    Mojo the cat looks on as a musical performance with an Arturia Keystep and Moog Minitaur unfolds. He seems to quite enjoy it. Submitted by Bruce Oliver via our Facebook page.

    Mojo was my little buddy for 17 years. He loved synth sounds but would vacate the room if you picked up a guitar!

  • CatSynth Pics: MiniMoog Voyager

    CatSynth Pics: MiniMoog Voyager

    From @ModularSynths (Daniel.ModularSynths) on Twitter, we have this photo of a cat inspecting a MiniMoog Voyager. Specifically, it appears to be the Voyager XL model.

    Immer neugierig (Always curious)

    IWe are sure this cat is making some interesting music with his curiosity, although the Voyagers are monophonic. So we will only hear one paw at a time.

    Please tweet us your cat-and-music @catsynth to be featured in a future post and across our social media platforms.
