Recording Notes

• The Prophet-5 was likely used to create a layered, detuned pad sound.
• Chorus or phasing effects were probably added to enhance the stereo width and create a swirling texture.
• Reverb would have been added in the mix to give the synth sound space and depth.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a sawtooth or square wave on a polyphonic synthesizer.
• Slightly detune multiple oscillators or layers to create a chorusing effect.
• Add a chorus or phaser pedal/plugin to further enhance the swirling texture.
• Use a reverb plugin to create a sense of space and depth.
• Experiment with filter cutoff and resonance to create movement and interest in the sound.
