In this Interview at around 0:42 Finneas talks about how he either used a Prophet X or a M-Audio Venom for his song How It Ends on his album Optimist and he said that he's confident that it was the M-Audio Venom. He also said he got it off of eBay for a nominal amount of money

FINNEAS uses JH Audio Custom Roxanne in-ear monitors, as indicated by the Claudia artwork on his faceplate. Given that JH Audio confirmed Billie Eilish uses the same model, it's likely that FINNEAS, her brother and collaborator, also relies on this high-quality gear.
At the 0:32 mark of the Apple Music interview by Zane Lowe with Billie Eilish and FINNEAS, the Hologram Electronics Microcosm can be seen on FINNEAS's desk behind him.

Taylor gave FINNEAS one of the first completed GTe Urban Ash guitars, as related and featured in this article from Taylor’s Wood & Steel 2021, Issue 1.
As we readied the launch of the new GT body shape, we knew he should be among the first wave of artists to test-drive it. We were thrilled to get one of the first completed GTe Urban Ash guitars into the hands of a busy working musician, and happy to hear that it had become a staple his musical toolbox.

** What makes a guitar like the Taylor GT useful for a musician like you?**
It’s just a great guitar. It makes my job a whole lot easier.
** How does playing the GT compare to playing your full-size custom white Taylor Grand Pacific?**
I love the portability of it. I don’t like instruments to be in the way — I like them to be as easy to bring with me anywhere as possible. And the sound on this one doesn’t suffer at all because of its size.
In the YouTube video titled "FINNEAS - I'm in Love Without You (Live at The Troubadour)," FINNEAS can be seen using the Akai MPK249 MIDI Keyboard Controller during his performance. He also utilizes this MIDI keyboard for his performances with Billie Eilish, particularly throughout 2019.
In a video by Fender, FINNEAS discusses his use of the Fender Finneas Signature Acoustasonic Player Telecaster, describing it as the most versatile guitar he has ever played. He appreciates its ability to produce both acoustic and electric guitar sounds and highlights the built-in chorus effect that adds depth and dimension to his sound. Furthermore, he mentions that the guitar is very comfortable to play and has a great sound, making it suitable for a variety of musical styles.
This information is confirmed by the YouTube video by Fender titled "In Conversation with FINNEAS | Artist Signature Series | Fender."
In the production of the song "CHIHIRO" from their album "HIT ME HARD AND SOFT," FINNEAS used the Korg MiniKorg-700s, as evidenced by production videos released on Billie Eilish’s TikTok in April 2023.
