Surgeon's Synthesizers
Surgeon uses the SH-01A in what he calls his 'more abstract' (non-techno) live projects, like Anthony Child live and his part in The Transcendence Orchestra.
Currently this Soma Lyra-8 synth is quite important. [...] I'm using it along with the baby version of the Roland SH-101, which does arpeggiated melodies. Right now the melodies are stored into the sequencer's memory but if I have space I'll take an Arturia KeyStep for playing parts in live. Both the Lyra-8 and the the Roland are fed into this Electro-Harmonix 45000 looper, which takes either four mono or two stereo loops. Given the steady development of these performances, it's quite effective to layer sounds up into the looper and let them slowly decay as you build in new ideas. It's like this constantly evolving story that you get drawn into. [... The looper is] vital, it's the centre of this setup really. Whatever else I was using with it, I've always used this looper. With this one I can clock the arpeggiator of the SH-01A so it seamlessly overlaps. I don't really need it when I play with Paddy and Dan but it's essential when I'm on my own.
'The Art Of Production: Surgeon', Resident Advisor, October 2019
In an accompanying video (0:12) he demonstrates and describes his approach:
It works a lot with the tension and release between the more melodic element, which is the SH-01A [and] the more chaotic and noisy elements of the Lyra-8, which is a synthesizer that I'm a big fan of.

In this youtube video you can see the Norand Mono on the far right side of the table. Surgeon briefly talks about it at 11:10.
