"More info on the original Optigan can be found at Pea Hick's excellent website http://www.optigan.com. Pea is undoubtedly the world's foremost authority on the Optigan and has probably forgotten more than we’ll ever know about the instrument and its history." There's also a funny story about Tom Waits and the Optigan on the Inside Info section. http://www.gforcesoftware.com/ins_optitron_origins.php Cool comment about Pea on the G-Force site.

Less of a headache, than trying to do that with the real deal using the tempo knob to fine tune... At least the sh*t is in tune with g-force.

Color me a purist. G-Force has found a way to tap into both existing & new customers who cannot find an actual Optigan w/ this application to boost sales of their recording software.
