Final countdown

Final countdown

2008-05-02 by honzarezna

Hello again. Question: Is it true, that main phrase of the Final 
countdown was played on Polysix? Is it possible to set this "digital 
taste" like for example PPG Wave sounds?
Thanks for answer(s)

I think that was a JX8P/DX7 combination.

Saw the video of this on utube had totaly erased
all memory of this song.  Kind of a kitch classic!
Sounds like it should be used in a Stalone move
soundtrack.

I think I read recently an OBXA was used for that song.
