OCTAVE THE CAT Synthesizer - Sounds & Patches | Synth Demo

Published on Dec 18, 2019 synth4ever

"Demo of Octave The Cat analog synthesizer, featuring tweaking on various sounds and patches. Filmed at Paul's Boutique music shop (www.paulsboutique.ca) in Toronto, Canada.

Released in the 1970s, Octave the Cat is a monophonic/duophonic synth with 2 VCOs (2 sawtooth, 2 square wave, and 1 triangle) plus 2 sub-oscillators, 1 LFO, 1 VCA and 2 envelope generators (AR and ADSR). It also has some quirky modulation routings.

Both the original Cat and SRM Cat allow you to create some wild sounds including screaming leads, S&H patterns and noisy textures. It is a fun synth to explore as it offers a decent amount of sound design potential.

Octave The Cat is a classic synth similar in design to the Arp Odyssey, but with its own sonic flavor. If you have the chance to try one out, definitely give it a go."

KORG's Tatsuya ‘Tats’ Takahashi Returns to KORG as CEO of KORG Germany

via https://korg-germany.de

"KORG Germany is the new Berlin subsidiary of KORG.

Our instruments will be developed not only by the core team we are building, but also through per project partnerships and collaborations.

We are the flux, and the fabric it passes through.

TATSUYA TAKAHASHI
CEO"

They are hiring.

Tats is credited with bringing back analog at KORG, so this will be interesting. It's worth noting Behringer recently hired KORG's Hiroaki Nishijima.

MOS-LAB's Custom ARP 2500 System Clone

Two pics in via M Me.

This is a new custom system. New modules and new modulation matrix sliders on top and bottom. Rumor is that MOS-LAB not be selling systems with the modulation matrix, so modules only? If so, will they have patch points? These don't. All patching is done with the matrix switches you see on the top and bottom rows in these images. You can find additional posts featuring the ARP 2500 here.

You might remember mention of MOS-LAB creating a 2500 clone back in July here. An ARP 1026 Preset/Voltage Module Clone recently came up for sale. Not sure if it was from MOS-LAB though. As of this post there is no info on the MOS-LAB website.
