>The web page caption under the picture calls it a keyboard/sampling rig. I

don't question that PF used the EML gear but I'm doubtful about that being
an
accurate description of it's function. The gear certainly doesn't work with

samples as we know them now. " actually the original samples of all the
sound effects (the money sounds, the people talking)" Sound effects, yes,
but
"people talking" would be a very tricky patch for these primitive but very
cool
pieces! Maybe they used the sequencer to trigger samples stored
elsewhere? Any PF fans know more about this?<

Actually, I hadn't paid much attention to the caption! I agree with your
assessment. I think whoever wrote it may have confused sequencing and
sampling. I can see the EML 400 ideally being used for, say, "On the Run."
