    Oreo with Gakken SX-150 MkII

    Cat with small red synthesizer. The words "Analog Fog" are written on the side.

    Oreo returns! This time, he is showing off a Gakken SX-150 MkII synthesizer. Submitted by John Weiner via our Facebook page.

    The Gakken SX-150 is a tiny analog synthesizer, sharing some elements with both the Stylophone and Korg Monotron series. It has a solid feature set for such a small instrument, including multiple LFO shapes, independent controls for filter cutoff and resonance, envelopes, and buttons to automatically sweep the filter. Like the stylophone, the stylus is the main pitch control. A purrfectly cat-sized instrument, though the stylus must be a bit challenging for paws.

    You can see Oreo’s previous appearance here.

  • Selma, Tommy, Oberheim Xpander, Roland D-50

    Selma, Tommy, Oberheim Xpander, Roland D-50

    We see the inseparable Tommy and Selma next to an Oberheim Xpander and a Roland D-50. We also see a PGM-1000 programmer for the D-50, and various pedals.

    Submitted by René (@sportcatmusic on Instagram), who shares this:

    Selma is the orange one and Tommy is the black one. They were rescued from Ibiza 16 and 18 years ago. Since then, they’ve been together 24/7 every day, very lovingly. Selma passed away 2 months ago. Tommy has been alone since then and is having a difficult time.

    We at CatSynth are saddened to hear of Selma’s passing, and send our condolences to Tommy and René for their loss 😿

    A beautiful cat poses with a large modular system, featuring modules from Behringer, Doepfer, Erica Synths, and more. I like how the cat matches the colors of the modular system.
