We kick off the week with our very own Sam Sam and Big Merp doing what they do best in the studio. We also see our trusty Nord Stage “big red keyboard”, Yamaha TX802 and TX81Z FM modules, a Korg DVP-1 voice processor (also from the 1980s) and sundry other gear. We also see one of our miniatures, a replica of a Mellotron.
I love having both kitties in the studio with me when I work 😻
This is so captivating! The sounds of a cat are beautiful on their own, but here they are elevated into a minimalist work of art with a bit of audio processing.
It’s “909” day (no matter how you write your dates), so here is Figaro wishing everyone a happy 909 day. From digitdgt on Instagram:

The Prophet 6 and the OB6 are analog poly synths that I have long coveted (after playing them elsewhere), but still do not have here at HQ. Someday, perhaps.
Big Merp helps out in the studio as we work on one of our recent synth-review videos. Specifically, it was Part 2 of our Cherry Audio Crumar Spirit review and tutorial.
Behind Merp we see our trusty Nord Stage keyboard, our Pro Tools system, and various bits of studio gear including the Roto-Control from Melbourne Instruments, Novation Launch Control, and some preamps and compressors.
Mochi poses adorably on an upright piano and plays an E flat for us. The sheet music appears to be in C major, so an E flat is a rather bold choice.
