Synthesizers
Spitfire Audio Fractured Strings, Metasonix, Native Instruments, and More
David Levy and his cat return, with an “epic” sounding riff featuring Spitfire Audio’s “Fractured Strings” run through Metasonix models, processors from Overstayer and Thermionic Culture, and more.
Sunbub (Rhodes stage piano and Roland Amp)
Goonbug (aka “Goombub”) has found a nice patch of sun on this Roland amp. We see a keyboard in the back that appears to be a Rhodes stage piano. It is clearer in this photo.
While not technically a synth, the Rhodes electric pianos are among my favorite instruments and definitely an important part of any keyboard studio.

CatSynth Pic: Snowy and Modular

Shiro and Yamaha SK50D
We close out a week of white cats with Shiro playing a tune on a Yamaha SK50D. From hdgenis in Mexico City via Instagram.
The SK50D is a two-manual beast of an instrument, an ensemble synthesizer with a drawbar organ, strings, a mono bass synth, and more. It was released in 1980 and is quite rare. Shiro is demonstrating the organ section for us, along with a one-note vocal.
White Cat and Novation Launchpad
This beautiful white cat complements the vibrant colors of the Novation Launchpad (or at least the Novation launchpad box). From giorgiozucco on Instagram.
Snowy and Modular
Snowy has found a nice place to nap atop this impressive modular system. In addition to the TipTop Audio case, we see offerings from many module-makers: Music Thing Modular, Dreadbox, Qu-Bit, 4ms, Toppobrillo, Shakmat, WMD, Westlicht, and more.

Really want to make some bleeps and bloops but don’t have the heart to move this sleepy fluffball.
The Broken Cat
Definitely curious to hear those sound samples from this Broken Cat toy instrument 😺
Gerty and Tiny Studio (Ableton, Korg Volca)
Gerty returns with a “tiny studio” consisting of Ableton Live! and a pair of Korg Volcas. The Volca Modular is a favorite of ours at CatSynth.

Micro-Studio… indoors today, lollygagging around version…My intern is not amused by the squalling bleeepy-bloopy modular synth stuff…
Giuliano and Roland SP404 Mk2
Giuliano is back! And he is showing off his Roland SP404 Mk2 while getting scritches. It’s good to be the cat.
