We at CatSynth agree. Big Merp is often our desk kitty, although he is big and our desk is small.

Barney in the Studio with Alessandro Cortini
Barney is looking very contented in the studio with his human Alessandro Cortini, a synthesizer artist whom we have featured in the past on CatSynth.
Head over to Cortini’s Bandcamp page to hear what he (and his cats) have been up to.
Identification of the synths left as an exercise to the reader.
Finnegan and Novation Summit
Finnegan seems particularly keen on the Novation Summit today. From Greg Cole (@emptyvessel) via Facebook.
Novation Summit patch design consultation with Finnegan.
I’m not sure what he’s so concerned about, should have used the Bandpass filter? Too much FM between Osc 3 & 1? Too much reverb (no such thing)? Not enough saturation?
🙀
We at CatSynth are confident that Finnegan will make this patch sing beautifully.
Blix in Blue – Behringer, Korg, Arturia
Blix (we’re pretty sure this is Blix) returns in a studio bathed in blue light. We see a Behringer Model D, Arturia KeyStep, Korg Electribe 2, and more.

Winchester with Moog, Sequential, Strymon, Alesis
Winchester (the cat) clearly loves being in the studio with his human and all their gear. We two Moog Mother-32s and another Moog synth to the right; a Sequential Pro One, the unmistakable blue of the Strymon Big Sky, and a device from Alesis in the lower right.

My little buddy Winchester loves being in my studio!
We love seeing cats and their humans happy together like this.
