Torbjørn: "The key was the Akai sampler, a really simple mixer.." Svein: "..The S1000, and S3200 I guess."

At 5:08 Svein says: "And if you wanna go really trainspotting, the track called "So Easy", the opening track of Melody A.M. has been made on an atari computer." DJ Mag shows a picture of the 520ST, hence why I submitted it.

at 0:38 you can see that royksopp use an Akai MPD 32

you can see multiple Novation 61SL MkII keyboards in this photo

in this interview it's mentioned that the RE-201 is part of royksopps setup

you can see Svein drumming on an Octapad Pad-8 and Pad-80 thoughout this video (8 is the right one from Svein and 80 the left one the way the back is laid out gives it away)

"we’re a dying breed, but we use PCs in terms of audio editing and prefer to use Steinberg’s WaveLab because it has a very nice audio montage feature. That is one of the main components of our production, how we layer the sounds"

in this interview it's stated that royksopp works at times using Cubase (Cubase SX3 is the latest version when this interview was held)

it's mentioned here that royksopp uses this software to make their music

Most Röyskopp fans already know this one. The MS-20 is used on a very large percentage of their songs. It appear throughout the whole video.

It appears on Röyksopp's Junior album cover. Has a very recognizable sound, can be heard on multiple Röyksopp tracks.

Korg MS-2000 is used in the proof video, during a live concert.

A Roland RS-505 appears on this concert.

In an interview, when asked, "Do you tend to upgrade your software and hardware regularly?" Röyksopp answers:

"There is a hunt [for new gear] but we already have quite a lot of synthesisers and so on. It’s always fun to get something new, although we have a few favourites that we always turn to – because we have bought things in the past that we don’t really use that often. We don’t use the Moog that often, but a few of the synths that have always been there - and I guess always will be - are the very versatile Roland Juno-106 and the Korg MS-20; also good for creating effects - even bass lines."

"It would seem to be a kind of love letter to each other, I suggest. Sidestepping my sentimental musing, however, they are more interested in talking about the Roland Analogue VP 330, the vocoder which they used to process their vocals. "

Norwegian EDM duo Röyksopp features a lesser-known ARP Odyssey clone from the late 70s: Octave's 37-key, polyphonic (2-voice) "The Cat," first seen played by RYXP 9000 at 0:48 in their 2016 retro-funk hit "Never Ever" with Susanne Sundfør.

While only the upper part of the "Octave" wordmark is visible on the backplate, it is easily identifiable by the placement of the Transient Generator slider group in the upper left corner, the Pitch and Glide controllers in the lower left, and the VCO1 (five knobs), VCO2 (three knobs), and VCF (three knobs) groups arranged from left-to-right. The Main Power switch resides in the upper right corner, with Bypass, VCA (Volume), and the master Noise Level slider consecutively grouped below.

through out this video you can see Röyksopp using multiple Roland XP-30 Synthesizers.

you can see on Torbjorns right a Korg Microkorg set up (clearest view around 1:40)

in this live footage you can see the Korg Triton appear multiple times (the way the buttons are layed out and shape can't make it a trinity)

in this live footage you see a Moog synth next to Svein, based on shape and button layout it's a minimoog and you can see a small screen at times proving it's a Voyager.

in this picture you can see Torbjorn with a Roland XP-50.

at the right you see a Clavia Nord Lead (based on the wooden button at the bottom and the thin modwheel) it's the Clavia Nord Lead 4 based on the button lay out and position of the small LCD screen.

in this performance at 2:06 you see Svein with a synth on his lap. based on the design of the synth, the fact you can see sliders as control and the big knob at the left bottom it is very safe to conclude that the synth he plays here is an Arp Odyssey. based on the very dark design it can be concluded that it is the Mark 2 he plays.

at 1:54 you have a brief moment that light shines on the synth on the dashboard revealing it's design which turns out to be exactly like a Roland SH-101.
