Roland TR-6S Rhythm Performer (TR6S)

Powered by Roland’s proprietary Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) technology, the Roland TR-6S delivers the entire coterie of classic TR drum machines — including the 606, 707, 808, and 909 — in a streamlined unit. However, the TR-6S is so much more, arming users with the ability to upload their own samples and construct custom kits alongside the iconic kicks, claps, snares, and hats from the TR series — a feature that impressed synthesists at Music Bliss. Moreover, the TR-6S boasts a massive effects section, with numerous filter effects, dynamics processors, reverbs, delays, modulation effects, and a host of audio distorters, crushers, and manglers. With access to loads of sounds, modern and vintage, and limitless ways to manipulate them, the Roland TR-6S is the new-school drum machine with an old-school flair that you’ve been looking for!
