This cat is quite relaxed between Max/MSP on the screen above and the Nord Modular G2 below, along with MIDI and audio interfaces from iConnectivity and Universal Audio, respectively. From tomhallsonics via Instagram.

Two beauties today: Mina the lovely black cat, and a vintage Korg MS2000 synthesizer. From synthguy on Instagram.
At least my synths are well guarded. Mina and the MS2000.
The MS2000 is a virtual analog instrument that combines the vintage sounds of the MS series (e.g., the MS-10, MS-20, MS-50) with an equally vintage industrial design, reminiscent of Korg’s 1970s keyboards. We know Mina and her human must have a lot of fun playing it.
Cat with a Roland JD-Xi synthesizer. From fangu_electronoisemusic via Instagram.
The JD-Xi is a great little instrument with analog moding and a built-in vocoder. I wonder how well that works for cats?
Sascha is back in the studio and ready for some attention. Behind him are the offerings from Roland and the Squarp Pyramid MK2 (to the left of Sasha’s rear).
From Neil Parker of Space Kitty, via Facebook.
I really need to get stuff done, pay some bills and this guy wants pets and head boops.
You can see more photos of Sascha and the late great Blixa via their tags.

We at CatSynth agree that cats make excellent oscillators.

Cleo naps next to a Korg Rhythm 55 vintage drum machine, while keeping a wary eye open. Behind her are a Roland SH-101 and an Arturia keyboard. Submitted by hotham sound via Twitter.
We at CatSynth are quite happy to feature Cleo today. I have also had the opportunity to play a Korg Rhymth 55 in the past, at the Vintage Synthesizer Museum. A bit in the instrument from Vintage Synth Explorer:
he KR55 was, for its time (1979), an advanced preset rhythm drum machine with up to 96 preset rhythm patterns! These patterns cover the whole gamut of presets (Waltz, Samba, Rhumba, Bossa Nova, Tango, Slow Rock, Swing, Rock, etc.). The KR55 also featured a “swing beat” control to add a variation to the groove. Each drum sound’s level can be individually adjusted for each pattern. It can also be externally controlled via footswitch jack for the Start/Stop and Intro/Fill switches. The KR55B was a black-chassis version released a few years later in 1982 with twice as many rhythm patterns. It has been used by Jean-Michel Jarre, Trio and Depeche Mode.

Finnegan finds a convenient spot next to an Elektron Octatrak. From @emptyvessel on Twitter.
new addition to the hardware table, I’d love to sample it but I can’t locate any standard audio connections, advice appreciated.
Our experience at CatSynth is that sampling cats is…challenging.
