Haku poses with an ASM Hydrasynth 888. We see Chihiro in the background. She is a bit more visible in this second photo.
I have to admit, I really like the orange color on this one.

Updated the @ashunsoundmachines Hydrasynth Explorer 888 and a bunch of other gear with fresh firmware on Sunday. Haku and Chihiro got up close and personal to inspect the process.
If you’re curious what the firmware update looks like:
The beautiful Tina poses with a rare Hammond 102200 synthesizer. Submitted by AxWax via Mastodon.
The Hammond 102200 is a new one for me. It’s a quirky monophonic synth with instrument presets (a bit like the ARP Pro Soloist) and an unusual matrix for modifying each of them with different waveforms, envelopes, and modulation options. I’d be curious to see/hear one in real life.
Fritzie is back helping out in the studio. We see two monitors behind him with a Logic session, a Behringer X-Touch One, a Behringer Edge percussion synth, an Arturia MicroFreak directly below him, a Modal Electronics Argon, and more.
Chihiro enjoys rubbing up against the modular in this adorable video. She seems to particularly like the Happy Nerding modules and a MOK Waverazor. I also noticed the Behringer vocoder module, the Piston Honda from Industrial Music Electronics, and more.
From our friend Erik Ribeiro (@ericsuperlazy on Instagram), who notes that Chihiro was probably most taken with the case itself, a Dopfer Low Cost LC with its vinyl-like siding.
Juanita stands proudly atop a Behringer Blue Marvin, a tribute to the early “Blue Marvin” version of the ARP 2600. Plus, the Star Wars poster makes her photo purrfect for today, May the 4th!
