Posing elegantly with a bass and amp.
And here is Gracie’s room full of bass guitars (and a few regular guitars, too).
Grady plays us a drone on the Yamaha DX11 FM synthesizer. From Doug Llewellyn (@doug_whoever) on Instagram.
The DX11 is essentially a version of the Yamaha TX81Z with a keyboard. It is a four-operator FM synthesizer with the added ability to switch waveforms on each operator (something the 6-operator synths like the DX7 didn’t have).
You can see Grady’s many other appearances on CatSynth via his tag.
A performance by Simon Gray (The Winterval Conspiracy) with an Artinoise re.corder, a BTLE MIDI recorder controller. But the real star is Peter the cat.
Our pal Grady is back, this time with a different synth: an Ensoniq SQ-80. He also has an Electro-Harmonix 8 Step sequencer pedal.

Suzy returns to CatSynth. She sits comfortably atop an Ensoniq ESQ-8, which is sporting a much-needed dust cover. Above her is a Roland JP-8000.

Pinki shows off a cool Analog Systems modular, with not one but two Oberkorn 16-step sequencers. There are several other Eurorack modules from other manufacturers on the lower level, which we shall leave as an exercise to the reader.

Oreo returns! This time, he is showing off a Gakken SX-150 MkII synthesizer. Submitted by John Weiner via our Facebook page.
The Gakken SX-150 is a tiny analog synthesizer, sharing some elements with both the Stylophone and Korg Monotron series. It has a solid feature set for such a small instrument, including multiple LFO shapes, independent controls for filter cutoff and resonance, envelopes, and buttons to automatically sweep the filter. Like the stylophone, the stylus is the main pitch control. A purrfectly cat-sized instrument, though the stylus must be a bit challenging for paws.
