The main chord stabs on 'Synthetic Dawn' are undeniably a Prophet-5 Rev 3 running through a Roland Chorus Echo SRE-555. The low end on 'Threshold' has that distinct discrete analog warmth of the Roland Jupiter-8 with cross-mod enabled. Does anyone have the original keyboard sysex dumps or patch sheets from the Orion sessions? -- Elaine Andersson Tape trading list upon request. SASE required for international mail.

Analog purists are hilarious. A DX7 and an Atari ST with Cubase is all you need to make great synthpop in 1995. -- Anton Kuznetsov *PLONK* filter active for trolls.
