Roland TR-06 Drumatix Rhythm Performer (Open Box)

With its sleek and stylish design, the TR-06 Drumatix Rhythm Performer is a sophisticated and modern reinterpretation of the classic Roland TR-606 drum machine. This innovative musical instrument retains the distinctive tone and iconic look of the original, while introducing a plethora of sound-shaping options, advanced sequencing capabilities, and a range of triggers for driving modular gear. Originally released in 1981 as a companion to the TB-303 Bass Line, the TR-606 revolutionized at-home music production with its compact size, affordability, and user-friendly interface. Its punchy midrange kicks, popping toms, and sizzling hi-hats became a staple in various music genres, from '80s new wave and punk to a wide array of electronic styles. The TR-06 Drumatix Rhythm Performer takes the unique sound of the 606 and enhances it with new sound-crafting potential and plush onboard effects. Musicians can control tuning, decay, and pan for each instrument, or increase the internal gain to push the circuit model into warm overdrive or aggressive distortion. The onboard compressor adds warmth and punch, while the tempo delay offers everything from subtle repeats to controlled chaos, creating depth and space in your music. The step sequencer, a familiar feature from the original, has been updated with advanced features like adjustable sub-steps for ratcheted parts, step-loop for instant pattern slicing, and per-step probability for beats that never get boring.
