This past summer I acquired a non-functioning Octave Cat SRM monophonic analog synthesizer. It was only making slow clicks but the filter and noise circuitry worked. I spent about three weeks troubleshooting it with the help of some folks in the online synth community. Thankfully I was able to bring it back to life. I completely rebuilt the power supply, replaced about half the ICs, and all the capacitors. I also refurbished the Pratt Reed keybed and refinished the wood side panels.
It sounds amazing; like raw voltage surging through wires. This is a little clip I made just messing around. I'm looking forward to adding this little kitty to my music.
Reverb is the Reverb Foundry HD-Cart. Delay is u-he Colour Copy. A bit of FabFilter Pro-L2 on the output and that's it. Edited in DaVinci Resolve.

I love this sort of ambient soundscaping. I purchased a Wurly 200 that I am slowly restoring from a guy in San Jose, but the thing that caught my eye was the dusty Octave Cat he had sitting next to it. When asked if he would be willing to sell it, he responded "not on your life." Now I see why.

I had an Octave Cat in the late 70s. What a great classic instrument! I wish I still had it.

This is really cool, Jim. Has a great timbre. Worth all your research and hard work to repair. Heirloom piece for sure!

I love your synthesizer and ambient side. Keep it coming, but also the organ funk.

Great work! Both the restoration and the music. Ir should be the intro to a great record! :)

Sounds really great, that would be something that Gil Melle would have really liked. He even built electronic synths himself and used them either alone or with orchestral instruments for music for TV shows such as Night Gallery, Kolchak The Night Stalker and quite a few others.
