via this auction via the forum"I'm selling my prized TR606. I bought it about three years back and got Tom from Analog Solutions to add the full tone tweak mod box and the midi in and thru at quite a cost. It was a mint and fully functional example when I bought it and it remains in tip top condition, 100% functional and its a 9.7 out of 10 cosmetically.
The amazingly easy midi mod gives you the ability to easily sync the 606 to a midi source without faffing around with converters. the din sync is still in place.the tone tweaks are where its really at. the controls add tone, mix, decay, and snappy to the snare. This mod adds expressiveness to this box that your ears will not believe. my favourite combination was the 606 through the Sherman Filterbank 2 (see my other auctions) theres something about the headroom of the 606 output that just brings the filterbank to life, it squeals and rumbles in ways i had not heard before, even on Merzbow records.
