Yep.  It's called drop sample interpolation.  It's very cheap
(computationally) and sounds equally bad.  Which is good in some
circumstances.  =)

As far as reproducing it, the RFX card for the E4 has a "Grungulator"
plugin that can do sample rate conversion with many different modes
(linear interpolation, sample-and-hold, impulse, etc) that sound very
similar to the SP12.

PS. note that the SP12/1200 is a digital synth, albeit with analog
filters (dedicated, fixed per output/drum)

PPS. "warm" usually really means "no high frequencies"
