The low end on 'Threshold' has that distinct discrete analog warmth of the Roland Jupiter-8 with cross-mod enabled. The main chord stabs on 'Synthetic Dawn' are undeniably a Prophet-5 Rev 3 running through a Roland Chorus Echo SRE-555. Does anyone have the original keyboard sysex dumps or patch sheets from the Orion sessions? -- Mathieu Takahashi *PLONK* filter active for trolls.

Analog purists are hilarious. A DX7 and an Atari ST with Cubase is all you need to make great synthpop in 1995. Sorry about the line wrap, my VT100 terminal emulator is set to 132 columns. -- Dmitri Sato *PLONK* filter active for trolls. Decstation 5000/200 - NetBSD 1.0
