Duncan MacKay's Keyboards and Synthesizers
Mentioned in an interview on page 34 of the July 1979 issue of Beat Instrumental.
Whatever it was, he's now a full-time member of 10CC, and the heart of all his gear is a Hammond B3.
"I've got a graphic equaliser built in which gives a punch to the sound," said Duncan.
He's got the equaliser built in at a stage where the Hammond will sound raunchy at any level.

For a quieter sound, and for a string and choral sound, he uses a Polymoog.

And then there's his Yamaha CS80 synthesiser. The Yamaha CS80 has only six memory banks but Duncan has had it altered to take another four.
"There's this guy down at Yamaha called Dusty Miller that did it."
He has high praise indeed for the Yamaha, saying that he used to have six ARPs on stage but now he's got the Yamaha he doesn't bother anymore.

Sticking with Yamaha a bit longer, he also plays one of their electric grands, the CP70B, with a Roland digital chorus plugged in for a honky tonk sound. Under all this he has a set of Moog Taurus bass pedals.
