Haha, touché!
There’s currently two bundles available: one comes with a black felt marker, the other with a spraycan full of zombie-green and a stencil sheet.

Haha! I’m holding out for the bundle with gorilla tape to mask the fader shoes. 
clap sounds very usable. is there the possibility to adjust the decay ?
The adjustable clap parameter is “density”.
As heard here: at 4:41
thanks very much. certainly seems like a great machine. i was very impressed with the TT-303
@AdamJay you are going to love this damn thing. I just got done hooking it up to this little effects rig of guitar/bass pedals I’ve been working on for months. I’m so happy with the sounds I’m getting.

This is the little effects rig I created for my analog drum machines. It allows me to send the snare to an overdrive pedal with a Neve transformer in it, the kick through an API transformer, and the rest of the mono mix to a Boss Dimension C to get converted to stereo. Everything hits the Allen & Heath, where I can add reverb. It sounds exactly how I wanted it to sound. Makes me want to cry tears of joy.

nice setup! curious to hear what the Tranzformer can do.

I love it. I use the EQ to cut the 400Hz frequency & boost the 100Hz, and I use the compression at its lowest setting because it’s too snappy at higher settings. When you set the gain just right so it barely clips, it sounds perfect to me.

I imagine it sounds heavenly.
Transformers are magic. I had a go last week with the JHS Colour Box https://www.jhspedals.com/products/guitar-pedals/colourbox/
I couldn’t believe how much that pedal sounded like my old Phoenix Audio DRS-Q4 pre/eq.
A Colour Box would add even more magic before the your Dimension C.
If only the high pass filter went down further, to at least 35hz, I’d pick up a pair for stereo work.
Then again, there is that switch to disengage the HPF. So I am firmly on the fence.

I’ve had my eye on that box. Initially, I was going to place a Malekko Scrutator before the Dimension C so I could emulate old school 12-bit samplers. But I really dig the grungy tone I’m getting with just the Dimension C. I can get it to slightly distort in very pleasing manner.

That Colour Box looks interesting. Wonder how it compares to Gap pre73. I tend to record all vocals and guitars through one of those lately. Doesn’t have the Eq options of the colour box tho and obvs not practical on a pedal board. The Colour Box might be a good alternative if it sounds as good as you say and plays nice with mics… Will try to demo one.
Here’s me jamming out with my Avalon over the TT-606 going through the effects rig I put together. It was tricky doing it all with one hand, escpecially muting and unmuting drum parts. I’m planning on performing live with this setup.

Nice. Meteore sounds killer. I’d forgotten about that pedal. Damn you

i pulled the plug, sold my 606 and have one ordered. i’m hoping the sequencer workflow + additional functions will make this machine even more fun than the original.
the expanded functionality will be super useful. p/s what’s the shuffle like? hoping i can make it swing wildly.
btw another sound demo here

Those 32nd note roll closed hats at the end of that sound demo are so funky!
Swinging nicely, there, also.
Mine arrives Friday.
The power of this sequencer has me considering a TT-78 preorder as well. I’ve been playing with those CR-78 sounds in Live to get a better idea on how they sound in a non-Phil Collins context, hehehe.

The TT-606 is my favorite drum machine so far.
certainly is tempting. the CR78 sounds a lot like the TR77 which i already own. don’t think i could ever sell that.
