Bread gets ready to play some chords on the Novation Bass Station 2. From thedigitalpurrgatory on Instagram.
Synthcat or Catsynth?
This is indeed a vexing question that we at CatSynth often ponder.

Albert with Korg Electribe, Roland SH-101, Elektron Digitone, more
Albert has found a nice sunny spot in the studio. We see a Roland SH-101, Korg Eletribe, and Elektron Digitone next to him. It appears that he is sitting on a Roland TB-303 (or similar) with a dark panel, and another rhythm machine.

Shiro and Casio SK-8
We have a couple of beautiful model shots of Shiro with his Casio SK-8
From Héctor D. Genis (@hdgenis)
Shiro feliz con su Casio SK8 creando acordes para nuevas rolitas.
My best effort as translation:
“A happy Shiro with his Casio SK-8 creating chords for new songs”
The Casio SK-8 is one of the rarer members of the SK series. It has similar ROM sounds and rhythms, and a lo-fi sampler. It also has some drum pads, which are a nice touch. It would seem to have been geared toward the educational market, as it has LEDs that light up above the keys. More details can be found here.

Shiro, Yamaha YC20, Roland TR707 and JX8P, more
Shiro Poses adorably atop the red Yamaha YC20 organ. We also see two Casio SK-1s, a Roland JX-8P, and a Roland TR-707 drum machine.
From Héctor Genis (@hdgenis) on Twtitter.
If Shiro’s collection of instruments looks familiar, you would be correct. It is the same set that Saruman posed on last week. Siblings Shiro and Saruman live in Mexico City with their human.

Our pal Jazzy from Eevolute Music and Technology in the Netherlands is back; he has found that this Moog bag is a nice cozy place to sit and relax.

Big Merp, Yamaha RX5, Modular
Today we have CatSynth pics with our very own Big Merp, who loves to jump up on the desk. Here we see him with our Yamaha RX5 drum machine and our massive modular system. The Metasonix modules are easy to spot, as are the Make Noise modules. We also have MOTM, Rossum Electro-music, Sputnik modular, 4MS, Malekko, Folktek, Mordax, and more as we get into the second grouping in the distance. We also see a bit of the Arturia MiniBrute 2 and Moog Mother-32. A fuller accounting can be found in the tags.

Nicolai, Korg Microsampler, Alesis Drums and Compressor
Nicholai sits comfortably in front of a Korg Microsampler and Alesis drum machine and compressor. He also happens to be the brother of Hookah the Cat, whom we have featured many times here on CatSynth.
From Darren Douglas Danahy via Facebook.
Hookah the Cat is always getting on the CatSynth page for playing on my keyboards… Nicolai however, likes to hang out on the other side of the room by the Alesis drums & compressor along with the Korg microsampler, Kustom guitar amp, and Roland guitar synth. He actually likes to take the drumsticks from the area and play with them.
Sounds like Nicolai is becoming quite the drummer in his own way 😹

Saruman, Roland JX-8P, TR-707, Yamaha YC-20
Our friend Saruman from Mexico City has a nice stack of keyboards today: a Roland JX-8P (with a TR-707 drum machine on top), a Yamaha YC-20 combo organ below with its beautiful red finish; Saruman seems particularly interested in the small keyboard in the middle, which I’m thinking is actually two Casio SK-1s…
