"I've got a Roland D110 which I never use because it's such a pain to operate. It's a multi-function button nightmare, that machine, so it just sits there dormant in the rack."

From a 1993 interview with Sound on Sound: "My setup is quite limited and pretty much the same as I had for Sugar Tax, except that complimenting the small Casio, D50 and M1 I'm using a lot more of the Jupiter 6, Jupiter 8, Moog and JD800. The JD's great but I can't be bothered to learn how to edit properly on it."

English Electric’ uses the following instrumentation… Paul Humphreys: Synth-Werk, ARP 2600, M Tron Pro, Trillion, Omnisphere, Oberheim SEM V, Morphoder, Jupiter 8V2, Minimoog V, Prophet Pro 53, Massive, Vacuum, Boom Andy McCluskey: Vacuum, Indigo Virus, M Tron Pro, Jupiter 8, Vox Machina

"The rest of the system is quite limited really. There's an S1000, M1 - the Sugar Tax album is the M1. Every single pad, I think is M1. Not just M1, but program 07, 'Symphonic' and program 27 which is one of the choral patches. Those two dominate the album."

"The rest of the stuff I've used is bits and pieces. There's a little Casio CZ230S - it's a lovely little machine but you can't edit on it unless you hook up a computer to it. I wish you could edit on it, actually, because it's got some lovely sounds. The cheesy organ solo in the middle of 'Sailing on the Seven Seas' was done on that. It's also got one of those features where, if you don't send a MIDI signal through it for five minutes or something, it switches itself off. If you've got it in a chain you can find yourself thinking 'something's missing...' And you find the Casio's gone off and taken everything that was in the chain out with it."

"The SP12 is like a pile of AMSs, but with a built-in sequencer as well. We got fed up with the sounds in the LinnDrum years ago - even the new chips we got for it. In the end we never had access to the AMS in the demo studio because we were running bloody drum samples triggered off the LinnDrum. We don't have that problem now."
