Guest Analogue Wings Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 I have the chance to get a cheap 606 today. I quite like the idea of tru analogue hats as the hybrid/909 style ones on my JoMoX are a bit harsh. Since the 606 doesnt have MIDI, what kind of hoops will I have to jump through if I want to hook one up to my midi rig for just its hats? I'm thinking a 606 MIGHT be the cheapest way to get analogue cymbals, since no one makes a standalone cymbal module...

I can (and will) get a standalone handclap module for the price this 606 is going for. Non irritating cymbals are pretty important. sisforawesome said: 1. buy it.2. sell it to me. 3. profit. 4. ???? ..plus if it turns out not to have been worth it I can sell it for a profit Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/5310-hooking-a-606-up-to-midi-rig/#findComment-108679 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing. Quite a few (originally) free decent sites have stopped their erm free sample packs. Breakbeat Paradise being one.

Guest crystal Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 (edited) You could buy a Roland MSQ 100. It's a simple sequencer made for the Juno 106 with din sync and MIDI inputs and outputs. One can connect a TR 606 or another din sync capable machine to the MSQ 100, then connect the MSQ to an external sequencer for MIDI sync. Plug the 606 into the MSQ 100. Plug the MSQ 100 into the MIDI port on your PC or sequencer. There you have a TR 606 synchronised to a midi sequencer! Or one could spend more money by having a clever person add a midi conversion to the 606 itself. I think the choice is between wanting to type in drum notes to the 606 itself and synchonizing it to your computer, or typing the notes on the computer and having the computer play your 606 for you. The preference is yours, therefore the choice is yours. Good luck with your drum machine.

Chris Moss Acid Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 (edited) for best results over drive your mixer channel of the 606 and you'll never hear anything like it! uh i think you [well you#'ve bright it now] should of brought it for the sounds everything is fucking lush on a 606 the bass drum snare low toms [not so much hi] and cymbles and HH.. esepcially as you have 4 possible hihat sounds try x-chh o - ohh - none x x x x x x x x x x x x o - - - it has the analouge open hihat decay and you get a ride if you put a ohh on top of a chh the 606 is an amazing drum machine... i even take it on the bus and programe! also like crystal said unless your a gear head and want vintage machine untouched [like me] midi retro fits sound like a good idea but like the whole world knows i sequence my 606/303 dinsyc up to my 707 then into anything midi but that can go for anything with duel midi/dinsync sequencers Edited March 8, 2006 by chris moss acid Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/5310-hooking-a-606-up-to-midi-rig/#findComment-110090 Share on other sites More sharing options...
