PYT vox lead
Any idea how the vox lead in the second half of the intro was done originally or how to reproduce that sound?

Hello,
Michael Boddicker played the vox sample on an E-mu Emulator (1st version). The same sound also appears
as a countermelody under the chorus of "Human Nature". The sample sounds like it was recorded direct
from Michael Jackson's voice.
The Emulator had a sound of it's own, but you could probably get away with a decent emulation (no pun intended)
on something like an Ensoniq Mirage.
Early eight-bit samplers didn't use multi-samples, and the formants didn't track. You could also possibly pull
off a version of it with a Roland V-Synth, as even though it's 16-bit and digital, it doesn't multisample
(unlike most modern samplers). You'd only have to turn off the formant tracking, then use a cosm block
(or effects) to bit-reduce the audio.
Obviously, you won't get the same sound because the original sample sounds like it was captured from MJ.
Regards,
