Front 242

In 80s footage of a live Front 242 performance appearing in the Belpop TV program about the band you can clearly see Patrick performing on an Emulator II.

Speaking @ Red Bull Music Academy in Barcelona, 2008 session, band member Patrick Codenys stated:

So, basically, we did almost one album per technology. You could say the first album was analog, second one was analog but another development, third album was DX7, algorithm, first digital, and each time we were starting an album it was basically partly the instruments who were trying to tell us what expression, what aesthetic we could try to find in that machine.

Commodore 128 with Steinberg Pro 16 used in 1986, can be seen 6:25 into this video.

Per this May 04, 2021 feature from gearnews.de:

The drum sound is now the quite hard sound of the E-Mu drumulator, which leads bone-dry through the No Comment tracks.

Per the liner notes of Front 242's 2003 album Pulse:

Some of the tools used: Clavia Nordlead 2, NordModular, Ddrum4, Korg Z1, Lassence Ventury II, Roland System 100, Vdrum, JD990, Yamaha VL1, Sherman filterbank, Roland Rss, Line 6 EchoPro, Ableton live and Mac computers

Front242 lists the Korg R3 on their official website as part of their live performance equipment.

Front 242 used a Commodore Amiga 2500 in their graphic studio setup, as detailed in a 1991 special issue of "Rock This Town," referenced in the Front 242 FAQ on Herrebout.

In an undated interview with Steelberry Clones, Daniel B. of Front 242 discussed his progression through music technology. Paraphrasing/translating for Daniel, the interviewer wrote:

Personally Daniel did not want to learn any instrument, although started as a drummer, so he ventured into the field of synthesizers. actually his first synthesizer was a Roland System 101 back in the 70’s. Things like the Fairlight was far too expensive, but the fact that Daniel got a job in a music shop allowed him to explore a lot of the new gear that came about, e.g. the Roland MC4 Micro Composer. (The MC-4 MicroComposer was an early microprocessor-based music sequencer released by the Roland Corporation. It could be programmed using the ten key numeric keyboard or a synthesizer keyboard using the keyboards control voltage and gate outputs.) So in summary Daniel says that his biggest influence was through the love of machines.

On their official site, Front242 lists the V-Synth amongst their live performance equipment.

NOTE: the article lists two Akai "S9000" samplers, but Akai has never used this model number for any product at any point in its history. Akai DID make the very-popular S900 sampler in this timeframe, so the extra zero has to be a typo.

Centrally on the geography album are synthesizers such as Roland's System 100 and 100m, Yamaha's CS synthesizer (CS-40M, CS-15). The "Operating Tracks" bass from the Moog Source can also be heard.

In an undated interview for Steelberry Clones, Daniel B. of Front 242 stated:

In principal Daniel loves everything analog and in general none is better then the other – “it all boils down to what you need and what you have set out to accomplish”. When we ask again he does mention the Moog Voyager and the Virus, as well as the Oberheim. “Favorites change from song to song”, Daniel says. For example if Daniel wants to make use of a synth bass, he would never go for a KORG C1, but mostly he will end up in a fairly mixed environment – the difference always sits in the details.

In an undated interview with Steelberry Clones, Daniel B. of Front 242 states:

On the Nothing But Noise album we have a very standard set up and in the center sits a Octopus sequencer, which from my perspective is more of an instrument then a controller. It has its roots in the analog world.
