a pretty cool combination but no more room for synths as I’m demoted to the kitchen table lol

You guys that have one how do you like the dual filter?

It sounds really good IMO but you can only use it whilst using the mono out. I plan on using the multiple outs of mine tho so I can process each channel in the mixer with external filters etc but yeah it really does sound good. Wave designer is cool too it adds bite to any sound you assign. The clap sounds great through Wave designer nice n compressed.

Its really good. The mono out FX can shape the kick in ways that really take the classic 909 sound and enhance it. Also the enhanced mode lets me pitch it down and make deep kicks that I couldn’t have done the same way with the OG.
So personally I think this is an amazing analogue machine for the price. As a bonus it can also clock my DFAM with analogue sync outs, plus it has trigger outs that you can send to synths which of course is how some classic house tunes were made “Can you feel it”…etc.
