Najbardziej zadziwił mnie Rush. I darcie się Gahana w refrenie WIMS.
Nie miałem pojęcia, że utwory są w taki sposób zbudowane.

Is the emulator your main tool?
Alan: Correct. Korg fills the position of the second keys, especially in cases where the last sound cannot be adapted to the Emulator patch.
How many discs do you change in the emulator during the concert?
Basically I have a disk for each song and in each song I control four or five sounds via the keys. The emulator is a very useful tool in this regard, just perfect except for the disk loading time, which takes about 20 seconds. This is probably its only drawback when used at concerts. This actually slows down our work, but it remains a very comfortable tool. And above all, they are very good keys that literally fit in the hand.
Do you also use the Emulator sequencer a lot?
Not in the studio, but I like working with it at home, but in the studio we run things through a Friend-Chip SMPTE timer or Synclavier sequencer. This is because the Synclavier does not want to connect with the Friend-Chip, so we go directly through the Synclavier. But the new songs were programmed into the BBC's computer and then played via the Friend-Chip.
What drum sound do you use?
We basically sample our own batteries. When we start recording an album, the first days, we only do samples. We rent drums and percussion and sample it all in different spaces. Later, we go through our sound database and look for sounds that would match the songs we are currently working on. Sometimes we rely on devices like the Roland TR-808 because they can provide very good sensations. It’s a very precise drum machine, perhaps the most precise.
