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.

CoCo proudly shows off her new modular synthesizer studio, with towering cases of Eurorack modules. I have to admit, we at CatSynth are a little envious of CoCo 😺

Tony and Frankie (mostly Frankie, I think?) are having some fun with the Stylophone theremin.
We need to finally get ourselves one of those here at CatSynth HQ.
Haku poses next to the Dreadbox Artemis. Each of them is elegant in their own way.

Cairo is giving us some serious attitude behind the Moog Sub 37. Submitted by our friend Robert Saint John via Facebook.
Patch & Freak with Cairo the Sphynx! His proven method of slapping your hand if you spend too much time twisting Cutoff is guaranteed to make you a more creative sound designer.
Milo enjoys some relaxation and pets. In the background, we see a couple of Buchla modules; these are clone modules by Roman Flippov, a 291 dual filter, and a 230 triple envelope follower.

A bit about the Boss PC-2 from Vintage Synth Explorer:
The PC-2 is a very simplistic analog synthesizer featuring six controls to help shape various synth drum, percussion and effect sounds. It uses a single VCO with a triangle waveform and a knob to adjust its pitch. The sound is more often of the UFO bleep and bloop variety, although with a bit of help from the OEM manual, you can find the settings to make big bass drum sounds, castanets, tom toms, wood blocks and more. The Sweep knob can give the sound an ascending or descending pitch bend effect. The VCA envelope is limited to a simple Decay control (attack is a fixed hard transient). A simple LFO, switchable between Triangle or Square waveforms, with Depth and Rate controls can be used to modulate the VCO for subtle vibrato to crazy wobbly sounds.
Haku has found a nice napping spot above the PWM Mantis synthesizer. Below them, we see a Yamaha CS15, an Akai MPC60ii, and a couple of others.

Rubia plays a tune for us on her vintage Rhodes Mark I electric piano (I’m a bit envious!); a Sequential Six-Trak sits nearby.

This is so adorable! And I really need to get hold of one of those Stylophone theremins 😺
