TR Drums for Everyone

The TR-606, introduced in 1981, was a programmable drum machine that revolutionized music production. Originally designed to complement the TB-303 Bass Line, its compact size, affordable price, and user-friendly interface made quality music production accessible to a wide audience.

The Indie Alternative

Featuring punchy midrange kicks, popping toms, and sizzling hi-hats, the TR-606 quickly became a favorite among DIY musicians across various genres, from '80s new wave and punk to electronic styles. Its distinct sound became the backbone of many classic tracks, and artists still seek out the TR-606 for its alternative approach to Roland TR sounds.

Plug In Your Own TR-606

Original TR-606 units are becoming increasingly rare and expensive on the used market. Using our proprietary ACB (Analog Circuit Behavior) technology, we've faithfully recreated the original analog circuits that define the TR-606's sound. Our plug-in captures the nuances and details of the original while introducing new features that expand its sonic possibilities for modern musicians and producers:

• Individual tuning and decay controls for each instrument, with the option to overdrive the internal circuitry for gritty new sounds
• Expanded TR-606 step sequencer with separate lanes for each sound, allowing for faster and more intuitive programming
• Eight variations per pattern for evolving sequences
• Drag and drop audio or MIDI patterns directly from the plug-in into your project
• Adjustable flams, sub-steps, and soft hits for creating intricate fills and sequences
• Unique "last step" and shuffle settings for each instrument, enabling experimentation with timing and groove

Hardware Integration

The TR-606 plug-in seamlessly integrates with our TR-8S Rhythm Performer and Roland Boutique TR-06 hardware instruments. Transfer patterns between the TR-8S and the plug-in, or create beats in your DAW and send them back to the hardware for live performance. With pre-mapped controls, you can also use the TR-06 for hands-on operation of the plug-in.
