This handsome cat is in command in the studio, with a Roland System 8 (top), Behringer VC340 vocoder (center right), and a silver device that will be left as an exercise to the reader. [Update. An astute reader identified this as a Vermona DRM-1]

Acid cat
I have to admit, this red TD-3 is quite pretty (especially with the translucent case). A quite Google search also turned up a purple edition…

Cat in the Studio (Behringer, Modular and more)
The white cat from Kamal Sabran’s studio returns. We see a Behringer Poly D and DeepMind, sundry modular, and a lot of beautiful retro gear including reel-to-reel tape recorders. A microKORG appears to be stacked in the lower-left corner.

A cute orange cat and a Boss “Dr. Rhythm” DR-660 come together in this bright photo. From Fa Szi via Facebook.
There is an old DR-660 here at CatSynth HQ, but I haven’t been able to get it to work. This image inspires me to try it again.

Mackie and MacBeth M5 (plus Future Retro and Yamaha)
Mackie the cat with a MacBeth M5 synthesizer. We also see a Future Retro Orb sequencer and a Yamaha Reface. From Phil Walling via Facebook.
Mackie (cat) working the ‘Mackie’ (MacBeth M5)
The MacBeth M5 is modern but rare analog synthesizer. It is reminiscent of a black-and-orange ARP 2600, but is a completely different instrument.
While reminiscent of the 2600, this is not a clone. It’s a semi-modular synthesizer that features a significant array of real-time analog controls with absolutely no digital circuitry at all. Totally faithful to the design and concept of early analog synthesizers, all sounds must be created by hand, tweaking knobs, patching cables and using a bit of creativity. There is no patch memory, no MIDI and no USB. Just really great analog sounds.

CatSynth Pic: UDO Super 6
Our Maine Coon friend is back, this time with a brand new UDO Super 6 synthesizer. From lwxbeats on Instagram.
#udosuper6 landed home today and she can’t wait to play with it! 😃
The UDO Super 6 takes inspiration from Roland Jupiter series (one can see this in the switches, sliders, etc.), but is its own instrument, using FPGAs to implement the oscillators and sporting a binaural architecture with separate voices for each stereo channel. We at CatSynth would be very curious to try this out.

CatSynth Video: Polyend Tracker Wonky Beats
Some cool beats with the Polyend Tracker. Cookie the cat seems to enjoy it.
From Polyend’s YouTube channel, via matrixsynth.
“Polyend Tracker Wonky Beats, chilling with Cookie 🙂
by Isobutane”
The Polyend Tracker is a tabletop synthesizer and sequencer combo that reimagines the classic “trackers” from the 1990s. It has sampling, wavetable, granular and an FM radio built in.
