Morgan Geist's Gear
In a video shared by environnyc on YouTube, Morgan Geist demonstrates the use of the Cwejman S1 MK2 by controlling its three oscillators separately, originally created as a private video for Terje.
In a tweet, Morgan Geist references the Linn Electronics LinnDrum, mentioning "all faders down, including the rim shot," indicating his use of this classic drum machine.
quote from Sound on Sound article "The centrepiece of the studio, meanwhile, is a custom Neotek Elan TT 32‑channel console, a recent replacement for a Trident Fleximix 10‑2 that he sold to LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy. “He’s obsessed with those desks and his production sounds great, so I probably made a mistake,” he laughs. “It was only 10 channels and I used it for tracking and mixing but it was like having a stick of butter with every meal. It was too much! It was so old I’d work all afternoon trying to get a bass sound right and I’d lean on the mixer and the whole profile of the sound would change."
In a Sound on Sound article, Morgan Geist discusses using the Roland Juno-106 synthesizer throughout his career.

mentioned in article "or those who, like Morgan Geist, learned to produce electronic music in the pre‑YouTube days, success hinged upon being lucky enough to know someone who could teach you or winging it in the dark with a badly written manual. Without the former, Morgan and Dashan persevered with little success for many years with the latter. It wasn’t until moving to study at Oberlin College, a sister school of the highly regarded Oberlin Institute where Kelley Polar studied, that Morgan’s perseverance caught the attention of Midwest techno legend Dan Curtin. By this time he had amassed a Roland Juno‑106, a broken ARP Axxe, a Kawai Q80, a MIDI‑only version of MOTU’s Performer sequencer, a Boss SE‑50 effects processor, a Boss DR‑660 drum machine and an Alesis ADAT 8‑track digital recorder, which at the time was a revolutionary machine for bedroom producers. “I saved and saved for one. It was so expensive, and now people won’t even use them as doorstops.”
