Nithonat

Der klassische 606-Sound

Nithonat ist eine Drum Machine, die auf der klassischen 606 basiert. Ihr einzigartiger Sound hat sich im Laufe der Jahre in Produktionen aus den Bereichen Electro, Hip-Hop, R'n'B und Pop durchgesetzt. D16 hat eine Legende mit virtueller Perfektion neu erschaffen und sie um moderne Funktionen erweitert, die es nur bei dieser 606-Emulation gibt.

Erweiterte Funktionen? Ja, bitte.

Bei der ursprünglichen 606 war der einzige Soundparameter die Lautstärke. Damit Nithonat mit der Flexibilität seiner größeren Geschwister (z. B. 808 und 909) mithalten kann, haben D16 zusätzliche Regler implementiert, mit denen sich jeder Sound auf eine Weise formen lässt, die das Original nie zuvor erreicht hat.

Ein ganzes Spektrum an Sounds steht Ihnen jetzt zur Verfügung - rumpelnde Kicks, fette Snares und völlig einzigartige, ohrenbetäubende Toms und Hi-Hats. Zum ersten Mal seit seiner Veröffentlichung in den 80er Jahren können Sie erkunden, wozu die 606 wirklich in der Lage gewesen wäre!

One of a kind

Nithonat was designed completely from the ground up. Its synthesis is special – even when compared to Nepheton’s. It has very unique and characteristic hi-hat and cymbal sounds which are due to the emulated structure of the circuits in the original. The bass drum has unparalleled attack character and strong punch. The snare sounds sandy.

These unique attributes guarantee that this 606 is not a sub-standard 808 but is a great instrument with a unique timbre which will bring an old school feel to any track it is used on.

Proudly Different

Nithonat was designed from the ground up not only as a 1-to-1 emulator but as a standalone instrument in its own right. Its synthesis is quite special – even compared to our other offerings such as Nepheton. Its quirky , characteristic hi-hat and cymbal sounds come from emulating the exact structure of the original circuits. The untouched bass drum has tons of attack and character, but add to that our exclusive ‘Tune’ ‘Attack’ and ‘Decay’ parameters and you’ll be packing your mix with more kick than hot-sauce covered in ghost peppers. We followed the same ethos in emulating the snare; all the familiarities of the original, but with the added ‘Tune’ ‘Tone’ and ‘Snappy’ controls for a snare that really grounds a track and creates a sonic palette ready for production.

These unique attributes guarantee that our 606 is not just some awkward 808 stuck in a teenage phase. It stands apart with old-school timbres, squeezing its vibe to any track whether its progressive house or R&B.

Beauty in Flexibility

Nithonat has a powerful built-in internal sequencer with a clean GUI and simple, intuitive controls. In addition to having many internal sequencer modes , Nithonat can also be used as a sound module. All sounds and functions within Nithonat can be controlled via your host DAW, offering creative, familiar results. Operation of Nithonat is very similar to Drumazon and Nepheton – so if you’ve already delved into D16's previous instruments you can skip reading the manual!
