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

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.
