I know they were a duo out of France, and write music in an electropop / ambient style which is the info I got from Wiki. What my main interest is what sort of gear did/ do they use to get those really smooth, silky (near cosmic) sounding synth pads in most of their music. Thanks in advance for Any ...

Ok. . . . I get it, not that interesting for ya.

Well, it's always nice to know where ya stand at least.

Thanks for viewing anyway

As a musician, I'm typically curious about the gear used that makes the music i like to listen to. Below is a list of Synth gear used by "Argen Lucassen" of Ayreon. He's Dutch, and crafts some of the most interesting prog-rock-ish style music. I wish I had the coin to add the gear (below) to my coll...

Talking vintage stuff, I'd have to say. . . . The Prophet 600. . . . . . great analog board As cheezy as this sounds, the Casio CZ 101 was always a fun little board to midi up to.

Kewl sounding board for sure.

What kind of synth was used on the "Pieces of Eight" album for the into piece "The message" just before lord of the rings. Google was useless in my search. Also, I was curious if anyone knows what RUSH used for that Brilliant intro on the 2112 album. I do know that the band mainly used Oberheim in ...
