Ozzy plays an Arturia MicroFreak. Yes, the metal-contact keys work for cats, too.

Haku, Chichiro, and modular “expression skiff”
It’s rare that we get to see Haku and Chichiro together, but here they are, purrfectly posed behind a small modular “expression skiff”. We see modules from Doepfer, Intellijel, AJH Synth, a Bela Gliss, and a Cre8audio Cellz.

Next to Napoleon, we also see what I think is a Roland SH-9 vintage analog monosynth.
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.
Synth Jam with Cat and Korg Electribe EMX-1
A fun jam with a cat and a Korg Eletribe EMX -1 in a studio full of other synths. A great way to start the week!

Ringo in the studio
Ringo poses for us in the middle of “his” studio, which he shares with our friend Damien Olsen. We see multiple Korg keyboard synths, a Waldorf Blofeld, Line 6 pedal, and more. We also see some of Damien’s artwork hanging on the wall.
Some thoughts from Ringo:
“I like more sardines than contemporary electronica.
For me the golden age of electronic music is the 70s and the 90s, not crazy about the 80s.
and the last 25 years totally sucks, too much technology,
ego and noise, poor imagination”
Big Merp helps with Mercury-8 Video
We start a new year of cats and synths with our very own Big Merp! He tried to help us with post-production on the Mercury-8 video from earlier this week. He certainly made it a challenge at times.
Because of, or despite, Merp’s efforts, the video came out quite well in terms of audio/visual quality as well as informativeness. You can check it out below.
