Schwa say that their Olga is a virtual analog synthesizer unlike any other, designed from first principles to be distinctive.
A spokesperson had this to say, � Imagine a handmade experiment from an unlikely place, a synthesizer so full of life and character that it earns the right to be called a musical instrument. Olga encourages risk, experimentation, and exploration, and rewards you with unexpected and exciting sounds, vibrant and human. This is the dusty gem you could spend your life searching for.�
BADASS GROOVE is the acronym used to describe Olga’s workings, here’s the details from Schwa…

• Bezier Antialiased Dynamic Analog Synthesis System: Olga uses a truly new approach to DSP waveform generation to emulate glorious analog imperfection. Olga’s free running oscillators are in a constant state of structured variability, a deeply musical instability, free of aliasing artifacts and light on your CPU.
• Gaussian Reactive Oscillator Overdrive Virtual Engine: Throughout Olga’s signal path, levels can be pushed through saturation and into full overdrive, with a thickness that develops organically, breathing life and character into your music.

The makers say that Olga has been tested in the following audio host applications: Ableton Live 7, Chainer, Cubase SX3 and C4, Energy XT2, FL Studio 7, Forte, Reaper, Samplitude 9, Sonar 7, Tracktion. An evaluation copy for Windows is available, with an AU version coming soon.
