"This is a voltage controlled amplifier module inspired in part by a classic vintage design. The Oakley Classic VCA is based on the ARP4019 sub-module
Two signal inputs are provided, one DC coupled and the other AC coupled. The former allows audio and low frequency signals to be processed. While the latter has a high pass filter so that it can be only used to process alternating frequencies. Both inputs can be used simultaneously and each one features an input level control.
Two control voltage (CV) inputs are provided. CV1 is linear and is provided with a standard attenuator pot that can control the sensitivity of the input. CV2 can be operated in either exponential or linear mode."

"Here’s the first ever Super kiwi 106!
Here’s everything that’s packed inside ;
- custom white graphics and LEDs - kiwi edition
- the kiwi cpu installed perfectly And ready to go.
- a full restoration of all the electronics including voice chips
- fully calibrated
- lighted bender
- external chorus input
- and a special mod over on the far right called the “M3 mod” from the Synth Spa.
This M3 mod has separate frequency and resonance controls for every voice. It’s also set up to provide filter distortion , but we can change that upon request by installing a resistor pack.
As you play , the indicator light for the voice you’re currently using lights up, for easy tweaking .
Here’s 3 good ways you can use this mod;
1. In mono mode. When pressing poly 1 and 2 together , it puts the 106 in mono mode. All notes play at one time. You can vary each voice’s frequency and resonance for a bigger fatter sound .
2. In Poly mode , you can vary each voice for a more expressive solo .
3. In poly mode , during a sequence you can vary every other voice for tastier arpeggios and sequences. Every note can sound different .
Oh and btw, those caps are from a pg200. :-)"

First used one I've seen for sale.
"Played with it for about an hour. Overall this synth can cover a lot of bases, but I have a few (ok way too many) other synths that have become my sound for the time being. For the price to feature ratio, the cost of the synth is like Taco Bell money.
I have all the original box and contents. Screen protectors are over the screens. I will DOUBLE-BOX over original box and unit."
