His new producer seems quite demanding 😹
Gracie and Oberheim OB-Xa
Gracie of Synthetic Dreamscapes always has some great vintage synths to show off. Today she has an Oberheim OB-Xa polyphonic analog synth. As the quality manager for Synthetic Dreamscapes, she always “stands on everything they do.”

What a handsome assistant I have. He’s very good at sitting on the cable I need just now. 😻

Milo and Custom DIY VCS3
Milo proudly sits next to a freshly built version of the classic (EMS Synthi) VCS3. Submitted by Keith Winstanley via our Facebook page.
As mentioned, this is not an original VCS3, but a modern custom build that Winstanley recently completed.
It’s one I’ve been building on and off for about 10 years, just bought and installed the Ghielmetti patchbay, pin park and Predtopatch socket 🙂 It has a lot of features the original hadn’t but using original components and circuitry 🙂
We hope that Keith and Milo have a lot of fun playing their new instrument!
Rubia, Sequential Six-Trak, Korg MS-10, Casio VZ-1
Rubia sits atop a vintage Sequential Six-Trak synthesizer and looks ready to pounce on the Casio VZ-1 (to the left). Above her, we see a Korg MS-10 analog synthesizer and in the lower right corner a vintage Rhodes.
From AxWax via Mastodon. AxWax and Rubia also have a new sample pack out featuring samples from a 40-year old Casiotone MT-70 keyboard. We at CatSynth look forward to checking that out.
Indy and Micromoog
Indy proudly sits atop a vintage Micromoog synthesizer. Submitted by CRaig Flory via our Facebook page.
Most readers are quite familiar with the Minimoog, but what about the Micromoog? It’s a somewhat smaller, single-oscillator synthesizer with a filter that is nearly identical to the Minimoog. It accepts external audio into the filter, so it makes a great processor as well. Finally, it has a pitch bend ribbon (like the CS-80), something its larger sibling did not have.
