Loki and Polymoog
Loki sits comfortably atop a vintage Polymoog synthesizer. From aagtive on Instagram, who provides the following commentary:
Been using the Polymoog keyboard more lately. I’m finding on its’ own it’s rather limited. But the rock organ bass with the filter on can be be quite strong and effective. Also, by building an audio effect rack even the piano preset can become something quite interesting like you heard on my previous post.
Each note has its own circuit board apparently. Perhaps that’s part of the charm. I also enjoy the wobbly sounds I get when it’s first powered on and hasn’t had time to warm up yet.

I did have the opportunity to see those boards on the inside of a Polymoog recently.

Korg KPR-77 Drum Machine
This cat poses very nicely with a vintage Korg KPR-77 drum machine.
From Andreas Gregor via the Facebook group Synthesizer Freaks.
We at CatSynth were not familiar with the KPR-77. From Vintage Synth Explorer:
The KPR-77 was Korg’s answer to the TR-606 drum machine. Like the 606, the KPR-77 is basically an analog machine. Its sounds consist of bass, snare, two toms, open and closed hi-hats, accent and (switchable) cymbal/clap. Each drum sound’s level can be individual mixed via the sliders.

Debussy Rêverie Covered With Synthesizer
Artist Bai 白愿子 covers Claude Dubussy’s Rêverie beautifully with a Moog Grandmother and Werkstatt-01, along with the Arturia Beatstep PRO and the Wires plugin from Audio Things (A favorite of mine!). The cat seems to be enjoying the performance, too.

2600 Gray Meanie
A beautifully composed picture of a cat with a Behringer 2600 “Gray Meanie” and an urban landscape in the background. We at CatSynth consider this a purrfect combination.

Orion and ARP 3620 keyboard
Handsome Orion poses in a sun puddle in front of an ARP 3260 keyboard. This is the keyboard that goes with an ARP 2600 synthesizer. From Justin Sullivan (@justin3am) on Twitter.
The original ARP 2600 didn’t have a keyboard built in. The 3260 was the keyboard that one could attach, and usually appears with it in regular use. You can see our video from NAMM 2020 testing out the 2600 reissue from Korg (which includes the keyboard).
