MOTM

> Anyone remember Front242's "big hit", _Headhunter_v3.0_ (off the _Front_By_Front_ album, circa 1988)?  I've been listening to it a bit recently, and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to make that deepish cello-type sound (kicks in at 26 seconds into the track, and nearly solo'ed at 3:26) (on the MOTM and/or A6, of course!).  I suppose it might have been a sample, since it seems to only have a handful of pitches, but given the relative simplicity of the sound, I'm sure it could be synthesized.  There's a quality about the sound which my lack of practical synth expireince prevents me from grasping or creating.

i'm pretty convinced it's a sample, possibly through some sort of filter.
it sounds samply, plus the album was made  in the heyday of sampler use in
industrial music. to reproduce it, i might take a cello or some other solo
string preset from a k2000 or something and run it through a 420, or
perhaps two in series (hp-lp).

bleep.
out.
