Sam Sam, MiniBrute 2, Modular, Octave CAT

Black and white cat standing on a covered synthesizer and keenly inspecting the patch bay on an Arturia MiniBrute 2 analog synthesizer.  Next to her head is a small modular setup with modules from several manufacturers.

It’s rare that Sam Sam ever gets up on one of the synth desks, so when she did I rushed to snap some photos. This was the best one, with her standing on our vintage Octave CAT (safely covered) and inspecting the Arturia MiniBrute and RackBrute modular setup.

Jazzy and Modular

Jazzy’s photo looks like one of those classic “classy” synth ads from the 1970s or 1980s. He certainly knows how to pose.

We see a Moog and Behringer modules in Jazzy’s modular system.

Indy and Micromoog

Most readers are quite familiar with the Minimoog, but what about the Micromoog? It’s a somewhat smaller, single-oscillator synthesizer with a filter that is nearly identical to the Minimoog. It accepts external audio into the filter, so it makes a great processor as well. Finally, it has a pitch bend ribbon (like the CS-80), something its larger sibling did not have.
