At 1:53, SOPHIE is seen with a Komplete Kontrol S49 in her home studio.

Can be seen at 1:55 timestamp to the left of the studio monitor speakers.

At 3:32 onward of this old Motherland performance, you can see SOPHIE playing the keyboard with a few different grooveboxes atop. Besides the monomachine and machinedrum, you can see she's playing a Creamware Minimax ASB.

The exact model of Machinedrum is not clear.

At 1:53, SOPHIE uses Serum in Ableton and discusses software synthesizers.

Well, you have the possibily with electronic music to generate any texture in theory and any sound. So why would any musician want to limit themselves? You want to work with the most powerful tools you can work with, and in the past that may have been a piano or a guitar, but now I think the power of software synthesizers is something that all musicians I would think would want to harness.

Can be seen on the left side of the screen at 1:54 timestamp.

She talks about her use of the Pioneer CDJ's in this interview with Daniel Sterner for Elektronauts:

Please explain the beauty of CDJ and how they compare to the SL-1200! Well I can just turn up with a USB stick with every version of everything I've ever made on and feel fairly confident that the equipment will work as planned. Also you have the ability to use it like a sampler. Just trigger different bits of audio. It feels quite robust and light weight and easy to update with new material. Also I have my USB sticks attached to my clothes so they can't really go missing. In theory. Well that and the fact that vinyl doesn't sound as good!

Elektron: What synth or other piece of equipment is your bread-and-butter staple?

SOPHIE: I'm on a low carb diet. It's literally just Monomachine and software right now.
