Suzy sits atop a Moog Etherwave theremin. She is well within the electromagnetic field of the instrument, so she should be able to play us a little something.

ModularTrax (Aphex Twin’s Cat in studio)
This photo, which was spotted by our friend and regular reader @scrottie on Mastodon, is apparently of Aphex Twin’s cat in his studio. We were able to track down its provenance, and indeed it is from the companion tracks released to SoundCloud in conjunction with the Syrobonkers interview (with David Noyze). Here is the full playlist on YouTube, with the cat photo.
I actually quite enjoyed these little modular experiments, quite inspiring.
Tony and Frankie epic solo and reaction
Leo, Nagra Tape Recorder, Monome, Modular, SOMA Pulsar
Leo has it all. A vintage Nagra tape recorder on which to nap, a large modular system, Monome Grid and Arc controls, and a SOMA Laboratory Pulsar in the back.

Scottish Fold, Moog Matriarch, and Roland VP-03
A beautiful Scottish Fold cat poses with a Moog Matriarch, a Roland VP-03 boutique vocoder, and a Korg NANO controller. I also see what looks like a vintage Macintosh mouse.

Orion with Cocoquantus and ARP 3620
Orion leans on a Cocoquantus 2, a very distinctive-looking instrument with its wooden construction and colorful banana jacks. It is a design by Ciat Lombarde, whose unusual, chaotic designs we have discussed in the past here on CatSynth. We also see an ARP 3620 keyboard in the background.

Sora and Telecaster
Sora doesn’t enjoy only synths. Here she is napping on a Fender Telecaster.

Haiku and XAOC Modular System
Haiku doesn’t seem too impressed by this XAOC modular system, which is being rearranged in a Doepfer A-100 case. However, we at CatSynth are quite impressed with it.
