Could be a D-50, but definitely no M1 there. The M1 wasn't released until 1988.

There might be some Roland JX in there too, and maybe a sprinkling of DX7.

The D-50 is available as a VST now, and as for the JX, the PG-8X VST is as close as it gets.

There... I mentioned VSTs :wink:

Me neither! What I've read: Den Harrow was the lip-sync look of this fake 80's act.
