Saruman plays the Yamaha SK50D

Saruman decides to contribute to today’s jam with Héctor Genis on the Yamaha SK50D synthesizer. He adds some high harmonies that change the overall quality of the music.

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).

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 😺
