The Soviet-era Altair 231 three oscillator synth with selectable waveforms for each . Low-pass filter with resonance and keyboard tracking. Portamento, indeed.
Imperfect, but not sure if it gets any fatter than this.

The Tom-1501 was a essentially a single manual keyboard organ circuit along with a filter. Interesting organ & string tones and a useful Harpsi-piano instrument.
Cheezy, a little noisy, & imperfect - in a good way.

The Elista drum module only generated 4 tones - Kick, Snare and 2 hats, but they were all good - very different from normal. 4 trigger ins & bundled with four pads.
