In this video, Andy Summers can be seen with a Prophet-5 synthesizer onstage, dabbling with it a little on "Walking On The Moon" (at the 8:31 mark). He used it throughout the Summer 1982 leg of the Ghost In The Machine tour.
In Guitar Player September 1982 issue, Andy discusses the mini solo in "Spirits In The Material World":
"Actually , that is just a guitar played up very high and plucked dry - you know, the palm on the string. I blended this with the setting on the Prophet-5 keyboard synthesizer to get that kind of sound."
(note: the music video shows Sting fiddling with a Minimoog instead, so whatever's seen in videos doesn't always represent what's on the song exactly)
