The handsome Mr. Bean is exploring his household camouflage options and has found the purrfect spot on the black piano.
From Laura L on BlueSky, who adds:
He was rescued from a parking lot at 2 weeks old. He is now 2 years [old], and sometimes steps in to help me teach piano students.
Rescue stories like this always warm our hearts at CatSynth.

We need to try this with Sam Sam.
Edward (Ed) finds a cosy spot next to a large Eurorack modular system. We see a Euclidean Circles modules from vpme, several DIY-built modules from Nonlinear Circuits with the colorful knobs, a Make Noise Maths, and a Volts Platz from Frequency Central.

Beautiful Lilly sits atop a Yamaha DX21 synthesizer. Behind her, we espy a Teenage Engineering Pocket Operator. (The reel-to-reel tape recorder is nice as well.)

Cat on my first synth, the Yamaha DX21
The DX21 was a 4-operator FM synth in Yamaha’s DX line. Not quite as powerful as the 6-operator instruments like the DX7, or the later 4-operator synths like the TX81Z, but nonetheless fully capable of complex FM synthesis. It also featured multiple layers and keyboard splits, which separated it from the other 4-operator instruments at the time like the DX27 and DX100. (Yes, there were a lot of DXs in the 1980s.)
Beautiful black cat KC sits atop a very large and impressive modular system. We also see a Novation controller.
From our friend Jack Hertz, whom we hope gets a chance to share the modular with KC.
Sidney Crosby does what cats do best and has jumped up on the platform with numerous pedals and mini-synths belonging Scott Smigiel.

Tuna naps atop a Novation Bass Station and a Yamaha DX7. From thedigitalpurrgatory on Instagram.
Tuna reclaiming his spot.
Presumably, Tuna is reclaiming from Sora, whom we saw napping on this same Bass Station a week ago. We at CatSynth know this territorial rivalry all too well, as Sam Sam and Big Merp are constantly vying for territory and resources (i.e., they are being cats).
Albert has found a nice sunny spot in the studio. We see a Roland SH-101, Korg Eletribe, and Elektron Digitone next to him. It appears that he is sitting on a Roland TB-303 (or similar) with a dark panel, and another rhythm machine.

Today we have a beautiful black cat with green eyes – a lot like our beloved Luna. First, with Korg Volca and Roland AIRA offerings.
And now some instruments from Elektron (along with an iPad)
