Squishiest drum machine?

What drum machine is the squishiest?

Sometimes I can get a Machinedrum to squish but it always has a graininess. LFOs can squish a sound.

A Plumbutter or Double Knot get pretty squishy but they're both obtuse and their obtuseness makes them less squishy. Like when I patch them, the patch points are invisible or meaningless.

Anyway, I'm looking for maximum squish. Don't care about analog or digital as long as it squishes. Feel free to dump any particularly squishy synths in here, too.

What I meant was the quality of squishiness in the sound of the drum machine. Not its compression or ability to be compressed but like a squish sound. Like a moist squish. Making a fist around a handful of berries.

BLOOPS. ER-1 has some squish.

What a great drum box, squish-mode or not. Perfect for some quick and dirty bloop bonks in any situation.

Seems like the only option is to run an ER1 MK1 alongside a sampler filled to the brim with squish sounds...

EDIT: I'll take any squish sampler recos.
