Roland TR-606 Drum Machine

A fun and cheesy little analogue drum machine from the early 1980's. It's extremely easy to program and is great for producing silly "old school" hip-hop beats. I modified it to give the bass drum a little more punch as it originally sounded quite weak - like someone tapping a microphone with their finger. I occasionally plug it into my modular synthesiser for processing and to trigger events, but it will come into greater use after I eventually purchase some STG Soundlabs Time Modules.

A perfect example of the TR-606 being used for the sake of stupidity can be heard here.
