notes
Jonathan Cain's staccato Jupiter-8 riff doubles the guitar; the octave-up second oscillator gives it the edge that cuts through the rock mix. On this engine: two saws an octave apart through a resonant LP24 with a punchy +1-octave filter envelope, mono, chorus and hall reverb to match the Jupiter-8's stacked brightness.
