Tears for fears Mad World - Synths

[80snostalgia]

Anybody know what Synthesizers were used for this particular song? As there were quite a few different Synth sounds I liked on it.

Sequential Prophet 5 all over their stuff at that time... that would be my guess.

Interesting article here, doesn't mention what the 'synthesiser' was, but does tell you the intro drum machine was a Roland CR-78.

Did you see this old thread about synths used on The Hurting (the album this single appeared on):

Thanks for your help, I'm a fan of the Prophet 5, I've had a good look at the article.
I did ask Curt on Twitter (the official Curt) he didn't answer, must be a, sign he can't remember. I do get positive feed back by a few other Official celebs.

Just had a look, very impresive line up of Synthesizers. I wouldn't mind which it was.
