CatSynth pic: Cat at Mixing Console
By @Production_Blog on Twitter. Submitted by Techno-iD●com via @catsynth on Twitter.
Yes, a mixing console isn’t a synthesizer, though it can be used as a musical instrument in live settings, as our friend Lob does with his Instagon project.
It is the more prosaic use of the mixing console, for recording, that interests us as work on my solo album heats up again. I do hope to have it completed by early fall.

CatSynth pic: Pilar and Korg Volca Beats

Pilar is ready to make some beats. #catsynth #volcabeats #synth #drummachine #korg
We have a Korg Volca Beats at CatSynth HQ and are quite fond of it, as it plays nice with both our modular/CV and MIDI gear as well as sounding like classic disco and house 😺

An Update on Luna (and myself)
Luna has been doing well with her current treatment. The pill-based chemotherapy has brought the disease to a standstill so things aren’t getting worse, and it hasn’t caused her any noticeable side effects. And she has been happy and healthy otherwise. She plays, basks in sun spots, and particularly likes curling up on soft surfaces like the blanket in the photo above.
As was the last about a year ago during her initial treatments, I am also recovering from my own medical adventures. Nothing that would cause concern, but it has required a lot of rest and a lot of patience (which has never been my strong suit). Luna’s health, vitality, and affection have been tremendous comforts as I recover. We truly help each other.

CatSynth video: Dicking Around with Braids, Rings, and other DIY crap
From Sean Pendleton on YouTube, via matrixsynth.
“Love Rings and Braids, need to build more of both. I can’t wait to build Clouds and Elements. Klee is controlling the Rings, Turing machine on the Braids. Drums are a Corny Rhythm controlling a Barton Analog Drum, Decaying noise, and Synthrotek DSM. Radio Music and Wogglebug are making noise in the background. Kept things simple.”
