Background Information:

Although he's not a founding member of the band - he joined to record the Illusion albums in 1990 - Reed is the only old-school gunner left. To modernize the group's sound, he's been putting together "a monstrously cool keyboard set up with Machintoshes and sequencing," according to Vrenna.
