Paul is playing a Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S88, as seen at 0:28.

"We've had it updated to a Series IIX, says Humphreys. "That's been really helpful because, although the sampling on the Fairlight isn't too hot, it's a fantastic writing tool. Now we can get really crisp samples by MIDIing it to the Emulator. We still use it a lot, but there are still certain things, like sampling voices, that it can't handle."

In this video, Paul Humphreys is playing a Roland SH-09.

"Andy and myself also ended up with a Mellotron each, and I've kept an Emulator IIX, which is good for grungy loops. "We can achieve very good production quality with this set-up just through being very careful. We learned a lot with OMD from engineers like Tom Lord Alge and Steve Hague, so we can use the facilities we have to the out most. We've got good outboard effects like Lexicon reverbs and Urei compressors, and decent speakers like Yamaha NS10s and NS40s. Now I'm getting into the Yamaha ProMix 01 automated mixer, which is great because you can reset it so quickly. It allow you to get some perspective on a song then return to it easily."

"We don't always work together. Sometimes I come over from the US with some ideas on cassette, created on a Macintosh Quadra 840 running Studio Vision. That's great because you can compose on it and run audio alongside - it has four audio tracks but only two outputs, which are demo quality. So there's some MIDI on the album, but also a lot of live playing which is added afterwards."
