Modular synth aside, that chair would be perfect at CatSynth HQ 🙂

CatSynth pic: Samantha and Akai AX80
Submitted by Andrew Wayne, who appeared at this year’s Outsound Music Summit Touch the Gear event.
“Here is my cat, Samantha, taking a little nap by my Akai AX80.”
This Samantha looks surprisingly like another Samantha that we have featured on this site before.

CatSynth pic: Skinny and Elektron MonoMachine
Submitted by Alessandro Automageddon via our Facebook page.
This is dedication, I only buy new gear so I can take pictures of them with my cats and send them to your blog!
That is indeed quite a commitment! We wish Alessandro and Skinny the best of luck on this, and keep sending us the pics 🙂

Submitted by Jonathan Redman via our Facebook page. He also has an Electronic Instrument Archive that is quite impressive and worth checking out.
“Our Cat Scampi likes to sit by Synths – not on them.”
You can find more info about the Roland JX-3P at the archive.

Weekend Cat Blogging: Luna (Noise Research)
We at CatSynth are always curious about musical contraptions whose names include “Luna”. The latest we have encountered is luna_NT from Luna Noise Research (aka luna_lab).
Of course, I had to coax Luna to pose with it. She was mildly curious (as she is with anything that arrives at CatSynth HQ).
But what does this contraption sound like? I managed to rustle up a 9-volt battery and fire it up. Here is a brief video of what we encountered:
You will have to pardon the bad iPhone videography. But it does give an idea of what the basic functions do. What I can do with it musically remains to be seen.
Weekend Cat Blogging #387 is hosted by Samantha, Clementine and Maverick.
The Carnival of the Cats will be up this Sunday at Mind of Mog.
And the Friday Ark is at the modulator

Moog attitude by Frank Herrgott
From Frank Herrgott on YouTube, via matrixsynth.
I just bought the Moog Voyager (rack version) and was very enthusiastic about the sound. I did this demo to share some of the sonic possibilities of this beast. I use only the sounds of the moog voyager and did use only verbs, Eqs, compressors ans delays as effects. I also mention that it is the first timle that I use Adobe Premiere (video editor), it’s a great soft.Thanks for passing by, see you soon on the net…. and have fun with the Moog Attitude! Frank Herrgott
No cat in this video per se, but our friend ____Lo____ on Twitter suggested that there was a “cat inside” with the rather feline melody of the music.
Yummy ! RT @matrixsynth Moog attitude by Frank Herrgott bit.ly/WnO5Nw cc @catsynth Luna inside ! #Moog Voyager

CatSynth pic: Mimi and Juno 60
From our friends at polynominal.com, Mimi returns once again, with a Juno 60.
At 16, Mimi is a senior cat. But she is still going strong, and has the best synthesizer collection of any cat we know!
