Maybe STARVE simulates under-powering transistors and other components in the filter circuit? A big part of Louis and Bebe Barron's sound design was achieved by reducing power to their circuits, well below what they were optimally designed to handle (and sometimes by overpowering them until they burned out and failed altogether).
That's close to it, and there's more to it because these were not the "traditional" chips. Read more at cherryaudio.com/news/secrets-of-atomika "The (Mostly) Unfiltered Secrets of Atomika"
STARVE = voltage starving the circuit (mainly the op-amps) to the point where the circuit starts breaking, but still works. I'll definitely buy this. Although, as ever, I so wish software synths like this would have a simple switch to turn on/off all the modern additions, and have dedicated presets using only the original functions. Somehow, software companies don't realize that people are interested in discovering the possibilities of the vintage synths, and browsing trough presets which add a ton of fx and other modern options makes that really different. I really wish that would change: just 1 switch vintagemodern and let users decide what they prefer. Please :)
id like to have a rather stable than unstable polivoks tbh. the overly reproduced instability in remakes always held me back from being interest in these projects. i hope ca will fix this^^
