Tuna and Novation Bass Station

Tuna is back after a hiatus from CatSynth. And he is now sporting a cool blue and white collar that matches the Novation Bass Station on which he is napping.

Hello @catsynth this is Tuna. It’s been a long time since he was last featured here with a synth. As you can see, he now has a blue and white collar. There are houses very near us that are being built so we need Tuna to wear a collar for ID.

And, appropriately, he’s napping on top of a @wearenovation Bass Station 2 which matches his colors.

RIP Oscar, the purrfect Moog Inspector

Some sad news today in the world of cats and synths. Oscar, the cat whose photo sitting inside a Moog modular went viral and delighted so many, has passed away. We at CatSynth extend our deepest condolences to Oscar’s family.

Tuna with Korg Poly-800 and Eventide Pedals

Tuna is napping on a Korg Poly-800, along with an Eventide Space pedal and another pedal. Submitted by our friend thedigitalpurrgatory on Threads.

Here he is sleeping on one of his favorite beds: Korg Poly-800.

It really does seem to be one of his favorites.

Tuna and Korg Monologue

Tuna has found a comfortable napping spot on the Korg Monologue.

I just took out the Korg Monologue for a knob cleanup and this void decided to lie down and sleep. I love you, Tuna. You deserve expensive beds (i.e.; our synths)

Tuna and Novation Bass Station 2

It’s raining here where we are and Tuna is on the Novation Bass Station 2… For that analog warmth on a cold rainy night.

Tuna sleeps on Yamaha DX100

Tuna really loves this Yamaha DX100! We’ve seen him owning it in previous posts as well.

As always, Tuna sleeping on my DX100. He never fails to lie down and sleep wherever I put it.

Tuna and Yamaha DX100

Tuna returns with his Yamaha DX100 (because it is clearly his).

It’s Friday the 13th but not a bad luck with this adorable cat.
This is Tuna, btw.
That’s a Yamaha DX100 that he uses as his chair or bed.
And that’s a mini-blep if you look closely.

Tuna and Sora and Yamaha DX100

Tuna sits on a Yamaha DX100 synthesizer, and Sora sits nearby. According to @thedigitalpurrgatory on Threads, they are looking at an orange stray cat that showed up in their home.

Perhaps this mysterious orange visitor will show up in a future CatSynth pic…

It’s been a while since Rags last appeared here on CatSynth. Last time she was singing her heart out to a Roland SH-101 and Xox Bassline.
