notes
Wide detuned pad sustaining the harmony under Vision of Love, Kurzweil K2000 and Yamaha DX7 II providing slow-attack strings/choir character typical of Mariah Carey. Filter and amp envelopes are both slow so the pad breathes with the vocal rather than punching through it. Warm string-machine wash under the gospel-tinged vocal runs.
