Read the description next time? Kthxbye 🙏

Hi man! It's just connected to my patch bay, like the rest of my gear. Sometimes I run individual instruments or drum sounds through it. I've recently modded it with individual outputs per channel, so now I can have each channel run back into my audio interface yes. It's too limited to do full mixes on it :)

@@juicythedj750 Ah okay, so you use a few channels at a time and decide everything from the patchbay. Do you usually record the 909 all on separate outputs? Or are you connected to a physical mixer? I'm getting my first steda soon too and I wanted to get ready. What kind of sound card do you use to use, just for her, 10 available inputs at a time?

?

@@juicythedj750 Berringer

No idea! There's a full length recording of his BKS set on TH-cam with timestamps for every known track, but this not yet been identified.

That's when I probably still had my old RCF Ayra Eight's :)

@@juicythedj750 Thank you so much! 😊

Yes, simple as that! The Strymon's input is a little weird though compared to other guitar pedals. It can take a mono or stereo signal in. I've recently sold it though because the for the actual delay effect, both channels are summed to mono. Swapped it for the TC Electronic flashback v2 and I made myself a nice custom preset suited to my needs for use in a dj context

@@juicythedj750 hey, thx for the answer! I also have Lucia and i am looking for an extern fix device but unfortunately i am not very firm with technical issues :) would you recommend the strymon? Or what would you chose? Thx!

@@wm7360 Strymon pedals are loved by keyboard players and guitarists for their super organic and lush sound, but maybe they are a little overkill for Dj use. And again: just recently I learned that the El Capistan (and and the others of their small pedal range probably), don't really process the sound in true stereo. The TC Electronic flashback v2 on the other hand, does. And I like the editor that allows you to create custom presets which can be saved in three user slots. I changed the "level" control to a tone/eq control for example

Yamaha TX81Z! :)

Can't say for sure, but I would say "blonde". Had this in just for a few days for a quick repair.

It's about $1900.00

That's the Yamaha TX-81Z with the Lately Bass preset :)

Hi Nicolas, yes the FX pedal should be connected exactly as you describe. Any FX pedal or module will work as long as you can set the dry/wet mix on the effect to 100% wet. That means that none of the original signal is coming out of the effect unit and going back to the mixer. Only the effect (reverb, delay...) must be sent back to the mixer.

Meanwhile I've finished my own Steda and it's amazing how full and punchy it sounds just from its stereo output. Can't explain really.. analog magic I guess 😎 I still love the TR-8S though! With the recently released software editor and all other emulations like 707 & 606, it's definitely a keeper

That you'll need to ask the original engineers at Roland from the 80ies ;) On a serious note: it's just component size & limitations of that time probably. And since this is a 1-1 clone - both internally and externally, you end up with a similar size. The voiceboard is pretty large.

Sorry for the late response! Here's the official webstore: diystudiotoys.com/catalog/sr-909-drum-machine I got all their info directly through chat & email. There's not a real guide, but it's easy to just follow their bill of materials. Then there's also schematics on how to do the internal wiring. And finally I got a few tips and tricks from the Dinsync RE-909 guide.

Thanks for the kind words dude! With winter around the corner and my own 909 kit waiting to be built soon, there's more tracks to come!

The pads are actually also a signature Roland D-50 patch called "Soundtrack" ;)

@@juicythedj750 Yes it is! Funny, I remember dreaming I was playing an S10 with that same sound pad even before I ever got to play a Roland keyboard! I was a teen in Puerto Rico at that time. It is nice to see so much out there now for synth and drum machine options that we did NOT have back in the 1980s.

We knew about the RD-9 2 years ago. See I love my Model D, TD-3 and MS-101, but corners were cut here and there and especially with the MS, a few key elements of the core functionality were overseen. So for a classic like the TR-909, I wanted to go the extra mile. Next to a few modern additions, it seems like Behringer has left out a few things as well - the external MIDI track for example. Furthermore, from the few demo's we've seen so far, the RD-9 seems to sound very stiff, clinical in comparison to the original which has some extra oomphf and warmth. But it sounds far from bad and definitely more authentic than the Jomox boxes for example. I think it is amazing too that for 1/4th of the 2nd hand prices, you can build essentially the same thing. Each to his own of course! :)

@@juicythedj750 don't get me wrong, i own a TR909, purchased back in 1994, but it's better to keep it in the studio. The RD9 it's a cheap clone and works well for 350 dollars/euro. The TR909 sounds different because it's a vintage analog hardware made in Japan, not the cheap clones made in China, like RD9, Steda and so on.

@@tonybucks5709 nice one :) well, hardware is the important difference between the Steda and Behringer. The Steda boards are exact replicas of the original and can be used to repair an original 909 even. The electronics are exactly the same, including rare original parts. That's why they'll only be able to make a limited number of kits too

@@juicythedj750 Whats the point of all that pedigree *if you can't buy one?* I applaud Steda for their work, but paying $500+ to either build my own, pay more to have someone build it for me, pay even more for a second hand because the Steda people can't be bothered to make any more....naaaahhhh, rather go with the Behringer one and make my adjustments as necessary. I do not understand Steda's strategy of not wanting to sell a unit to someone with money in hand ready to buy.

@@Broyale26 it's not that they don't want to sell as many kits as they can, they just rely on the availability of lots of rare parts because they chose to make a full kit instead of delivering just bare boards and an enclosure. What do you mean by "your adjustments"?

So glad for you! The build process wasn't particularly difficult. It's just a lot of parts. Make sure to get yourself a (cheap) crimping tool for the internal cabling. You'll need to crimp the molex connectors to the cables yourself. The hardest part was finding a flatcable/ribbon cable with a 2,54mm pitch instead of 1,27mm. 2,54mm is also the distance of the pins on the board and I wanted to have flatcables with the same width (like in the original 909), but this is not crucial of course :)

@@juicythedj750 Hey that's really useful to know, thanks!

This was the brushed steel faceplate :)

Is this a real question?

Very nice & just what you'd expect from the ALPS RK27's - the same potentiometers as used in the E&S, Taula 4, Mastersounds...

This wasn't mine :) it came to me for repairs from a guy who also rents his mixers out so it had seen some club use already. Also the steel finish gets a dirty look very quickly

Strymon El Capistan!

This unit still had the IC - based isolator. I believe that one was 4 - pole. It wasn't mine by the way :) After replacing the XLR's, it had to make room for my Taula 4 again ;)

Thanks dude! You definitely should. My JX-8P was supposed to go when I would get my hands on one of the Juno's. I got a 106 this summer, but I'm definitely keeping the JX-8P too, it sounds better in many aspects! And it just has a much more complex synth engine.

Pieter Vochten yes, please keep both! I own a juno6 and i can't wait to pair it with the jx8p! i adore the juno6 but im looking for a softer 80s poly synth as well. any other suggestions?

@@partymarty6969 sorry, missed your reply. I hope you were able to decide in the meanwhile 😉
