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.
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 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”

We also see a Line 6 delay pedal, Korg M50 and TR61 keyboard synthesizers, a Roland SP-404 SX sampler, and more.
Tuna cleans himself while playing a drone on a Korg Poly-800 synthesizer. There is actually a lot of complex variation in here (presumably from the connection to Ableton Live).
