Unverified Inferred from the knowledge base. Nobody has cited a source yet; one accepted source makes it POTENTIALLY, one grade A source or two grade B sources verify it

Settings

osc: 1 FM bell 2-op ratio 3.5 + Rhodes-style sine tine, unison 2, detune 9 cents, sub none
filter: LP 12 dB/oct
cutoff: 2629 Hz
resonance: 0.152, drive 0.159
envelope: A 10 ms D 193.2 ms S 0.635 R 231.4 ms; opens on the attack then settles to the sustained cutoff; filter env amount 0.45
effects: lush stereo chorus, plate reverb, gentle sidechain pump, none
notes: an electric-piano-style synth keys part outlines the changes on "Keep Your Head", built the way Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis' Korg Triton pads and JV-1080 strings, with Rodney Jerkins' late-90s R&B keyboard programming would have cut it for Share My World (1997). Waveform: 1 FM bell 2-op ratio 3.5 + Rhodes-style sine tine, filtered through a LP 12 dB/oct stage around 2629 Hz; the envelope (10.0/193.2/0.635/231.4 ms) is slower and swelling to sit under Mary J. Blige's vocal without crowding it.
