Masterpiece Rejuvenated
Great care has been taken in designing the RD-6-AM to achieve new possibilities in beat creation by reviving a timeless design from one of the most classic drum machines of yesteryear.

The RD-6-AM also comes with a distortion based on the venerable DS-1. Add spice and a bit of edge to your tone by flipping the Distortion switch on and adjusting the amount and tone of the distortion. Each pattern you create can also be chained into a whole song up to 256 bars which adds up to eight and a half minutes of beats perfect for those spicy jams where you just can't stop.
USB Control
To bring the RD-6-AM into the modern age, USB connectivity has been added for sync and MIDI triggering. This enables the RD-6-AM to be controlled by your DAW if desired, allowing songs and patterns to be swapped or individual sounds to be triggered.
