"The sound circuitry of the Drumatix is mostly identical with the 606 and has been realized using present-day components. The sounds get many new parameters and new sounds are added.
Bassdrum1+2: The Bassdrum1 is similar to an 808-Bassdrum with its `down-pitch`, and the parameters Tune and Decay.
The Bassdrum2 is the 606-Bassdrum with the Parameters Tune and Decay.
Snaredrum1+2: The SnareDrum1 is the 606-SnareDrum (similar to the 808-SnareDrum with a low Tone-setting), with an additional parameter Snappy. The SnareDrum2 is similar to the 808-SnareDrum with a high Tone- setting and a more aggressive Snappy parameter.
LowTom + HighTom: Each of the 606-Toms has got a Tune-parameter. RimShot + HandClap: The RimShot uses the 808 sound-circuit.
The HandClap-circuit is very close to the HandClap of a DR-110.
Cymbal: The 606-Cymbal sound-circuit has the additional parameters Tone and Decay, like an 808.
HiHats: The HiHats are identical to the HiHats from a 606. There are additional Dacay-Parameters for the OpenHiHat and for the ClosedHiHat.
The sequencer runs continuously in all six modes.
You can switch between modes while the sequencer is running; the switch takes place after the last step of the current pattern has been played."
