And I'm also setting the questions at random times - unquantised...

What's the link between these two:

(by the way, I'm trying to set questions that can't be googled, hope it works...)

For a whopping 5 points, tell me which 2010 album has this synth roll-call:

EMS Polysynthi
EMS Synthi A
Yamaha CS 60
Roland TR-606
EML 101
Casio MT-68
Casio CT-410V
EMS VC3 Putney
Roland TR-808
Roland System 100
Roland SH-101
Korg Poly Ensemble
Moog Rogue
Synare
Moog CDX
Omnichord
Sequential Circuits Prophet-600
Casio ST-400

...?

Easy!! The up-coming "4x4=12" album from deadmau5

I can't be bothered to rename them but I trust you ;)

a good score would be 2/3 correct without cheating ...
OK without looking I've got three.

b) Fairlight CMI
e) SAW Studio - easily the ugliest DAW ever, also most overpriced.
f) Arp Odyssey - later version, considered the weaker sounding of the two.

I wanna say d) is a Manly EQ but..?
and a)looks really familiar.

Heh, well, technically, Bavarian Electorate of the Holy Roman Empire in what is now Austria versus the Baden region of the HRE in what is now Germany... feel free to guess again, though :)
