Hand-built in Moscow with discrete analog components, this drum synth channels the raw spirit of 70s and 80s classics, but packs modern sequencing smarts into a slimmer steel chassis.
Seven dedicated voices let you dial in everything from punchy bass drums and claps to choking open/closed hats, plus three versatile generators for crafting snares, toms, zaps, or noisy fx—each GEN offers 13 knobs tweaking noise/tone sources, bandpass/lowpass filters, cutoff, resonance, sweep, decay, pitch, and click. The front panel brims with 65 knobs, 4 switches, and 24 buttons for hands-on sound shaping, while the 16-track sequencer (by Bruno Dupeyron) handles 16 banks of 16 patterns, chains up to 16 long, and sequences onboard voices plus 4 CV triggers or 16 MIDI notes. Connectivity shines with MIDI in/out, 7x 3.5mm trigger ins, 4x trigger outs, stereo 1/4" main outs, and individual 1/4" outs per voice—all in a compact 324x246x90mm frame weighing 3kg.
Users dig its tactile depth for endless sound design and integration with modular rigs, though some note the 16-step limit feels retro compared to longer sequencers—still, it nails that authentic analog punch.
