notes
'Cry So Easy' from Wonderland (1986): a sustained analogue-style pad filling out the harmony, built in the style of ARP 2600 and Roland System 100 for bass/lead, Sequential Pro-One for mono leads, Yamaha CS-80 for pads, Emulator II sampler for hits and strings. The patch leans on 3 saw -8 detuned through a LP 12 dB/oct filter, shaped for the track's ballad feel.
