A cool hardware jam with offerings from Roland, Eletrkon, Nord, Behringer, Arturia, Strymon, and more. Watch for the cat about halfway through.

CatSynth Pic: Korg M3, Nord Modular, and more

This cat is playing a massive chord on a keyboard of indeterminate provenance. Above is a Korg M3 workstation and in the upper left we espy a Nord modular tabletop.

CatSynth Pic: Alesis, Korg, and Nord

This cat sits atop an Alesis QS7 keyboard. In the back, we see a Korg Kross workstation and a Nord Stage that looks quite similar (but not identical) to one we have here at HQ.

Panda with Elektron, Sequential, Access, and Nord

Panda the tuxedo cat holds court in a square of keyboards. He has some impressive offerings from Elektron, Sequential, Access, and Nord. From Andras Karoly via Facebook.

Here is a close-up of Access Virus keyboard.

Basti with Sequential Prophet X

Basti naps near a collection of keyboard synthesizers, including a Sequential Prophet X. We also see a MicroKorg and a Novation keyboard. From Andras Karoly via Facebook.

Here is a close-up of Basti sleeping.

The keyboard in this photo appears to be a Nord.

Please check out our chat with Dave Smith about the Prophet X from NAMM 2019.

CatSynth pic: Studio Buddy (Moog and Nord)

A pic from the studio of our friend and collaborator Bill Wolter. His cat naps in front of a Nord Electro and Moog Sub 37.

Studio buddy. She’s my friend until I start playing drums.

Our cats are used to all sorts of crazy loud sounds emanating from the studio, but I suppose live drums is something altogether different from a psychoacoustic perspective.

You can see the many other posts on CatSynth featuring Bill here.

CatSynth Video: Blush Response – Cat Synth jam (Elektron, Nord, Modular, more)

This cat seems to be enjoying the beat-based jam with a massive modular setup, various instruments by Elektron, a Nord Modular G2, and more. From BLUSH_RESPONSE via Facebook.

CatSynth Pic: Cat and Nord Keyboard

Cute cat with a Nord keyboard. From Man-l Adsr on Facebook.

Clearly, this cat has great taste in keyboards (this looks to be an early Nord Electro). We also see some of those stickers identifying names and notes of keys that we have seen a few other recent keyboard photos.

CatSynth Pic: Nord Stage 2

Cat playing a Nord Stage 2 keyboard. From Nord (@nordkeyboards) via Instagram.

We love our Nord Stage EX at CatSynth HQ, though we often covet the newer features of the 2 and 3. But not enough to replace what has been a fine keyboard for over 10 years.
