From our friend and CatSynth TV superfan I Love Cats and Synths, we have a video featuring the beautiful Bella!
I was playing with the Matriarch arpeggiator when Bella stepped on the TEO-5 sequencer button and started it playing a preset sequence which actually went well with what I had going already. I added another arp from the Take 5 to round it out. My kitty is creative!

Submitted by Simon Beck, who adds:
Spike is a 13-year-old-ish British Domestic Shorthair, though he prefers to be referred to as a Tuxedo Cat. He is often found playing his Valente electric reed piano, a Wurlitzer-like electromechanical instrument, hand-made in Brazil in 2022. Spike lives in Croydon, England with his humans, Simon and Karen, and their two adult offspring.
I am an electric piano player and aficionado, but I was unfamiliar with the Valente piano until now. I appreciate Simon and Spike introducing me to it.

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.
Satchel is excited about his setup which includes an Elektron Analog Rytm, a Behringer 305 module, a Qu-Bit Prism, and several other modules all housed in an Arturia RackBrute case.

We’ve featured this same cat and synth before, back in 2019. You can see them here.
