Modded Roland TR-606



Via mono-poly in the comments of this post.

"I got a modification done with my tr-606 and i am really happy with it.
My 606 got now trigger outputs for all sounds. And trigger leds to show witch chanels get triggerd. Now the days i use the 606 most times to clock my analogue sequencers and other stuff witch use trigger sources. It also got the the modification wit the noise output from the hihat circuit i am really happy with it!

There i am using it to controll a wiard sequantizer and vco i just got. and made quickly a little demo with it.

Here are some pics of just the 606

I am really thinking about another one because i could use more 5 volt triggers. And perhaps i want a module to control the gate time."

  1. Hi there

    I thought the wiard modules were discontinued, the 606 looks great I must get round to modding mine.

  4. Is this the Analogue Solutions trig out kit? Supposedly you can't have more than 1 trigger out active on a step or it draws too much current...

  6. This is a great collection of mods for the 606: http://www.confusedmachines.com/ .

    This guy did just about everything you can do to the drumcomputer. Soundfiles o'plenty.

    Although I hacked up my 202, I don't think I'd do anything to a 606 if I got one.
