Just a hint: it's still far from normal snare, but if you already have BD you can fry and lowpass it. It will be cheap and noisy:-)

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
Since my post, I managed to get some versions of a snare... I'd share up how I got them, but to be honest, it defies explanation. Basically I got lucky with a combination of pitch envelope, frying, and then a fast LFO on the pitch again, and a whole lot of other little details.
Although, I also had good results with some synth layering.
This synth is quite hard to work with. Fortunately, it's got pretty good options for basses, so I might use it again for that, down the road. Yet, on the other hand, because of a bug in Cubase, I can't save any of the 20 presets I've made so far. Ugh.

I'm glad to see new thread. I have had a longtime blackout for whole yesterday and today's morning, because of heavy snow and tree branches falling gratefully on energy lines all around my province. I had planned to do some drum patches for Rogue, but I had problem with being out of power. All I was able to do was to do some composition on my mobile phone. The drum patch puzzles me a lot, especially because I'm not sure what is fed into lowpass filter by default. Meh... I have problems with understanding internal structure of this synth... 
Still no upload button...-

I'd like to echo(pun intended !...or reverb)the sentiment of Rogue being a tricky one to program but MAN, it sounds great! It should not be hard for any one to get a very good track even just using the presets "as is".
And the prizes are a great motivator! I got Zebra2 for X mas and I'd love to add ACE.
Good luck to all.

Tricky yes, but great?! Man, you gotta be kidding:-) The main problem is its monotimbrality tho.

Re snare sounds, I got a snare sound .. still need to work on it a bit ... dont mind saving the preset and sharing it once I've tweaked it a little bit more.
I'll post when I have something worthy of passing on ... or I could open a folder for folks to upload presets at their leisure?
EDIT .... yeah, good idea I think ... so folder now open to upload presets you wish to share.

Yeah! Thank you tattiemannie!
Uploaded...
However not a very "normal" one:
"Enable Smiling" --- but it actually sounds more like a very creazy smiling :3 (3:14)
Done with 10 instances of Rogue
+ a little bit of "reverbering" on the lead synths coming in later in the track.
Used Cubase Studio 5 as host.
---but now, after hearing it the 500 time, i think it is missing something
maybe i will overwork it on another day.
(feels a little bit panic with all the new people joining :3, no more winning for me!)
