notes
CS-80 polyphonic aftertouch vibrato and ribbon bends define the brassy lead; piano plays the theme over it. On this engine: two saws plus a square through a slow-opening LP12 around 1.8 kHz, an aftertouch-style sine vibrato on pitch, and a touch of glide to mimic ribbon-controller pitch slides, all bathed in Lexicon 224 hall.
