In this Roland Users Group article, the Hartnoll brothers are asked about "What Roland gear made it onto The Blue Album?" They reply, "God almighty. The 303, the 808, the 909, the Jupiter-6, the SH-09, which is still a personal favorite of mine... The Jupiter-6 has also been a favorite. It was semi-customized with two outputs before I bought it. That synth was our workhorse. All of our early albums just thrived on the Jupiter-6. I remember doing things for TV, and people would come up and try to put gaffer tape over the logo. I’d say, ‘What are you doing?’ I can honestly say that I’m not the kind of person who likes to display corporate logos and things like that, but I’ve always felt quite proud of the word Roland across my gear."
