"We use an API 1608 desk, various compressors like the Universal Audio 1176s and the blue DBX 160 series. I still prefer my old Lexicon 480L to the digital plug-ins. The latest version of Pro Tools is great to have, because it is very easy to combine all the old gear with that. In ATR, we use the Roland TR-909 as the main drum machine; it’s part of the band’s sound, really. Then we still use the old Akais for ATR, like the S1100 or the S6000 or the MPC 2000XL. They are also part of the band’s identity in a way. Especially when you apply distortion. We also have a lot of modular synths, from the Metasonix Wretchmachine, the ARP 2600, Analogue Solutions Vostok, the Sherman Quad Filterbank and the Moog Voyager with all the external CV gate stuff. We find the Voyager better suited for ATR. My Minimoog just sounds too retro. I love the machine, as so many others (my Korg Trident, Roland Jupiter 8 etc...) but ATR has a certain sound that we stick to. I use all that other stuff more for the Alec Empire solo works. The Atari 1040ST is still the main sequencer for everything. Pro Tools is slaved to that."

This was my first modular gear. I think half the reason I bought it was because I thought it was cool that it had a pin matrix and it closed up like a suitcase. For the first few years, it was pretty frustrating—I'd usually spend a long time trying to remember how to get it to make sound, do one (usually noisy) overdub, and then put it away for a few months. It's embarrassing how long it took me to start getting my head around the way the modular stuff works, but this was a great introductory piece to learn on. It's got all the basic modules you need built into one unit: three oscillators, two LFOs, two envelopes, a filter, sequencer, VCA, ring modulator… I've since expanded my modular set-up quite a bit, but the Vostok still integrates in really well and gets used regularly.
