アルバム「ソリッド・ステイト・サヴァイアー」を作成しているところだね。それにしても坂本氏のキボードの技術はすごいよね。

MAN it's so crazy that all that big bulky machinery with buttons is what they used to make music. IT'S AWESUM!

I think the computer (sequencer) is indeed Rolan MC-8: it was released 1977, and since they're demoing songs from Solid State Survivor (1979), it would make sense.

I believe Sakamoto did not use the fairlight until later, when he was solo. Maybe starting with "b-2 Unit". But, from what I remember, that did not feature the Fairlight yet either.

I think the computer they were talking about was the sequencer that they were using. I believe it is one of the few (8) early Roland micocomposer, later to become the MC-8.You see him typing in the notes and note lengths. That sequencer controls the moog system and the other synths by translating the note data to CV.

That's moog III-C^^The 1st modular system made by moog.inc=D

MIDI didn't come out until 1983. But they did have samplers back then; more than likely a Fairlight or something similar with maybe a few CV/Gate sequencers

When they said computer, it made me wonder what kind of computer system they had back then. Did they have MIDI then?
