D16 Group has announced that Nithonat has been released for Windows and Mac OS X in VST and AU plug-in formats and is now available for purchase for €79. The final release version includes an updated GUI and a revised feature list since the original announcement.

Nithonat is a fully synthesized drum machine based on the classic Roland TR-606. The unique sound of this machine has been used by many artists over the years in the production of Electro, Hip-Hop, R'n'B, etc... Nithonat emulates the original 606, however, since Nithonat is software based, D16 were able to enhance the original with extra functionality.
