    Gracie and Moog Little Phatty

    Gracie of Synthetic Dreamscapes poses with a Moog Little Phatty, the first of Moog’s new analog synth line that began in the mid-2000s. As such, this might be the “youngest” instrument we’ve seen her pose with to date.

  • Gracie and ARP Odyssey

    Gracie and ARP Odyssey

    Today Gracie shares with us an ARP Odyssey v1. The first version is distinguished by its darker design and stylized lettering – they took on a more minimalist design for subsequent versions.

    As QA manager for Synthetic Dreamscapes, Gracie stands on everything they do.

  • Scout, Yamaha SY-35, and Modular

    Scout, Yamaha SY-35, and Modular

    Persian cat sitting behind a keyboard synthesizer "Yamaha SY35" and next to a small modular synthesizer

    Scout sits behind a Yamaha SY35 synthesizer. We also see a small modular system – we’ll leave the identification of the individual modules as an exercise for the reader.

    Submitted by Carl Peczynski via our Facebook page.

    The SY35 is an interesting synth among Yamaha’s SY series in that it allows one to move between FM synthesis and AWM (sampling) synthesis via the joystick, a bit like the “vector synthesis” found in the Prophet VS.

  • Gracie with Roland TR-808 and CSQ-600

    Gracie with Roland TR-808 and CSQ-600

    Our friend Gracie of Synthetic Dreamscapes proudly shows off some vintage Roland boxes: the well-known TR-808 and the lesser-known CSQ-600 (that’s the one she’s actually standing on).

    The CSQ-600 is a digital sequencer, but with analog CV and gate outputs (it predates MIDI). It allowed both step and real-time recording and had four separate sequences that could be chained or stacked. It could potentially fit as a sequencer in today’s analog modular systems.

    Jazzy’s photo looks like one of those classic “classy” synth ads from the 1970s or 1980s. He certainly knows how to pose.

    We see a Moog and Behringer modules in Jazzy’s modular system.

    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.”
