01 / Inside
Take it apart.
Five hundred and forty hand-soldered joints. Nothing glued, nothing hidden. Every layer lifts away so you can see exactly what you are buying.
02 / Signal path
Follow the signal.
Oscillate
Two analogue oscillators per voice, tuned by ear. Sine for the low end, saw for the bite, and a drift control that lets them wander the way old hardware does.
Shape
A four-pole ladder filter with a resonance that sings before it screams. Every knob is a real potentiometer on a real board, so what you hear follows your hand.
Release
Eight voices out through a transformer-balanced stage. The tail is long on purpose, and nothing in the path is digital until it leaves the box.
