Ron naps comfortably atop a virginal, a small, rectangular type of harpsichord. Submitted by Ann Ramsey (@annxramsey on Threads).
Virginals use the same plucking mechanism for the springs as standard harpsichords, but usually only have one string per key, and lay them out transversely in a rectangular case like we see with Ron’s keyboard above.
Ollie loves to nap on the Yamaha digital piano and soak up the morning sun.

Gibbous stands proudly atop a Novation UltraNova. Behind him, we see a large Eurorack modular system. We also see a Nord Modular and sundry pedals.

Winchester advises me to play more Mellotron.
Winchester is a wise kitty.
You can see his previous appearance on CatSynth here.
Handsome buddy sits atop a Korg Microsampler. We see a Behringer TD-3 up front, and the Korg MS-20 Mini to the left.
Submitted by fan Erik Gibbels via our Facebook page. He shared a bit more about Buddy:
He is with me for about 2 months now. I adopted him from the shelter. He was found on the street. He is making very good progress as he was afraid of humans. I always wanted to have a red cat. He goes well with my 2 girls Kitty and Suzy.
Dahlia strikes another beautiful pose, this time next to the Roland JP-8080. In the background, we also see a Korg MiniKorg 700, an Ensoniq ESQ-1, and a red Roland SH-101. We at CatSynth particularly covet a couple in this collection.

Chichiro peers inside a case with modules from XAOC Devices.

Chihiro was eager to climb into the bottom section of the XAOC Box. Once again, I was moving stuff around which meant taking just about everything out to get to the ribbon cable headers.
This expression speaks volumes 😸
The beautiful Dahlia returns, and she has brought some great vintage Roland machines: the MC-202 rhythm composer and the JP-8080 virtual analog module.

MC-2oh2 and Grand Duchess Dahlia Darling of Meowington Manor (Dahlia for short)…I interrupted a meowing and rubbing tirade to snap this pic. She went back to meowing and rubbing immediately after. She’s the best puss.
