Review: Classic sounds recreated - My original TR-606 died in the 90's and Behringer's clone is virtually identical sounding and looking and in operation. It also addionally has a clap sound, MIDI, individual outputs for all of the sounds and a distortion circuit that the original lacked. Very easy to operate....only in song mode are you likely to need to refer to the manual. 16 step patterns and 32 pattern memories are the same as the original but stingy by today's standards. Another opportunity missed was to make the accenting global like the original rather than the more modern per step...and it would have been great to have had instrument tuning and decay...maybe in a future firmware update Behringer...or is it done already and I've missed it? Great sounds, great value, so easy to use....I have two!!!
Review: freaking awesome - This could be a bog standard, basic 80s drum machine. Then you turn the Distortion knob and it goes epic. Great little box - works well with a Crave.

This could be a bog standard, basic 80s drum machine. Then you turn the Distortion knob and it goes epic. Great little box - works well with a Crave.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some people hate Behringer kit
*by W***G on 13 March 2022*

I don't, I understand what Behringer are doing, making music more attainable. Once you get your head around how to program this and maybe the TD-3 you can spend all day twiddling your knobs. I have and I've eaten a sandwich at the same time. Ultimately if you want to spend hundreds for the same kind of machine, carry on, I'll be smiling because my kit was cheaper.
