Input/output

The Roland TR-606 Drumatix is a drum machine built by Roland Corporation from 1981 to 1984.

Sounds

It uses analog synthesis rather than samples to produce sound. It imitates acoustic percussion: the bass drum, snare, toms, cymbal and hi-hat (open and closed). The sounds cannot be edited.^[1] MusicRadar wrote that "the snare snaps and cracks, the kick offers a satisfying thud, and the metallic hats sizzle".^[1]

Sequencer

Rhythms can be programmed using the sequencer, which includes controls for accents.^[1] The sequencer can hold 32 patterns in memory, and patterns can be sequenced to create songs.^[1] The TR-606 was designed to be used with the Roland TB-303 bass synthesizer, and can be synchronized using DIN sync.^[1]

Users

The TR-606 was used by artists including the Sisters of Mercy, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Skinny Puppy, Big Black, Autechre, Aphex Twin and Luke Vibert.^[1] It is used frequently in IDM. The electronic musician Kid606 took his stage name from the TR-606.^[2]
