Katie and Fairlight CMI

It’s not every day that we at CatSynth encounter a Fairlight CMI! But here we see the beautiful Katie modeling one of these iconic early digital synths. One of the distinctive features is the large monitor which had a light pen, as we see just behind Katie. It was used to assemble sample patches, observe waveforms, and even edit sequences (Page R).

Our friend Bread has his paws on a Teenage Engineering OP-1, which is safely beneath an acrylic cover. Both Bread and the OP-1 sit atop a Polyend Tracker.
