anyone know what Alter8 used?

i'm talking mixers, synthesizers, samplers, drummachines & sequencers.

in the sleeve you can spot some mixer console (maybe a 16trk? spirit folio?) a 303 is very clear (he's holding it). and there's a synth which looks like the yamaha dx7 but I don't think it is (defently a yamaha one though)

as for sampler? who knows, probably the akai s1000

shite, just saw some of their videos

ok. 303 808 909

^^^ standard!!!

then i saw an sh101 and some other little old 1oct monopolly synth.

there was somthing which looked simular to the rolandw30 but no it won't be that.

I might of seen an rolandmc50 which is a small black sequencer.

According to Mark, most of the sounds he used are from samples taken off records. I get the impression that alot of the gear was used more for props?

Thanks for finding the Yamaha synth. I'll have to look into that synth

I heard rumours that A8 used a Jenson synth, IIRC, I've seen a 1 or 2 octave synth from them. Perhaps you've spotted that?

I prefer the 909 to the 808...the 808 looks alot cooler though

The main noises 'stabs' 'breaks' etc were samples - as used by most of the groups at the time - but the gear was deffo not props - was all ours and used on most of the releases - the small black/grey thing was probably a roland mc202 - where the bass came from for infiltr8 202 - hense the name.
The keyboards we used at pa's were Jen sx1000's - so not sure what that rumour is all about dude

So do ya still have all the gear dude?
Are ya working with software synths now at all?

I thought infiltr8202 it might was a 202.

Once I heard some samples of the 202, I had to get one. Its mucking fagic; gets windows shakin nice

Though I've never played on a 303 I think the 202 beats it in every department except squelchyness and random pattern generating.
