"Keyboards? I can't play them either. On the new LP we've been using an Emulator a bit, and a DX7. We've used Mellotron quite a bit, for example on the 'Sunburst' 12in: it belongs to the studio we use in Edinburgh, Palladium, the guy that runs it has loads of instruments. Some of those older instruments just have so much character about them."

Robin Guthrie's use of the E-Mu Emulator I is confirmed in an article from One Two Testing (November 1984), titled "Coctale." Guthrie discusses the keyboard, noting, "The Emulator we were using was MIDI'd," which suggests that the original Emulator used was the midiless Emulator I, later upgraded to include MIDI functionality.
