Merp and Modular

Our very own Big Merp leads off the new round of CatSynth pics after NAMM and Buchla & Friends.

Behind him, we see the large modular system, with the Make Noise Tempi, Buchla Red Panel 158, Stymon Starlab, Sputnik Dual Oscillator, Dreadbox Euphoria, and many other modules. Next to so, and slightly under Merp, we see the Korg SQ-1 step sequencer.

Boris & Natasha with Arturia MicroFreak

Meet adorable kittens Boris and Natasha! We see them posing here with an Arturia MicroFreak (complete with vocoder mic).

Hello CatSynth, it’s been almost a year since we lost our keyboard playing cat Hookah, but a week ago we adopted Boris and Natasha. Today I let them in the music room and they are ALL ABOUT IT.

We at CatSynth welcome Boris and Natasha to their new forever home, and look forward to seeing more of them in the future.

Gerty, Arturia MiniBrute, Korg Duo Monotron, MS-20

Gerty is back, this time with an Arturia MiniBrute, Korg Duo Monotron, and Korg MS-20. Plus a guitar and a cool Tie-Fighter model.

Couldn’t figure out whether Gerty approved of the weirdo synth recordings i’m working on, then he gave me this face. I know that face, whatever the species it comes from…
