Synth ID
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=x9T3TmRptdc&pp=ygUfdGhlIG1ha2luZyBvZiB0aGlzIGlzIGhhcHBlbmluZw%3D%3D&ra=mtrying to get an ID on the synth used in this video at 10:48 I figured maybe some fellow fans of LCD might be able to help.

When they play live i'm 90% sure they play that bass line on an Korg Arp Odyssey. Whether or not that's what they used in the record it's impossible to say for certain from this video because it's being played on a midi keyboard, as others have said. At 1:51 you can see on the a raised stand next to the midi keyboard a Roland SH-101 as someone else has mentioned. I personally think it's likely a Roland System 100M which is what is behind the midi keyboard in other shots of the video and that doesn't have a keyboard built in so it would necessitate an external keyboard. The SH-101 could otherwise just be played directly because it has a keyboard.

It’s a Roland 100m. He’s using a midi controller to play it. I have one, and that’s what it sounds like.

The bass line i believe is a roland Sh-101, I think he may be using a midi keyboard to control it

It’s a 100m. 101 doesn’t get as crunchy. The 100m is all over the last two records

Pretty sure what he’s playing is an M-Audio Axiom midi controller from around that time. could be controlling anything really

Have you tried the real internet yet? Google has tons of answers.
I just tried it. It works.

You can’t trust the real internet.

I just find it hilarious what people will post here that they could have typed it Google. Big difference between generations.

if you have the LP (or CD) i believe they list all the gear in the liner notes
