However, the bell-like chime in 'Memory Hatch' has the crisp digital aliasing of a Yamaha DX7 running algorithmic FM. Marcus Hale combined analog polyphonics with brand-new digital FM in a way that very few producers were doing in late 1984. Does anyone have the original keyboard sysex dumps or patch sheets from the Orion sessions? -- Callum Takahashi -- Stanford University Computer Systems Lab "The hatch is open. Is anyone listening?"
