notes
On Enjoy Yourself (1989), a sustained synth pad under the verses and chorus for "Tell Tale Signs" fits the record's PWL Hi-NRG pop production. Built as 3 saw -12 + tri, filtered LP 12 dB/oct with cutoff around 5378 Hz, tracking the era's house style typical of Enjoy Yourself's sessions rather than a single documented patch.
