Kitty poses beautifully atop a Minimoog synthesizer. We also see a Moogerfooger, a Moog CP-251 voltage-control processor, and a Roland D-50 behind Kitty’s tail.
Submitted by Greg Marchesini via our Facebook page. Greg runs the Facebook group Moog Addicts – as big Moog fans (and owners of several Moog instruments ourselves), I suspect we will be visiting there often.
And while we’re on the topic, we’ll be sharing our interview with Michelle Moog-Koussa of the Bob Moog Foundation tomorrow on CatSynth TV. There will be a live premiere at 10AM US Pacific Time (1PM Eastern US, 7PM CET, etc.) where you can join both Michelle and me in the live chat.



Tico walks among an impressive array of vintage synthesizers, including several Roland models -Juno 106, JP-8000, and a blue SH-101 – a Quasimidi “The Raven”, a Korg MS-20, and a Nord keyboard.

In 2019, I had my encourager, Tico, who helped me take everything out of the boxes and reassemble it. Until now, the spirit of courage and resilience has remained focused; he’s a true friend in my mission π πΌππ€ππ΅πΉβ€οΈβ°β


Parker strikes an adorable pose atop a Roland JX-3P.
From our friend Charles Whiley via Facebook.
This is the same location that we saw Mr. Puff last week.


Mr. Puff relaxes on an MCI JH-110 tape deck that also features rack-mount control units and meters. He also has a vintage Roland JX-3P synthesizer in front. Quite impressive!

Hamlet, aka Ham/Hammy/Hamster, poses in front of a vintage Roland Chorus Echo SRE-555 and a vintage MCI JH-110 tape recorder with rackmount control units. Hamlet and his human, Charles Whiley, certainly know how to find these old gems.
Here is another photo showing the gear more clearly, and of course, Hamlet’s handsomeness.

Another handsome pose.



We see Buddy enjoying some sunshine while sitting atop a covered Ensoniq ESQ-1. Above him is a Roland JP-8000.

Buddy is my rescue cat. I adopted him from the animal shelter. As you can see he is totally relaxed and at home.


Coraline stands proudly atop a vintage Roland Space Echo RE-201. Her little skeleton stuffed kitty is cute, too.
Coraline is the official cat of Calsynth, a maker of modular synthesizers based right here in California! We also occasionally get requests about them, given that our respective names are just one letter off.

Suzy returns to CatSynth. She sits comfortably atop an Ensoniq ESQ-8, which is sporting a much-needed dust cover. Above her is a Roland JP-8000.
