These actually come up fairly often under various brand names including the Coron DS8, Asama Drum Sync, Storm Drum Sync, Grant PS-7 Percussion Synth, KMD Drum Exciter, and possibly more. What's really odd is there appears to be a Cortez D-3 with the same controls. See the labels below for other branding.
