Banana Slug Synth Pic

Yes, it’s not a cat, but how often does one encounter a banana slug-and-synth picture? 😸

By Ryan Page on Facebook.

We occasionally have banana slugs that sneak into our house. Before releasing it back into the wild I let it spend a minute jamming on my synth using the touchplates on the Rene. (Please note that it was treated very gently and was allowed to crawl onto the synth rather than being picked up or pushed.)

In the 5 years I lived in Santa Cruz, I never actually had a banana slug visit HQ…

Duet between Mags the cat on Moog Theremini and her human on Korg Minilogue. This sounds delightful – the quantization function on the Theremini helps.

CatSynth pic: Merce and Roland SH-1000

Our friend Merce the cat with a Roland SH-1000 synthesizer. Submitted via Twitter.

It was in response to a via matrixsynth, originally from Electronic Musician. It described the many years of synth innovations from Ikutaro Kakehashi, one of the visionary elders of the synthesizer world and founder of Roland. He passed away earlier this week.

CatSynth Pic: Parmesan, Yamaha DX7, Korg Minilogue, and Scritches

This is Paremsan the cat. He comes to us courtesy of Anton Gabriel Largoza-Maza via our CatSynth page.

Parmesan paid a visit, looking at the strange new synth just beside the DX7.

What could this strange new synth be…

A Korg Minilogue! An excellent choice for humans and felines alike. But we think Parmesan particularly enjoys his scritches.
