Drum machines are, by and large, studio gear. Behringer even bills it as such in the description of the item with the line "If you want a classic analog drum machine for your studio."

I get wanting a snappy looking page with everything laid out just so, but I gotta go with the admin on this one--it's a drum machine, drum machines are traditionally studio gear. Makes sense where it is.

Drum Machines, samplers, and synthesizers are musical instruments which are in many studios.

Mixing consoles, recorders, compressors, EQ's, Filters, microphones and Preamps are studio gear.

Hello,

It looks like the RD-8 is classified as a drum machine, not a MIDI controller. https://equipboard.com/items/behringer-rd-8-rhythm-designer/edit

But that seems correct, right?

I don't agree because a drum machine is a musical instrument just like a sampler and a synthesizer and the RD8 like TR-808 it was inspired by is an analog drum synthesizer if you want to get deeper into it, and as you can see on my Equipboard it looks totally out of place with recording gear which is a different medium altogether.

Can you please fix this?

Hello,

I recently discovered that the Behringer RD8 was moved from MIDI Instruments to Recording Gear. This doesn't make any sense and it totally throws off my Equipboard as I had it in the perfect order.

Can someone please, please, please fix this error...
