So beautifully played Mr Schilling... I ma halfway through with my final DDRM Rev. 1 (keeping this one)

An incredible atmosphere. Congratulations

Awesome soundscape, really from finest! I like it very much!

Would you agree that it has less low end end or sounds less thick vs the CS-80 ? You clearly nailed the expression which is hard to say the least ! Must feel great to be vangelis for just 3:52 :)

(Also check out the Arturia CS-80V version I did here: https://soundcloud.com/paul-schilling/blade-runner-blues-lead-demo )
An improvisation on Vangelis' stunning track played on Deckard's Dream with VP-03 string machine and Rhodes backing. No pitch bend wheel used - the bend effect is a combination of the CS-80/DD "Initial Bend" and the Sustain II voice mode.

If you have a DD and are interested in this patch please get in touch, I have included it in my sound bank.

The Blade Runner Blues lead / harmonica patch is one of the most expressive patches Vangelis ever did on the CS-80. Among other things it features sensitive and fine-tuned velocity and aftertouch response, with quite different settings for each of the two synth lines I and II. Since it is not directly derived from the CS-80's preset buttons, as many of his other go-to patches were, and especially because it has so many expressive nuances, it is not a straightforward patch to recreate.
