Weighty is definitely a very good way to describe the drum sounds.

The kicks have incredible weight without any filtering - very powerful raw OSCs.

The rim and snare and clap options sound very good either clean or dirty.

Toms are a bit intense, tuned to be a little bit too hefty and far too much bottom end.

Hats are passable - nothing incredible there, unless you pass them through tube, which is my favorite way to monitor analog hats, apart from pushing into tape.

Cymbals aren’t my cup of tea.

Samples through the analog circuits are very nice indeed and make me want to pick up a Prophet 2000.

Best of all, there is a sonic consistency and coherency in the unit as a whole which means that if you are running some drum sounds or FX via another unit or software, when you bring the RYTM voices in they sound as if they have all arrived together, adding a new dimension of sound.

Big thumbs up, even in its very rudimentary state.
