Subject: Question about Cat osc stability

Question about Cat osc stability Hi,

I recently acquired an Octave cat (non SRM).

My Cat has really horrible oscillator stability. It squirms while holding notes. Sometimes it even will plummet down several octaves like a slow glide, or as if following an envelope release.
It definitely is way out of tune across the keyboard.
The question is whether you think a tuning will fix my Cat or if there is likely something more serious is involved?

I’m preparing to clean and tune the unit as I write this.
The Cat is completely disassembled. It appears that it may never have been opened and/or re-tuned before.

Thanks for your time,
Adam
