We just saw Saruman with his Yamaha SK50D, CS30, and DX7. Now we can here them being played. While Héctor Genis plays a classic synth-pop jam with lush cords, Saruman bounces around and supervises, as a cat does.

Fran Halen with Make Noise, Moog, and other modular
Fran Halen is all snuggled and warm on a chilly day. We bet those analog modules from Moog, Make Noise, and others will help keep her warm, too.

Cat and a Cat on a Cat
It looks like our friends over at Triangle Synth Party in North Carolina have some cats on their Octave CAT. A little figuring covers the pulse width knob of VCO 1, and a sticker sits just above F sharp.

Mistie and Yamaha DX7
Mistie poses proudly atop a vintage Yamaha DX7 synthesizer. From Rob Puricelli (Pro Synth Network) via Facebook.
I think I also espy a Yamaha QX3 sequencer just to the left of Mistie.
These 1980s DX-era instruments loom large in my personal synth history, often as aspirational. We do have a couple of TX modules still in use along with our RX5 drum machine here at CatSynth HQ.

Ringo with Roland, Korg, Zoom, Waldorf
Ringo joins us from Brooklyn and shares with us a brief jam on a Roland SP-404SX, Korg TR 61 workstation, Zoom G3 effects box, and Waldorf Blofeld. From our friend Damien Olsen.
You can see a bit of a show that both Damien and I played in Brooklyn back in 2019

Bowzer and Moog Matriarch
Bowzer proudly shows off his Moog Matriarch synthesizer.

I should break the ice with a picture of my cat lounging on a synth…
This seems like a reasonable idea to us at CatSynth.

Saruman with Yamaha SK50D, CS30, and DX7
Our friend Saruman is back, and he is showing off his vintage Yamaha gear. We see a Yamaha SK50D to the left, a CS30 to the upper right, and a DX7 at the bottom. Three different types of instruments from three different periods of Yamaha’s keyboard and synth history.
