"First keyboard was a Moog Multimoog, analog synth, pre MIDI. I got it about 1982 and still have it. I had a Roland TR-808 before that and Pollard Syndrums, so it wasn’t my first piece of gear."

"I mainly use Logic synced to the room and all clocks, I also like Renoise sometimes. I use an Apple Macintosh, though most of our earliest Skinny Puppy stuff etc., up until the new albums, we used an Atari 1040 ST with Steinberg Pro 24 sequencer, very primitive!"

"Basically everything we’ve used we practically still have here. So it’s a list too long to go into. There is a wall alone that is the orginal setup of Skinny Puppy, based around a pair of Roland TR-808’s, Roland TR-909 with trigs going to many differnat devices including Sequential Circuits Pro One, Roland System 100m, ElectroComp Eml 101, Korg SQ-10, Korg MS-20, Korg MS-10, ARP 2500 and ARP 2600."
