We know Brian Eno loves his cat, but his cat really runs the show as we see in this interview.
Brian Eno and Angel definitely give us something to aspire to 😸🎹.

CatSynth Pic: Casio SK-1
A cute cat contemplates a Casio SK-1 sampling keyboard. Seen on matrixsynth.
“My cat came to look at it (pictured, looking at speaker), when I sampled his name and ran it in demo mode.”
We at CatSynth have a soft spot for our own SK-1. I have used it in several live performances over the years.

CatSynth Pic: Studio Panther (Arturia, Elektron, GameBoy)
A gorgeous house panther shows off her studio, which includes a MicroBrute and controllers from Arturia, an Elektron SidStation, and a Nintendo GameBoy. From Shaun Steven Struble on Facebook, who says this about the GameBoy:
My main composition machine. If I can write it in three voices on the gameboy and it sounds good, I know it’ll sound good when I expand it to the other synths.

CatSynth Pic: Big Merp and Roland JD-Xi
We all know and love Big Merp, but he never had a “CatSynth pic”. Until now. Here we see him sitting in front of a Roland JD-Xi synthesizer.
The JD-XI is a cool little instrument, a hybrid analog-digital synth with a built-in vocoder. I haven’t had a chance to try the vocoder yet, but I’m curious how it compares to our VP-03 (also from Roland).

CatSynth Pic: Gracie, Moog, LinnDrum, Arp, PPG
Gracie is back, and inspecting the current crop of repaired instruments, including a Moog Subsequent 37, LinnDrum, PPG Wave, and what appears to be an Arp Odyssey (1st version). She always has quite the collection.

Nepal sits in the studio ready to compose a magnum opus on an impressive collection of synths including a Moog Sub Phatty, Arturia MiniBrute 2S, multiple Novation instruments, and several vintage Yamaha boxes with that cool diagonal front panel. Submitted by Brian T Geigner via our Facebook page.

We can’t wait to hear what Nepal comes up with 😻🎹
