RMIF (Rīgas mūzikas instrumentu fabrika, Riga Music Instruments Factory) was the largest Soviet electronic music instrument manufacturer. It was based in Riga (former USSR, now Latvia). RMIF synthesizers became very popular among rock and pop bands in Eastern Bloc. The plant also produced drum kits. After the dissolution of the USSR in 1991 RMIF went bankrupt.
