Nick has used the following gear: Wasp, Roland Juno 6 (I believe,) Crumar Performer - until Rio Roland Juno 6, Crumar Performer, Jupiter 8, and SC Prophet 5 with some drums from a LinnDrum and 1 sample made on a Emulator for The Chauffer - until 7 and the Ragged Tiger Roland Jupiter 8, Prophet 5, Crumar Performer, and Fairlight IIcx - until Arcadia Jupiter 8, Prophet 5, Fairlight Series III (now all MIDI'd,) "a few old Korgs." and a Linn 9000 (though not on the Arcadia album.) and the Crumar Performer only on the end of Keep Me In The Dark. - until Notorious. Jupiter 8, Fairlight Series III, Roland JX10 (super JX,) and S-50 sampler along with some "old Korgs." - until Big Thing. Jupiter 8, JX10, S-50, D-50, and Akai S-900. - until Liberty. Akai samplers and that's all I know ( I think the D-50 still) - until the Wedding Album Kurzweil K2000 w/ sampling option, Ensoniq (VFX I think,) and either the JX10 or JD900. - until now Wild Boys also has Nile Rogers Synclavier. The " old Korg's," Nick refers to I believe are the Poly 800 and Poly Six. I believe he still uses the Fairlight Page R Real Time Composer for sequencing as well as the Jupiter 8, but doesn't tour with them anymore and always remember that he used lots of f/x like Roland Space Echoes and various delay, flangers and choruses. -- _____________________________________________________________________________ I I I I L F O I D C O I V C F I VCA I A D S R I I I === I . .
