Hi, I've got a tr-606 that I'm going to mod but I've read on a lot of places that the instructions you can find are wrong. Do you know where I can find instructions that are correct?

I bought an xbase09 from you a while back by the way :)

hi Dan, the ones i noticed that were wrong were the tom tuning on musicmachines, also some of the geoff waterstone ones arent quite right

[MidiChunk]

Is there some circuit bending done to the 60X??

[phono1337]

well yes, that box on the side i complely custom built myself

[AnalogSweden]
