E-mu Emulator III

The E-mu Emulator III (a.k.a. EIII) is a sampling synthesizer, which succeeded the E-mu Emulator II. Tony Banks, Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins owned Emulator III's.

Tony Banks' Emulator III
Tony Banks bought an Emulator III in the late 1980s, which he used on the Bankstatement record alongside the Emulator II.

Phil Collins' Emulator III
Phil Collins had an Emulator III (EIII) during the late 1980s. For the ...But Seriously album, he made demos mainly by sequencing the EIII and programming drum machines. For the actual recording, sometimes the demos would be transferred. Or the EIII sequences would be recreated, and these were triggered and driven off with the Roland SBX-80 Sync Box, alongside the drum machines.
