Tuna and Yamaha DX100
Tuna returns with his Yamaha DX100 (because it is clearly his).
Submitted by @thedigitalpurrgatory via Threads.
It’s Friday the 13th but not a bad luck with this adorable cat.
This is Tuna, btw.
That’s a Yamaha DX100 that he uses as his chair or bed.
And that’s a mini-blep if you look closely. -
Shiro and Saruman, Yamaha SK50D, Strymon Timeline
A very sweet photo featuring both Shiro and Saruman atop the Yamaha SK50D and to either side of the Strymon Timeline! I love how they seem so friendly with each other (unlike Sam Sam and Big Merp who are more like frenemies).

Tuna and Sora and Yamaha DX100
Tuna sits on a Yamaha DX100 synthesizer, and Sora sits nearby. According to @thedigitalpurrgatory on Threads, they are looking at an orange stray cat that showed up in their home.
Perhaps this mysterious orange visitor will show up in a future CatSynth pic…

Parches, Roland TR-707, and Space Echo
Parches poses with a vintage Roland TR-707 drum machine and a Space Echo RE-200. The 200 is a much rarer version than the popular RE-201 Space Echo. It has most of the same features, but a different look and feel.

Ansel and rack-mount synths
Ansel is showing off an absolutely insane (in the good sense of the word) tower of vintage rack-mount synthesizers. From top to bottom, we see:
- Novation Supernova Rack
- E-MU Audity 2000
- Casio VZ-10M
- Yamaha TX-802
- Yamaha TG77
- Roland SC-880
- Oberheim Matrix 1000 (x2)
Below the rack and just above Ansel we see a Sequentix Cirklon sequencer.
All in all, quite impressive – we at CatSynth are a bit envious 😺

Lucy and Optigan
Lucy sits with her back to us – as cats are wont to do – on top of a covered EMS VCS3 Putney and a rare vintage Optigan. Submitted by Hamstall Ridware via BlueSky.
The Optigan was an electronic organ that featured playback of chords, drums, riffs, and other patterns via optical plastic-film discs. In some ways, it was analogous to the magnetic tape playback in a Mellotron, but it was more for backing elements rather than as the main timbral source (although one could certainly create discs to use it that way).
The vintage portable radio is a nice touch, too.
