FWIW, Joey Tempest mentioned that they used ELEVEN synths for the original „Final Countdown“, so I’m not sure it counts against the Stage 3 to need samples to get there.

There were used ROLAND JX8P + Yamaha module with 8 patch slots. So possibly they used all 8.

The "Yamaha module" would undoubtedly be a TX816 — which offers up to eight modules of 6-operator FM, with 16 voices each.

I'm not sure there is ANY hardware synth on the market at the moment that gets close to that.

Yamaha Montage, 128 voices (max) on FM-X (8-operator FM) on up to 16 parts: close enough? ;)

Here are some files if someone needs it for collection.

(MKS 80 sample+ NS 3 original French Horns sample+ Program)
Sounds amazing... there are some posts for the final countdown for NS2, but this one is really nice.
So little request: is it possible to get the same sound for NS2?
