My understanding is that he used a lot of oscillators with PWM, and fed that through some Roland delay units for that super-space string sound. I don't know much about the Moog String Filter. I haven't played his "Sound Creature" album in about 20 years... I'm pretty sure he 'explains' on that album how he gets his classic string sound. If we're talking about the same sound, it's definitely not Mellotron. In fact, the only easily-identifiable Mellotron sound I can think of on Tomita albums is the occasional male chorus. If it is a bunch of narrow-bandpass filters with separate outs, mightn't we make one from a battery of MOTM Triple-Resonant Filters...? -----Original Message----- From: Dave Bradley [mailto:daveb@...] Speaking of strings, does anyone know if the killer strings Tomita synthesized on 'Snowflakes Are Dancing' was due primarily to the Moog String Filter, or were other factors at play
