notes
The synth fx layer builds the intro tension on "Walk This Sleigh" on Life Thru a Lens, built from the Juno-106, Prophet-5 and Mellotron with orchestra documented for this era's production (Guy Chambers and Steve Power). The waveform stack is layered rather than single-oscillator, so the part reads as thick in the mix without crowding the vocal.
