notes
a melodic synth lead doubles or answers the vocal line on "Always", built the way Rodney Jerkins, Bryan-Michael Cox and The-Dream's Fantom-X and Reason-built keyboard programming would have cut it for this non-album single (2020). Waveform: 2 saw detuned unison3, filtered through a LP 12 dB/oct stage around 2740 Hz; the envelope (23.5/300.4/0.657/265.1 ms) is slower and swelling to sit under Mary J. Blige's vocal without crowding it.
