Formanta UDS (aka Rokton) soviet analog drum synthesizer

  1. Since the general layout seems to be close to US/Japan/UK gear anyone know which Soviet drum brains more or less copy existing gear (though the soviet and chinese components inside likely sound a little different) Which Soviet units tried something original? What struck me on a drum brain I once tried was the range was a bit wider so it made stranger sounds but the basic parameters and approach was similar to a lot of things.

  2. I have one of these also, I'm about to sell it.
    On the contrary the layout is quite different from almost any other rhythm machines i have encountered, bizarre in fact. a really strange way of setting up the box as a console to interact with. roland machines feel really natural and easy against this.
