    Edgar Froese:

    EMS VSC3
    atop Mellotron Mark IV
    Unknown box (small Moog Modular?)
    little UHER Mixer atop the black box

    But have you noticed the broken chair Christopher Franke has there and in many other pictures from that time? He must have loved this chair.

    keep on turning these knobs

  2. The oblong black box sitting on top of Froese's Mellotron Mk IV is a Synthanorma sequencer.

    Klaus Schulze used an identical model during the mid '70s, and Kraftwerk had a heavily modified version.

    Here's a better view of Froese's Synthanorma:

  5. It also looks like Franke has an ARP 2600 next to the 'Big Moog'. You can only see the back, and I'm not sure if the keyboard is present somewhere, or if he's triggering it someother way. But I'm pretty sure that's what it is. I wish TD still used all this gear. They might still be an interesting band...

  6. no, I'm wrong. It's not an Arp- I was looking at the picture stretched to fit my screen. It looks like a Moog module. My bad.
