Mr. Puff relaxes on an MCI JH-110 tape deck that also features rack-mount control units and meters. He also has a vintage Roland JX-3P synthesizer in front. Quite impressive!

Big Merp with Big Modular
Today, we feature our very own Big Merp, who is posing handsomely in front of our large modular synthesizer installation. Other bits of gear can be found on the desk, which is where we do many of our synthesizer video demos.
The makers of all the modules are too numerous to list here, but we do list them in the tags.

Cat with Behringer Blue Marvin
Another Blue Marvin sighting! This time with a cat who “wants to be a Psytrance Producer” 😺🎛️
It’s so cute how he paws at the synth.

Pepper and Korg MS-20
The lovely Pepper sits next to a Korg MS-20 FS (green edition).
From Yluko via Facebook.
Pepper loves the new rack, I think she wants me to leave space on top for her to chill. She is such a great studio cat.
We at CatSynth agree that one should make space for cats in the studio.

Tina and Hammond 102200 synthesizer
The beautiful Tina poses with a rare Hammond 102200 synthesizer. Submitted by AxWax via Mastodon.
The Hammond 102200 is a new one for me. It’s a quirky monophonic synth with instrument presets (a bit like the ARP Pro Soloist) and an unusual matrix for modifying each of them with different waveforms, envelopes, and modulation options. I’d be curious to see/hear one in real life.

Juanita on Behringer Blue Marvin
Juanita stands proudly atop a Behringer Blue Marvin, a tribute to the early “Blue Marvin” version of the ARP 2600. Plus, the Star Wars poster makes her photo purrfect for today, May the 4th!

I got the opportunity to see a rare actual ARP 2600 Blue Meanie at NAMM this year, courtesy of the Alan R Pearlman Foundation.

Subaru, Dave Fulton, and Wall of Modular
The lovely Subaru enjoys some cuddles with her human, Dave Fulton, as they pose for us in front of an impressive modular synthesizer setup. A beautiful image of cats, love, and synths!
Submitted by Dave Fulton (@davedatt on Instagram).
She is lovely, but so insistent on being held for increasingly long times. I fail to complete anything quickly.
We do what we must to accede to our cats’ wishes.

Haku and Korg ARP 2600 M
Haku sits quietly as our friend Erik Ribeiro explores the Korg ARP 2600 M, the smaller-sized version of their ARP 2600 recreation. Erik also shares his thoughts on the ARP 2600 and his relationship with this iconic synth.
I like that Korg has been making sized-down versions of these classic synths. In addition to the ARP 2600 M, there are the MS-20 Mini and the MiniKorg 700sm. Just like cats, I want to take them all home with me.
Some photos of Haku with the 2600 M

Percy enjoys the Buchla Music Easel
Percy relaxes on the sofa while Joel Izquierdo plays the Buchla Music Easel. If I’m not mistaken, that is also Strymon Big Sky pedal next to the Easel.
Here is the same scene of Percy and Joel, but in green.
