ARTICLE N° 73922
Originally conceived as the drum machine companion to the Roland TB-303 Bassline synthesizer, the Roland TR-606 was compact, visually appealing and simple to program. Yet both the TB-303 and TR-606 were enthusiastically received and within a few years were appearing on the shelves of pawn shops and second-hand shops. However, in a twist that has become all too familiar in the world of musical equipment, a later generation of musicians - bands such as Sisters of Mercy, Nine Inch Nails and Massive Attack - would rediscover the TR-606 and cement its place in the pantheon of electronic drum machines. Using its cutting-edge Analog Circuit Behavior technology, Roland has meticulously recreated its classic sleeper with the Roland TR-06 Rhythm Performer. The tight kick, popcorn snare, crunchy claps and delicious analogue hats are all there. You can build massive patterns on its 32-step sequencer with up to six instruments, eight variations per pattern and two fills per pattern. And the TR-06 lets you store up to 128 patterns on the unit - a clutch function for live performances. What's more, the TR-06 offers a host of sequencer functions, including step loop, flam and probability, as well as a host of built-in effects that SonoVente's synthesizers have used to take their drum patterns to the next level. Capture a piece of electronic music history with the Roland TR-06 Rhythm Performer!

The other little silver box.
Released in 1981 to accompany the TB-303 Bass Line, the TR-606 was a programmable drum machine whose size, price and ease of use made it an affordable tool for home music production. Its punchy midrange drums, bouncy toms and sharp hi-hats were popular with autonomous musicians, and appeared in many of the genres of the 1980s, from New Wave to Punk and all styles of electronic music.

An advanced sequencer.
As with the original, the TR-06's step sequencer is familiar and easy to learn, so you can quickly program any rhythm. And it "s now enhanced with advanced features like adjustable step subdivisions, step loops for chopping up patterns, and step probability for creating evolving rhythms.
