"Octave The Cat analog synthesizer, their answer to the ARP Odyssey.
Recently refurbished by one of the best synth techs in SoCal so that the electronics are as good as the cosmetics (many Cats look great but are electronically thrashed - not this one)."
"Roland SH101 just serviced so working like a charm. It has had two mods done please see pics. 1st is a CV mod input for the VCF and 2nd the all important transpose hold switch."
"Recently (about a month ago) refurbished by one of the best techs in SoCal. Many 2600s are electronically flaky, and most of the 3604 keyboards are internally a wreck — but not this pairing."
"Today we have the Virus TI Polar which is an incredibly powerful little synth. It's particularly popular among EDM musicians, but it's capable of quite a variety. I like to think of it as the power of a nice virtual instrument but in a physical box you can take on the road. I just used a Kawai K4 MIDI'ed up when I want a wider playing range."
[demo] My Own Presets (Quantum) Published on Aug 26, 2018
"Due to the fact that I really don't like the factory presets, I decided to program some own sounds for this little monster. I tried to cover a wide range of sounds, including bass, bellish, wavetable and string sounds but also sampling, granular and sequences. Some of you want to hear sounds without effects so I bypassed them from time to time. I also jumped between some menu pages so you can see a few configuations. Have a look on the modulations - there are some surprises!"

"In this video I'm showing the resampling function which lets you record the output of the Quantum and use it again in the oscillator as a sample. Then I'm processing this sample with the particle/granular function, trying different configuations and values."
