Used for xx, as mentioned by mixing engineer Rodiadh McDonald in this June 2011 Sound on Sound article.
"Jamie was there for most of the time but when we'd be recording, he'd stay overnight and work on the beats and things like that,” says Rodaidh. "While we might be doing vocals, he'd be in the meeting room with his laptop, Logic and his MPC, sometimes going through a Boss DD3, a Boss overdrive pedal and a Roland Space Echo RE301, which he used quite a lot. He also used a lot of Logic plug‑ins. We'd use a rough version of the beat for the track but, throughout the recordings and afterwards, he'd take that away and he'd work really hard on making it all sound good and making it work together.”
In the Official Music Video of The xx-Say Something Loving, in 2.01, Pioneer DJ CDJ-2000NXS2 is shown
In this article it states Jamie XX uses the TR 909 from this exerpt :
"Roland : Were there particular aspects of the machine that you’re using, because you’ve used a 909 before live?
Jamie XX : Yeah, we still use that as well. But it was more just like, I guess, a little bit easier to manipulate live and easier to gauge certain levels whereas the 909 is hard."
