Lell electronic instruments
Лель (Lell, sometimes also transcribed as Lel) was a Soviet brand of musical instruments including analog synthesizers. Its logo is based on Bronisław Zelek’s New Zelek, with widened proportions.
The devices were manufactured at the Lyubertsy musical instrument factory in the Moscow region of the USSR.
The series included the UDS, an electronic drum kit with a synthesizing unit and two drum pads (with a rubber surface) on a stand; the PSR, a digital drum machine; the RC, a digital multi-effects processor; the SM, an electronic percussion instrument; and the DD, a drive distortion pedal.
The labels for the keys and controls use a Cyrillic typeface (or lettering) that appears to be related to Bank Gothic.
The DR-9 uses a logo in letters that resemble the Ustav script used for Church Slavonic (compare Blagovest). Other fonts include bold italic caps from Helvetica and Brush Script.
