Marcus Vere, the keyboardist for Living in a Box, uses the Yamaha TX816 as part of his music gear, as detailed in "Music Technology" magazine, August 1987: "Vere's hardware rundown for the album reads like just about any modern equipment listing - Emulator, Super Jupiter, DX7, TX816, Akai S900 and so on - but stops short of Fairlight or Synclavier indulgence. Technology has been a good and loyal friend of Living in a Box, but Vere is cautious about letting it get the upper hand."

An overdue addition to Vere's equipment is an E-mu Systems Emax.

"We never got into too much serious sampling on the album, so I bought the Emax to investigate that. I've also got the Emax with HD organised - that's coming out in about two or three months. Plus there's the Compact Disc (CD ROM) sound-loading situation coming out about three or four months after that."
