We have a couple of photo theremins here at CatSynth HQ, maybe I can convince Luna to try playing one?

CatSynth video: Make Noise MMG Jam with Kitten
From grillobeats on YouTube via matrixsynth.
“Now that I have a kitten, it’s become basically impossible to jam on my modular synthesizer. featuring mfb triple osc, peg, doepfer 132, make noise rene and my new mn MMG”
Lots of familiar modules in this one. The kitten seems particularly interested in the Make Noise Rene. I actually haven’t tried out the MMG yet but now I’m curious.

And yes, the toy piano is technically not a synth, but it’s an instrument of which we are quite fond.

Can you guess which one is the rescue? @matrixsynth @catsynth pic.twitter.com/q0ruxB3v

@moogmusicinc @catsynth I think the Mini needs rescuing right about now. 🙂 http://t.co/ZG6rdkVLvH

So which one do you think is the rescue, the kitten or the Minimoog?

Quite by accident, starting a new tune with Oberheim SEM Pro and Oberkorn SL16. Puss is helping.

“Meow”
I need to find this cat toy keyboard! It would be great for circuit bending and future performances.
CatSynth pic: Hohner Electra Piano
From Michael Van Dijck via our Facebook page.
Here is an example of the Hohner piano in action:
In this video, Chick Corea plays a Hohner Electra piano with Miles Davis. (Keith Jarrett is playing a different electric piano.)
Electric pianos are of course not strictly synths, as they are electro-mechanical rather than electronic. But these instruments are favorites of ours here at CatSynth.
