At the 0:20 mark on this 2017 video, while DMX Krew speaks about a Digital Delay pedal, in the back it can be spotted what appears to be an Analogue Systems RS-165 Signal Mixer.
This is a four-channel (!) MIDI sequencer with one MIDI in and two MIDI outs. People laugh when they see it but it was the bees knees in 1986 (Go West had two and so did Michael Jackson) and I've been using it so long that I can really work fast on it. My fingers go all blurry when I am quantising etc. It works, the timing is really solid, better than a computer, the small screen is crap but I like it. I bought it out of Loot in the early 90s and went round the guy's house in New Cross to pick it up, we ended up making a piano-rave track together which I've still got somewhere on tape. You don't get that with eBay!

In this recorded podcast uploaded to youtube, Ed Upton of DMX Krew talks through the process of making a track using his studio equipment. He starts to talk about the Roland MKS-80 at 25:16.
"This is a synth called a Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter - which is a rack mount from their very famous Jupiter range of synths. It sounds a little bit like a Jupiter 8 and a little bit like a Jupiter 6, but not exactly like either of them. It's got quite an aggressive, almost digital sound for an analogue synth. And er, It's the only polyphonic analogue synth I own, which means it's the only one you can play chords on. I've got digital stuff you can play chords on, but this is the only old school analogue job. And I feel like making some kind of thin sawtooth sound to play some chords on, so let's have a little play. I've got a programmer attached to it, which is also made by Roland, which let's you programme it very simply using sliders."
