We’ve seen Tweek and Satie before on CatSynth, but I think this is the first time we have seen them together. Tweek is the tabby on the left and Satie is the gray on the right. Between them is a modified toy piano with springs and piezo microphone. The springs and the chamber of the toy piano make for some great resonance. And it is a purrfect input source for the modular system.

Shiro plays some notes on a Yamaha CS30 synthesizer (and inspects the settings). Below is a Yamaha YC20 organ.

Hürmüz returns, and he is playing a D# pulse wave on the Moog Grandmother. Submitted by Cengiz Arslanpay (@carslanpie) via our Instagram.
D sharp pulse wave is my favorite
I’m actually more partial to E flat myself.
Adorable kitten and a very cool modular sequence. From florigenix on Instagram, who gave a shout-out to the Befaco Muxlicer sequencer-and-switch module. I certainly hope the kitten found its forever home.
This adorable kitten is standing on an Erica Synths modular system in front of a full set of Behringer 2500-series modules. The latter are recreations of the legendary and rare Arp 2500 modular synthesizer.

We have another photo of Snowy getting comfortable on the large modular system. Snowy was also featured last week.

We at CatSynth are particularly envious of Sekhmet’s SYNTRX, a reimagining of the infamous EMS Synthi AKS, and hope to try one out someday.
Chuck is quite excited about his new Behringer Crave. And they are color-coordinated 😹. Submitted by Morgan Webster via our Facebook page.
The Crave is popular among cats at the moment. We featured kitten Baku with a Crave earlier this month
Our old friend Miep is back, this time with a vintage Kawaii SX-240 synthesizer. Submitted by Dennis Matana.
The SX-240 was a polyphonic analog synthesizer released in 1984 and is similar in many ways to the Roland Juno 60. But it did have its own distinct sound. Plus, it had MIDI and a nice display for loading and saving patches. It was overshadowed by the similar synths from Roland and Korg, and also came at the moment in the early-to-mid 1980s as analog synthesizers were falling out of favor compared to digital synthesizers (FM and sampling). They are quite rare these days, and Miep is lucky to have one.
