Kriminal has released Felix, a freeware synthesizer inspired by the 1981 synth, the Octave Kitten.
The real powerful area of the Kitten was the modulation – the LFO / Sample+Hold routing to modulate the ADSR / VCO / VCF – it could produce many interesting effects and S&H sounds – ive tried to capture this in FELIX, as well as making it versatile in the normal spectrum of sounds.
Felix features
- 1 VCO (saw/tri/pulse) plus white noise generator.
- 1 LFO – sine/square/S+H.
- 2 SubOsc’s : square (-1 and -2 oct).
- VCF – 4pole LP self oscillating filter.
- VCA – ADSR.
- 200+ Presets (Michael Cavallo, Steven West, Shamanix, Luftrum, DLN and musicorner).
Felix is available as a freeware VST instrument for Windows PC.

Kriminal has released Mozi, a freeware synthesizer VST instrument for Windows.
Inspired by the EDP Gnat, Mozi is by no means an emulation.
It is a project i did for fun, and tho it may look similar and have similar features, it is far from accurate…

Krolar SX-2 features
- OSC1: sine/saw/pulse.

- AutoBend: begins below/above (-2/+2 octaves) key pressed and slides to that pitch.
- PWM: LFO/Man/Env – the slider adjust the pulse width or the amount of LFO/Env modulation (the LFO for PWM is a smooth sine with no delay).
- Pitch Mod: controls amount of pitch modulation by the LFO.
- Tuning: OSC2 has its own tuning section, Wide and Narrow (+/-1750 cents or +/-200 cents).
- the SH-2 was monophonic, Krolar SX-2 has a small red button (top right) that allows you to switch from monophonic (low note priority) to polyphonic (6 voices).
