A beautifully composed photo of Winston playing a Korg NTS-1 Nu: Tekt kit. Submitted by Ryan Garner via our Facebook page.
The NTS-1 is an interesting little device. It has the same oscillator/DSP system as the Minilogue XD and Prologue, and allows one to create new oscillators and effects for any of these three devices. We have one here at CatSynth HQ.
Rimuru has grown quite a bit since he last appeared on CatSynth as a tiny kitten. Here he is as a handsome fellow posing confidently with the same ASM Hydrasynth and Prophet 08, now joined by a Korg Minilogue XD. I also think that’s the same Roland Fantom that he posed on last time. We also see a cool-looking Eurorack system to the left, but we’ll leave identification of the modules as an exercise to the reader.
Our friend Gracie of Synthetic Dreamscapes struts across a vintage Korg Trident, specifically the mkII version.
You can see Gracie’s many appearances via her tag.

This is just a little Sunday treat for you, because I am not able to do a livestream today. The track starts with a pad from the Korg Wavestate, which I used as in its native plugin version. The following sequence uses the wavetable engines of Waldorf’s Iridium. The bass is from the Prophet 10 and the lead melody from the Arturia Minifreak. Effects are U-He Color Copy, Valhalla DSP Shimmer.
Neptun went into a hyperactive state when I started the recording, he played a note (this time in key!) at 03:19
Submitted by Dmitri Bronson of Slope 114 via our Facebook page. Scratchy is definitely enjoying this demo featuring synths from Buchla, Arp, and Korg.
Rubia sits atop a vintage Sequential Six-Trak synthesizer and looks ready to pounce on the Casio VZ-1 (to the left). Above her, we see a Korg MS-10 analog synthesizer and in the lower right corner a vintage Rhodes.
From AxWax via Mastodon. AxWax and Rubia also have a new sample pack out featuring samples from a 40-year old Casiotone MT-70 keyboard. We at CatSynth look forward to checking that out.

We’ve featured this same cat and synth before, back in 2019. You can see them here.
Ringo joins us from Brooklyn and shares with us a brief jam on a Roland SP-404SX, Korg TR 61 workstation, Zoom G3 effects box, and Waldorf Blofeld. From our friend Damien Olsen.
You can see a bit of a show that both Damien and I played in Brooklyn back in 2019
