The lovely Chihiro poses with a Novation AFX Station and plays it, too. From our friend Erik Ribeiro (@eriksuperlazy on Instagram).
Chihiro decided to join me in celebrating International Synthesizer Day by playing glissando with her face on the AFX Station. She also worked the pitch & mod wheels. 😹🎹




We already knew George loves his Casio keyboard. But he is a cat, so he also loves treats.
In addition to performing on the keyboard, George shows us his “high-five” and “honey bear” tricks. We at CatSynth refer to the honey-bear as prairie-dogging 😺

Another Blue Marvin sighting! This time with a cat who “wants to be a Psytrance Producer” 😺🎛️
It’s so cute how he paws at the synth.

Pepper loves the new rack, I think she wants me to leave space on top for her to chill. She is such a great studio cat.
We at CatSynth agree that one should make space for cats in the studio.


Fritzie is back helping out in the studio. We see two monitors behind him with a Logic session, a Behringer X-Touch One, a Behringer Edge percussion synth, an Arturia MicroFreak directly below him, a Modal Electronics Argon, and more.

Chihiro enjoys rubbing up against the modular in this adorable video. She seems to particularly like the Happy Nerding modules and a MOK Waverazor. I also noticed the Behringer vocoder module, the Piston Honda from Industrial Music Electronics, and more.
From our friend Erik Ribeiro (@ericsuperlazy on Instagram), who notes that Chihiro was probably most taken with the case itself, a Dopfer Low Cost LC with its vinyl-like siding.


Juanita stands proudly atop a Behringer Blue Marvin, a tribute to the early “Blue Marvin” version of the ARP 2600. Plus, the Star Wars poster makes her photo purrfect for today, May the 4th!

I got the opportunity to see a rare actual ARP 2600 Blue Meanie at NAMM this year, courtesy of the Alan R Pearlman Foundation.



Juanita plays in front of a large and impressive Eurorack modular system.
