notes
Lead part for "Gestern Nacht" on Feuer und Flamme (1985). No isolated stem or interview documents the exact patch, so this is hand-tuned to the album's known rig: Yamaha DX7, PPG Wave 2.2, E-mu Emulator, Oberheim OB-Xa over Linn 9000, produced by Jörn-Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen. Voiced and filtered to sit as a lead in a mid-tempo pop arrangement typical of the 1985 sessions, where the band's rig turned more digital around the new DX7 and Emulator.
