"About the Pulse Plus -
The Pulse Plus was manufactured around 1996 by Waldorf.

This has been known to be one of the best monophonic synths that can make some of the most amazing sounds!

The Plus version contains a CV/Midi convertor built in so it can work with older analog synths as well as MIDI synths. The notes can be sent either Hz/Volts like Yamaha, Korg, and others, or Oct/Volt like Roland, Moog, Sequential Circuits, and others. A very nice feature to have so you can run older analog gear with equipment of today all in one unit!

It also has an Audio input which can be routed through the filter and amplifier sections.

Don't let the simplistic design fool you! This little machine can make some really great sounds! fat bass to high crisps, it has it where it counts!
