Recording Notes

• The synth sound is the central focus, driving the song's distinctive feel.
• The chorus effect widens the sound and adds depth.
• The original recording might have used a combination of direct input and subtle room miking to capture the synth's character.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a sawtooth wave on a synthesizer.
• Add a subtle detune to the oscillators for a richer sound.
• Use a chorus effect (like the Roland Dimension D or a similar plugin) to widen the sound.
• Adjust the filter and resonance to taste.
