Alan Wilder: Roland Jupiter-8 and PPG Wave 2.2 (unsure) - Percussion pad and corrugated iron
Comments:

'The live versions were structured in such a way that everybody could load their sounds into the Emulator in time to be ready for their first keyboard part. Sometimes extended intros were programmed to cover this problem. Since it took about 30 seconds for each bank of sounds to load, it was often touch
and go whether everyone would make it in time.' (Alan Wilder)

enough memory to store all the banks of sounds for all the songs. Each preset or new bank was loaded using a footswitch.' (Alan Wilder)

'The difference in keyboards (Akai MX1000) was due to the fact that my particular selection of musical parts required more physical keys on the
keyboard than those parts that were played by Martin and Fletch.' (Alan Wilder)

'While everyone else was sunning themselves on the beach and enjoying a well-earned rest, Daryl and I spent a week cooped up in a hotel room
in Hawaii where I taught him the entire set. He subsequently played it perfectly for the rest of the tour - pretty good eh, considering he'd hardly
ever played a keyboard before in his life.' (Alan Wilder)
