Sylvester inspects his large modular installation. It’s actually three different modular systems. To the left is Serge format, to the right is Eurorack and in the middle is 5U.
This is Cassie (short for Casio). She’s found a nice spot on top of the Roland Juno HS-60 with convenient reach to the purple Behringer TD-3 rhythm machine. Submitted by Leanne Pattinson via our Facebook page.
The HS-60 is a “home version” of the famous Roland Juno 106, and includes built-in speakers. You can read more about it in this article.
If I were to get one of those TD or RD series machines from Behringer, it would definitely be that purple color.
Gracie is back, and performing her duties as quality assurance manager for Synthetic Dreamscapes. This time she is standing on an Oberheim DX drum machine.
The DX was the successor to the DMX digital drum machine. It’s a bit lighter, and although I believe it has fewer sounds it has an even more important feature: MIDI.
You can see Gracie’s many other appearances on CatSynth via her tag.
Spike poses handsomely atop his Valente electric reed piano.
Submitted by Simon Beck, who adds:
Spike is a 13-year-old-ish British Domestic Shorthair, though he prefers to be referred to as a Tuxedo Cat. He is often found playing his Valente electric reed piano, a Wurlitzer-like electromechanical instrument, hand-made in Brazil in 2022. Spike lives in Croydon, England with his humans, Simon and Karen, and their two adult offspring.
I am an electric piano player and aficionado, but I was unfamiliar with the Valente piano until now. I appreciate Simon and Spike introducing me to it.
