Recording Notes

• The Yamaha DX7's digital FM synthesis was crucial for creating the unique, evolving textures of the synth pad.
• Doubling or layering the synth part can enhance the richness and width of the sound.
• Slight detuning between layers adds a chorus-like effect, contributing to the dreamy character.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a basic sawtooth or sine wave and experiment with FM synthesis to create complex harmonics.
• Use subtle chorus or ensemble effects to thicken the sound and add movement.
• Apply gentle reverb to create a sense of space and depth.
• Layer multiple instances of the synth with slightly different settings for a richer, more complex sound.
