A bright, cutting synth lead with a slightly robotic and metallic edge. The sound is relatively simple, but very present and memorable.

Signal Chain
Instrument: Oberheim OB-Xa
Recording Notes
- The Oberheim OB-Xa was likely used to create the lead synth sound.
- The exact patch settings would determine the final tone. Experiment with sawtooth and pulse waves, filter cutoff, and resonance to get closer.
Recreation Tips
- Start with a sawtooth wave and a slightly detuned square wave.
- Use a resonant low-pass filter to shape the tone.
- Add a touch of chorus or flanger for width and movement.
- Adjust the filter envelope and LFO to create a dynamic and expressive sound.
