"The Kitten is a classic analog synthesizer from 1977 (before the days of digital synths, sequencers, built-in disk drives, and MIDI cables). Manufactured by Octave as a competitor to the leading synths of the late '70s (from vendors such as Moog and ARP), this baby is a streamlined version of Octave's more powerful synth called the Cat (hence its youthful name).
The interface is very clean and friendly, thanks to its straightforward and well-labeled layout. The knobs and sliders all move well. The keys are all in great condition, as is the case, trim, and power unit. There are slight visible signs of wear over the years but the unit has no significant scratches, chips, dents, or other physical ailments.
This handy little synth is extremely useful as a lead machine. It purrs a great tune, and is awesome at space bleeps, bloops, and sound effects that are the best this side of Forbidden Planet. And what's even better is the massive sub-oscillator (actually, the two sub-octaves are independently controlled!) that fattens up the sound! We're talking serious bass here!"
