notes
On Kiss Me Once (2014), a sustained synth pad under the verses and chorus for "If Only" fits the record's EDM-pop production. Built as 3 saw -12 + tri, filtered LP 12 dB/oct with cutoff around 1668 Hz, tracking the era's house style typical of Kiss Me Once's sessions rather than a single documented patch.
