Spotted on Kavinsky's Insta stories: OB-X, Juno 6 and of course the DX7

This video, from Old Grey Whistle Test, 1980; Richard can be seen playing the OB-X at 1:35 into the video.

"We get hardware mainly from America and Japan and the instruments are adapted by our engineers to our specifications. I have a number of keyboards including the OB-X, PPG Wave Computer 1 & 2, various Arp equipment, and four custom built sequencers made in Germany. I also play guitar and I use various instruments including Fender and Gibson. I don't really need to use guitar synthesisers as we have the keyboards. I like to work with the Roland MC-8 Micro Composer and TR808 drum machine. These are some of the instruments I use regularly, although we do have links with most of the synthesiser producing companies who supply us with new equipment from time to time."

"The best string sound is a composite one. We'll use a sound from the OBX, then combine it with the Prophet 5 and the DX7. No one company makes a perfect programme. I prefer real people, but the synthesisers can definitely do things that real people can't. We can smooth out a string section. We'll take a string section with 12 strings, and put our MIDI'd-together string sound and we can pump that out to sound like 28 strings. The Mishima soundtrack is a good example. That's a small section, maybe 18 strings, but you listen to it, it's gorgeous."

In this Instagram post, we can see conclude that Jimmy plays and is using the Oberheim OB-X on a Metric record. The post states "Do not attempt to come between this man and his Obie".

Youth professes an affection for analogue keyboards and a strong dislike of FM synthesis. "I don't like modern keyboards too much. I leave them to jingle writers. Those modern sounds are so associative of those advertising images that I prefer to stay well away from them. But of course they end up using your music anyway [laughs]." The only modern keyboard which has his approval is the Roland JD800, because of its "analogue versatility. It's hands-on, direct communication with the machine, rather than numerical, mathematical communication. You can change the sounds very quickly. One of the most important things with equipment is how much time they take to use and program." Hence the presence of keyboards like Alpha Juno 2, Juno 106, Oberheim OB-X (MIDI), SH101 + MCV, Korg MS1, Proteus, Proteus World, plus of course the JD800 in the main studio in the basement. There are also the well tested TR808 and 909, plus Akais S1000 and S1100.

Albums which use OBERHEIM OB-X : • Magnetic fields > Les Chants Magnétiques / Magnetic Fields Part 1

According to the "equipment list" found on Church Studios, owned by Epworth, one of the things listed is the Oberheim OB-X synth.

In this early Killing Joke live concert Jaz is playing an Oberheim OB-X synth. Though Jaz has been the main keyboardist of Killing Joke through their whole career, Jaz only played keyboards live in the early years, from 81 to 84, then Dave Kovacevic started to play the keyboards parts live, so Jaz can focus on the singing and being the frontman. If you watch other live videos from those years, he's playing the same synth, so this should have been his main synth both live and in studio in those years (I'm pretty sure he used it also in 85' 'Night Time').

Dennis DeYoung of Styx owned and used "a couple" of Oberheim OB-X synthesizers starting with the album Pieces of Eight.
