Hi there,

Please i need your help.

Hi Jürgen,

The base sound, as you might already know, is a CP80 with loads of chorus (1, 70%, speed around 40)
The bridge sound should be some kind of Saw lead sound, which is really fat and soft - I couldn't recreate the softness on my Stage 2...
But it's close... use a saw sound with a filter and modulation envelope. add a second saw detuned -5, voice mode mono, glide 1.3
unison 1, chorus 2 100% speed 25
You might need the second panel if you want to have Chorus on both sounds.

I hope this helps you - I was kinda curious when I read the post and wanted to try very quickly on my NS2!

Thanks for reminding me of this one, I hadn’t listened to it in a long time...

If you don’t have a guitarist with a 12-string electric handy, you might consider adding a sample to get that “twang”, and some thickness. There’s only a few spots where both do not sound together (e.g., CP80 speaks alone in the high fill leading into “I... I... I...”)

And then there’s the occasional horn stab.

Check out the re-mastered version of this song, much more aggressive. One of my fav Genesis albums.

Bridge = brass + strings.... I like the CS20 string sample (Bank A) and the pop brass sample (Bank B). Add reverb, chorus and compression.
Piano is just your CP-70 electric piano sound that is on one of your grand piano banks near the end. Add chorus, leslie (slow, 0 drive), reverb and compression and you should be good to go.
Good luck and have fun!
