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.

Mistie, Arturia MatrixBrute, and new Synth Shelf
Mistie has grabbed a high spot on the new “synth shelf”. In front, we see an Arturia MatrixBrute (Noir edition).

Tuna and Yamaha DX100
Tuna returns with his Yamaha DX100 (because it is clearly his).

It’s Friday the 13th but not a bad luck with this adorable cat.
This is Tuna, btw.
That’s a Yamaha DX100 that he uses as his chair or bed.
And that’s a mini-blep if you look closely.
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 😺

New synth jam with Saruman and Yamaha DX7
Our friend Hector Génis is back with a new synth jam, this time on the Yamaha DX7. We also see a Yamaha CS30 synthesizer and the Strymon Timeline delay pedal. Watch as Saruman pops up later in the video. He is really enjoying the music, as am I. It has a sort of Italo-disco feel.
Mr. Puff and Yamaha PSS-470
Mr. Puff demonstrates unequivocally who owns this Yamaha PSS-470. From our friend Charles Whiley via Facebook.
The PSS-470 is interesting in that it incorporates Yamaha’s FM engine – with a few real-time parameters – into the case and design of a home keyboard. Of course, it also includes the typical features like a drum/rhythm engine with the obligatory “Bossa Nova” beat among others.
