Winston and Korg NTS-1

A beautifully composed photo of Winston playing a Korg NTS-1 Nu: Tekt kit. Submitted by Ryan Garner via our Facebook page.

The NTS-1 is an interesting little device. It has the same oscillator/DSP system as the Minilogue XD and Prologue, and allows one to create new oscillators and effects for any of these three devices. We have one here at CatSynth HQ.

Rimuru, ASM Hydrasynth, Korg Minilogue XD, Prophet 08

Tabby cat with tiger stripes sitting on a synthesizer.  Above him are an ASM Hydrasynth, Korg Minilogue XD, Prophet 08, and more.

Rimuru has grown quite a bit since he last appeared on CatSynth as a tiny kitten. Here he is as a handsome fellow posing confidently with the same ASM Hydrasynth and Prophet 08, now joined by a Korg Minilogue XD. I also think that’s the same Roland Fantom that he posed on last time. We also see a cool-looking Eurorack system to the left, but we’ll leave identification of the modules as an exercise to the reader.

Mr. Puff: Oberheim Matrix 10, Novation Supernova ASM

Mr. Puff sits comfortably on top of a console next to two Oberheim 1000 synthesizers, a Roland rackmount line mixer, and a Novation Supernova ASM synthesizer.

Mr. Puff is one of the many cats living with our friend Charles Whiley in Arkansas. He does have some physical challenges, but as we can see, he is living his best “synth cat” life 😻
