Provenance

The same counts the audit prints.

187 of 187 values provisional. 50 of 99 ranges cited to the RHYTHM DESIGNER RD-8 User Manual, 49 unverified.

A point is the setting to dial, and it counts as cited only where a document prints that value. A range is the control’s own limits, and mood may move a value only inside a cited range, so 0 parameters here declare an axis that cannot move.

content

the Specifications Voices block gives all sixteen sounds as Analog, and the storage blocks list what the box stores as 16 songs of 16 patterns of 64 steps — sequencer data and no audio. There is no card slot, no import path and no sample memory in 30 pages

p.5 has the box leading — "the RD-8 lets you control external synths and hardware sequencers to create songs without a DAW in sight" — and gives send and receive in one symmetric sentence, then says in the same column that it "can be controlled by a DAW if required". The only worked hook-up, §15 on p.24, draws USB in both directions and labels neither end. Nothing in 30 pages states which job it is for

One row per recipe, because one name can be read off more than one page: this box authors 187 values across 19 recipes, and a list de-duplicated by name would keep one citation and drop the rest.

What it can play

19 recipes across 12 roles.

On its own

Resolved against each direction with nothing else in the rig.

A rig is more than one box. These are what Behringer RD-8 covers alone, which is the floor rather than what it will do beside something else.
