I'm wondering about the retro synth lead on "Edge of the Edge" by Panda Bear and Sonic Boom that comes in at 1:44



It's a simple sound, but do you have any ideas about what specific synth it could be or what technique gives it that unique retro vibe?

The oscillator is just a saw but it needs an LFO on the fine tune of the pitch to give it some wobble.
You could add an effect like RC20 or a few others but an lfo works nice too
A good bit of reverb and the filter set to taste.

It's not 100% but pretty close so fine tune to taste

Thanks, that's a nice little patch that gets most of the way there!
