Mister Kitty returns today, with the impressive synth collection he shares with prophei.
I will leave off the list of synths as an exercise to the reader. Anyone care to give it a try? 🙂
Synthesizers
Weekend Cat Blogging: Luna (Noise Research)
We at CatSynth are always curious about musical contraptions whose names include “Luna”. The latest we have encountered is luna_NT from Luna Noise Research (aka luna_lab).
Of course, I had to coax Luna to pose with it. She was mildly curious (as she is with anything that arrives at CatSynth HQ).
But what does this contraption sound like? I managed to rustle up a 9-volt battery and fire it up. Here is a brief video of what we encountered:
You will have to pardon the bad iPhone videography. But it does give an idea of what the basic functions do. What I can do with it musically remains to be seen.
Weekend Cat Blogging #387 is hosted by Samantha, Clementine and Maverick.
The Carnival of the Cats will be up this Sunday at Mind of Mog.
And the Friday Ark is at the modulator

Moog attitude by Frank Herrgott
From Frank Herrgott on YouTube, via matrixsynth.
I just bought the Moog Voyager (rack version) and was very enthusiastic about the sound. I did this demo to share some of the sonic possibilities of this beast. I use only the sounds of the moog voyager and did use only verbs, Eqs, compressors ans delays as effects. I also mention that it is the first timle that I use Adobe Premiere (video editor), it’s a great soft.Thanks for passing by, see you soon on the net…. and have fun with the Moog Attitude! Frank Herrgott
No cat in this video per se, but our friend ____Lo____ on Twitter suggested that there was a “cat inside” with the rather feline melody of the music.

CatSynth pic: Mimi and Juno 60
From our friends at polynominal.com, Mimi returns once again, with a Juno 60.
At 16, Mimi is a senior cat. But she is still going strong, and has the best synthesizer collection of any cat we know!

“Votre chat aime-t-il la musique? Offrez-lui cette platine et il vous fera profiter de longues heures d’ambiance musicale. Elle coûte 30€ et vous la trouverez ici.”
My (undoubtedly incorrect) translation: Does your cat like music? Give him this turntable and you will enjoy many hours of musical ambiance.

“This track consists of the Roland TR 909 from here and the Korg from here… Also, the Korg bloops in the breaks are triggering from a master clock. the same clock is driving the TR 909 via R-sync and Simmons SDSV Via 96 Sequencer clock ( With MFB sequencer ) here… it’s awesome when everyone talks synth!” Including cats in freakin’ outer space!
