We just saw Saruman with his Yamaha SK50D, CS30, and DX7. Now we can here them being played. While Héctor Genis plays a classic synth-pop jam with lush cords, Saruman bounces around and supervises, as a cat does.

Fran Halen with Make Noise, Moog, and other modular

Fran Halen is all snuggled and warm on a chilly day. We bet those analog modules from Moog, Make Noise, and others will help keep her warm, too.

Cat and a Cat on a Cat

It looks like our friends over at Triangle Synth Party in North Carolina have some cats on their Octave CAT. A little figuring covers the pulse width knob of VCO 1, and a sticker sits just above F sharp.

I should break the ice with a picture of my cat lounging on a synth…
This seems like a reasonable idea to us at CatSynth.

Saruman with Yamaha SK50D, CS30, and DX7

Our friend Saruman is back, and he is showing off his vintage Yamaha gear. We see a Yamaha SK50D to the left, a CS30 to the upper right, and a DX7 at the bottom. Three different types of instruments from three different periods of Yamaha’s keyboard and synth history.

Gracie, Arp Omni-2, PPG Wave, Moog

Our friend Gracie is back! She is guarding an Arp Omni-2, PPG Wave, and sundry other synths in the laboratories of Synthetic Dreamscapes, where my friend Alison works magic on these old synths (including our own Octave CAT and Yamaha RX5). You can find more at https://www.syntheticdreamscapes.com/

Handsome Tinto poses with a Moog Werkstatt-01 and an Arturia MicroBrute red edition. Submitted by composer deprieto via Mastodon.
Sadly, Tinto passed away two years ago. We send our thoughts to his family, and we hope that this post honors his memory.

Lautrec and EMS Synthi A

Lautrec sits atop a vintage EMS Synthi A.
Lautrec lives with Keith Winstanley in the home of Milo and the late great Jet. Follow the links to see their photos here on CatSynth.
A fun fact: this particular Synthi used to belong to Dean Honer of I Monster and Moonlandingz fame. Now, of course, it belongs to the cats.

Cat with SOMA Pulsar 32 (“No Contact”)
I’m a little envious of this cat having a Pulsar 32 from SOMA Laboratory (I’m still hoping to have one of SOMA’s works of art here at HQ in the not-too-distant future).
The featured track “No Contact” by SUBEXT is off their album Indigo System, available on the Facade Electronics based in northern Mexico.
