notes
A digital PCM stack keys/electric-piano-style patch fills the mid-range, low-pass filtered at 12 dB/oct, cutoff around 822 Hz with modest resonance, doubling the chord progression. Fits the Sugar Tax/Liberator rebuild, McCluskey's solo-era rig of workstation synths, rack modules and an Akai sampler.
