- A chorus effect, possibly from a Boss CE-1, was used to add depth and widen the stereo image.
- Reverb, likely from a Lexicon 224, was added to create a sense of space and atmosphere.
Recreation Tips

- Apply a generous amount of reverb to create a dreamy and atmospheric feel.
- Experiment with filter cutoff and resonance settings to shape the tone.
