What was JMJ Masterkeyboard at his Croissy Studio?

Hi all,

recently I have seen here some interesting pics of JMJ studio, probably dated 1991-1993
In some of these pics I noticed the same masterkeyboard pictured in the German Keyboard Mag interview and in the French KB one's (at the times of Chronologie)


Image

Image


I saw the Masterkeyboard is in its Flycase and a has light blue logo; that made me think of the Elka MK88.
What do you think?


Image


Another curious thing is the rack furniture upgrade... in these pics there is a white piece of furniture with three 12 rack spaces, while in later pics you can see a dark one with three 18 units rack spaces...

@Vinceblood: Confirmed the presence in JMJ's rack for several years of:

- Korg M1Rex
- Roland MKS-30 and its programmer PG-200
(plus all the Studio Electronics rack versions of the Oberheim Sem, Minimoog and SCI Prophet Five...)

Cheers

P.

I think it's the Elka MK88 indeed. Was used by JM a lot at that time.

It's actually a great little keyboard. I've got the PT-1 (same sounds) and put thru some very wet delay and reverb, it makes some great monophonic pads.
